1[] Αλληλουια. Αινειτε τον Κυριον, διοτι ειναι αγαθος· διοτι το ελεος αυτου μενει εις τον αιωνα.
1Hallelujah! Give ye thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.
2Τις δυναται να κηρυξη τα κραταια εργα του Κυριου, να καμη ακουστας πασας τας αινεσεις αυτου;
2Who can utter the mighty acts of Jehovah? [who] can shew forth all his praise?
3Μακαριοι οι φυλαττοντες κρισιν, οι πραττοντες δικαιοσυνην εν παντι καιρω.
3Blessed are they that keep justice, [and] he that doeth righteousness at all times.
4Μνησθητι μου, Κυριε, εν τη ευμενεια τη προς τον λαον σου· επισκεφθητι με εν τη σωτηρια σου·
4Remember me, O Jehovah, with [thy] favour toward thy people; visit me with thy salvation:
5δια να βλεπω το καλον των εκλεκτων σου, δια να ευφραινωμαι εν τη ευφροσυνη του εθνους σου, δια να καυχωμαι μετα της κληρονομιας σου.
5That I may see the prosperity of thy chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the joy of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.
6[] Ημαρτησαμεν μετα των πατερων ημων· ηνομησαμεν, ησεβησαμεν.
6We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.
7Οι πατερες ημων εν Αιγυπτω δεν ενοησαν τα θαυμασια σου· δεν ενεθυμηθησαν το πληθος του ελεους σου, και σε παρωργισαν εν τη θαλασση, εν τη Ερυθρα θαλασση.
7Our fathers in Egypt considered not thy wondrous works; they remembered not the multitude of thy loving-kindnesses; but they rebelled at the sea, at the Red Sea.
8Και ομως εσωσεν αυτους δια το ονομα αυτου, δια να καμη γνωστα τα κραταια εργα αυτου.
8Yet he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make known his might.
9Και επετιμησε την Ερυθραν θαλασσαν, και εξηρανθη· και διεβιβασεν αυτους δια των αβυσσων ως δι' ερημου·
9And he rebuked the Red Sea, and it dried up; and he led them through the deeps as through a wilderness.
10και εσωσεν αυτους εκ της χειρος του μισουντος αυτους, και ελυτρωσεν αυτους εκ της χειρος του εχθρου.
10And he saved them from the hand of him that hated [them], and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
11Και τα υδατα κατεκαλυψαν τους εχθρους αυτων· δεν απελειφθη ουδε εις εξ αυτων.
11And the waters covered their oppressors: there was not one of them left.
12Τοτε επιστευσαν εις τους λογους αυτου· εψαλαν την αινεσιν αυτου.
12Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.
13[] Πλην ταχεως ελησμονησαν τα εργα αυτου· δεν περιεμειναν την βουλην αυτου·
13They soon forgot his works; they waited not for his counsel:
14Αλλ' επεθυμησαν επιθυμιαν εν τη ερημω, και επειρασαν τον Θεον εν τη ανυδρω.
14And they lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted ùGod in the desert.
15Και εδωκεν εις αυτους την αιτησιν αυτων· απεστειλεν ομως εις αυτους νοσον θανατηφορον.
15Then he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
16Εφθονησαν ετι τον Μωυσην εν τω στρατοπεδω και τον Ααρων τον αγιον του Κυριου.
16And they envied Moses in the camp, [and] Aaron, the saint of Jehovah.
17Η γη ηνοιξε και κατεπιε τον Δαθαν, και εσκεπασε την συναγωγην του Αβειρων·
17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram;
18και πυρ εξηφθη εν τη συναγωγη αυτων· η φλοξ κατεκαυσε τους ασεβεις.
18And fire was kindled in their company; a flame burned up the wicked.
19Κατεσκευασαν μοσχον εν Χωρηβ, και προσεκυνησαν το χωνευτον·
19They made a calf in Horeb, and did homage to a molten image;
20και μετηλλαξαν την δοξαν αυτων εις ομοιωμα βοος τρωγοντος χορτον.
20And they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.
21Ελησμονησαν τον Θεον τον σωτηρα αυτων τον ποιησαντα μεγαλεια εν Αιγυπτω,
21They forgot ùGod their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,
22θαυμασια εν γη Χαμ, φοβερα εν τη Ερυθρα θαλασση.
22Wondrous works in the land of Ham, terrible things by the Red Sea.
23Και ειπε να εξολοθρευση αυτους, αν ο Μωυσης ο εκλεκτος αυτου δεν ιστατο εν τη θραυσει ενωπιον αυτου, δια να αποστρεψη την οργην αυτου, ωστε να μη αφανιση αυτους.
23And he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses, his chosen, stood before him in the breach, to turn away his fury, lest he should destroy [them].
24Κατεφρονησαν ετι την γην την επιθυμητην· δεν επιστευσαν εις τον λογον αυτου·
24And they despised the pleasant land; they believed not his word,
25και εγογγυσαν εν ταις σκηναις αυτων· δεν εισηκουσαν της φωνης του Κυριου.
25But murmured in their tents: they hearkened not unto the voice of Jehovah.
26Δια τουτο εσηκωσε την χειρα αυτου κατ' αυτων, δια να καταστρεψη αυτους εν τη ερημω.
26And he lifted up his hand to them, that he would make them fall in the wilderness;
27και να στρεψη το σπερμα αυτων μεταξυ των εθνων και να διασκορπιση αυτους εις τους τοπους.
27And that he would make their seed fall among the nations, and disperse them through the countries.
28Και προσεκολληθησαν εις τον Βεελ-φεγωρ, και εφαγον θυσιας νεκρων·
28And they joined themselves unto Baal-Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead;
29και παρωξυναν αυτον εν τοις εργοις αυτων, ωστε εφωρμησεν επ' αυτους η πληγη.
29And they provoked [him] to anger with their doings; and a plague broke out among them.
30Αλλα σταθεις ο Φινεες εκαμε κρισιν· και η πληγη επαυσε·
30Then stood up Phinehas and executed judgment, and the plague was stayed;
31και ελογισθη εις αυτον δια δικαιοσυνην, εις γενεαν και γενεαν εως αιωνος.
31And that was reckoned unto him for righteousness, from generation to generation, for evermore.
32Και παρωξυναν αυτον εν τοις υδασι της αντιλογιας, και επαθε κακως ο Μωυσης δι' αυτους·
32And they moved him to wrath at the waters of Meribah, and it went ill with Moses on their account;
33διοτι παρωργισαν το πνευμα αυτου, ωστε ελαλησεν αστοχαστως δια των χειλεων αυτου.
33For they provoked his spirit, so that he spoke unadvisedly with his lips.
34[] Δεν εξωλοθρευσαν τα εθνη τα οποια ο Κυριος προσεταξεν εις αυτους·
34They did not destroy the peoples, as Jehovah commanded them;
35αλλ' εσμιχθησαν μετα των εθνων και εμαθον τα εργα αυτων·
35But they mingled with the nations, and learned their works;
36και ελατρευσαν τα γλυπτα αυτων, τα οποια εγειναν παγις εις αυτους·
36And they served their idols; and they were a snare unto them:
37και εθυσιασαν τους υιους αυτων και τας θυγατερας αυτων εις τα δαιμονια·
37And they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto demons,
38Και εχυσαν αιμα αθωον, το αιμα των υιων αυτων και των θυγατερων αυτων τους οποιους εθυσιασαν εις τα γλυπτα της Χανααν· και εμιανθη η γη εξ αιματων.
38And shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with blood.
39Και εμολυνθησαν με τα εργα αυτων, και επορνευσαν με τας πραξεις αυτων.
39And they were defiled with their works, and went a-whoring in their doings.
40Δια τουτο η οργη του Κυριου εξηφθη κατα του λαου αυτου, και εβδελυχθη την κληρονομιαν αυτου,
40Then was the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he abhorred his inheritance;
41Και παρεδωκεν αυτους εις τας χειρας των εθνων· και εκυριευσαν αυτους οι μισουντες αυτους.
41And he gave them into the hand of the nations; and they that hated them ruled over them:
42Και εθλιψαν αυτους οι εχθροι αυτων, και εταπεινωθησαν υπο τας χειρας αυτων.
42And their enemies oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.
43Πολλακις ελυτρωσεν αυτους, αλλ' αυτοι παρωργισαν αυτον με τας βουλας αυτων· διο εταπεινωθησαν δια την ανομιαν αυτων.
43Often did he deliver them; but as for them they provoked [him] by their counsel, and they were brought low by their iniquity.
44Πλην επεβλεψεν επι την θλιψιν αυτων, οτε ηκουσε την κραυγην αυτων·
44But he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry;
45και ενεθυμηθη την προς αυτους διαθηκην αυτου και μετεμεληθη κατα το πληθος του ελεους αυτου.
45And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving-kindnesses;
46Και εκαμεν αυτους να ευρωσιν ελεος ενωπιον παντων των αιχμαλωτισαντων αυτους.
46And he caused them to find compassion of all those that had carried them captives.
47Σωσον ημας, Κυριε ο Θεος ημων, και συναγαγε ημας απο των εθνων, δια να δοξολογωμεν το ονομα σου το αγιον και να καυχωμεθα εις την αινεσιν σου.
47Save us, Jehovah our God, and gather us from among the nations, to give thanks unto thy holy name, [and] to triumph in thy praise.
48Ευλογητος Κυριος ο Θεος του Ισραηλ, απο του αιωνος και εως του αιωνος· και ας λεγη πας ο λαος, Αμην. Αλληλουια.
48Blessed be Jehovah the God of Israel, from eternity and to eternity! And let all the people say, Amen! Hallelujah!
