Greek Septuagint

1 Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ᾠδὴ ψαλμοῦ ἀναστάσεως. Ἀλαλάξατε τῷ Θεῷ, πᾶσα ἡ γῆ,

2 ψάλατε δὴ τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ, δότε δόξαν αἰνέσει αὐτοῦ.

3 Εἴπατε τῷ Θεῷ ὡς φοβερὰ τὰ ἔργα σου; ἐν τῷ πλήθει τῆς δυνάμεώς σου ψεύσονταί σε οἱ ἐχθροί σου.

4 Πᾶσα ἡ γῆ προσκυνησάτωσάν σοι, καὶ ψαλάτωσάν σοι, ψαλάτωσαν τῷ ὀνόματί σου· διάψαλμα.

5 Δεῦτε καὶ ἴδετε τὰ ἔργα τοῦ Θεοῦ, φοβερὸς ἐν βουλαῖς ὑπὲρ τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν ἀνθρώπων.

6 Ὁ μεταστρέφων τὴν θάλασσαν εἰς ξηρὰν, ἐν ποταμῷ διελεύσονται ποδί· ἐκεῖ εὐφρανθησόμεθα ἐπʼ αὐτῷ,

7 τῷ δεσπόζοντι ἐν τῇ δυναστείᾳ αὐτοῦ τοῦ αἰῶνος· οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη ἐπιβλέπουσιν, οἱ παραπικραίνοντες μὴ ὑψούσθωσαν ἐν ἑαυτοῖς· διάψαλμα.

8 Εὐλογεῖτε ἔθνη τὸν Θεὸν ἡμῶν, καὶ ἀκουτίσατε τὴν φωνὴν τῆς αἰνέσεως αὐτοῦ,

9 τοῦ θεμένου τὴν ψυχήν μου εἰς ζωὴν, καὶ μὴ δόντος εἰς σάλον τοὺς πόδας μου.

10 Ὅτι ἐδοκίμασας ἡμᾶς ὁ Θεὸς, ἐπύρωσας ἡμᾶς ὡς πυροῦται τὸ ἀργύριον.

11 Εἰσήγαγες ἡμᾶς εἰς τὴν παγίδα, ἔθου θλίψεις ἐπὶ τὸν νῶτον ἡμῶν,

12 ἐπεβίβασας ἀνθρώπους ἐπὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς ἡμῶν· διήλθομεν διὰ πυρὸς καὶ ὕδατος, καὶ ἐξήγαγες ἡμᾶς εἰς ἀναψυχήν.

13 Εἰσελεύσομαι εἰς τὸν οἶκόν σου ἐν ὁλοκαυτώμασιν, ἀποδώσω σοι τὰς εὐχάς μου,

14 ἃς διέστειλε τὰ χείλη μου, καὶ ἐλάλησε τὸ στόμα μου ἐν τῇ θλίψει μου.

15 Ὁλοκαυτώματα μεμυελωμένα ἀνοίσω σοι μετὰ θυμιάματος καὶ κριῶν, ποιήσω σοι βόας μετὰ χιμάρων· διάψαλμα.

16 Δεῦτε ἀκούσατε, καὶ διηγήσομαι, πάντες οἱ φοβούμενοι τὸν Θεὸν, ὅσα ἐποίησε τῇ ψυχῇ μου.

17 Πρὸς αὐτὸν τῷ στόματί μου ἐκέκραξα, καὶ ὕψωσα ὑπὸ τὴν γλῶσσάν μου.

18 Ἀδικίαν εἰ ἐθεώρουν ἐν καρδίᾳ μου, μὴ εἰσακουσάτω Κύριος.

19 Διὰ τοῦτο εἰσήκουσέ μου ὁ Θεὸς, προσέσχε τῇ φωνῇ τῆς προσευχῆς μου.

20 Εὐλογητὸς ὁ Θεὸς, ὃς οὐκ ἀπέστησε τὴν προσευχήν μου, καὶ τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ.

Brenton English

1 For the end, a Song of a Psalm of resurrection. Shout unto God, all the earth.

2 O sing praises to his name; give glory to his praise.

3 Say unto God, How awful are thy works! through the greatness of thy power thine enemies shall lie to thee.

4 Let all the earth worship thee, and sing to thee; let them sing to thy name. Pause.

5 Come and behold the works of God; he is terrible in his counsels beyond the children of men.

6 Who turns the sea into dry land; they shall go through the river on foot; there shall we rejoice in him,

7 who by his power is Lord over the age, his eyes look upon the nations; let not them that provoke him be exalted in themselves. Pause.

has dominion for ever.

8 Bless our God, ye Gentiles, and make the voice of his praise to be heard;

9 who quickens my soul in life, and does not suffer my feet to be moved.

10 For thou, O God, hast proved us; thou hast tried us with fire as silver is tried.

11 Thou broughtest us into the snare; thou laidest afflictions on our back.

12 Thou didst mount men upon our heads; we went through fire and water; but thou broughtest us out into a place of refreshment.

13 I will go into thine house with whole-burnt-offerings; I will pay thee my vows,

14 which my lips framed, and my mouth uttered in my affliction.

15 I will offer to thee whole-burnt-sacrifices full of marrow, with incense and rams; I will sacrifice to thee oxen with goats. Pause.

16 Come, hear, and I will tell, all ye that fear God, how great things he has done for my soul.

17 I cried to him with my mouth, and exalted him with my tongue.

18 If I have regarded iniquity in my heart, let not the Lord hearken to me .

19 Therefore God has hearkened to me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.

20 Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor his mercy from me.
