ΨΑΛΜΟΙ - Salmi - Psalms 83

LXX	NEW JERUSALEM
1 εις το τελος υπερ των ληνων τοις υιοις κορε ψαλμος	1 [Song Psalm Of Asaph] God, do not remain silent, do not stay quiet or unmoved, God!
2 ως αγαπητα τα σκηνωματα σου κυριε των δυναμεων	2 See how your enemies are in uproar, how those who hate you are rearing their heads.
3 επιποθει και εκλειπει η ψυχη μου εις τας αυλας του κυριου η καρδια μου και η σαρξ μου ηγαλλιασαντο επι θεον ζωντα	3 They are laying plans against your people, conspiring against those you cherish;
4 και γαρ στρουθιον ευρεν εαυτω οικιαν και τρυγων νοσσιαν εαυτη ου θησει τα νοσσια αυτης τα θυσιαστηρια σου κυριε των δυναμεων ο βασιλευς μου και ο θεος μου	4 they say, 'Come, let us annihilate them as a nation, the name of Israel shall be remembered no more!'
5 μακαριοι οι κατοικουντες εν τω οικω σου εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων αινεσουσιν σε διαψαλμα	5 They conspire with a single mind, they conclude an al iance against you,
6 μακαριος ανηρ ου εστιν η αντιλημψις αυτου παρα σου κυριε αναβασεις εν τη καρδια αυτου διεθετο	6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,
7 εν τη κοιλαδι του κλαυθμωνος εις τοπον ον εθετο και γαρ ευλογιας δωσει ο νομοθετων	7 Gebal, Ammon, Amalek, Philistia and the Tyrians;
8 πορευσονται εκ δυναμεως εις δυναμιν οφθησεται ο θεος των θεων εν σιων	8 even Assyria has joined them to reinforce the children of Lot.Pause
9 κυριε ο θεος των δυναμεων εισακουσον της προσευχης μου ενωτισαι ο θεος ιακωβ διαψαλμα	9 Treat them like Midian and Sisera, like Jabin at the river Kishon;
10 υπερασπιστα ημων ιδε ο θεος και επιβλεψον επι το προσωπον του χριστου σου	10 wiped out at En-Dor, they served to manure the ground.
11 οτι κρεισσων ημερα μια εν ταις αυλαις σου υπερ χιλιαδας εξελεξαμην παραρριπτεισθαι εν τω οικω του θεου μαλλον η οικειν εν σκηνωμασιν αμαρτωλων	11 Treat their leaders like Oreb and Zeeb, al their commanders like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 οτι ελεον και αληθειαν αγαπα κυριος ο θεος χαριν και δοξαν δωσει κυριος ου στερησει τα αγαθα τους πορευομενους εν ακακια	12 for they said, 'Let us take for ourselves God's settlements.'
13 κυριε των δυναμεων μακαριος ανθρωπος ο ελπιζων επι σε	13 My God, treat them like thistledown, like chaff at the mercy of the wind.
	14 As fire devours a forest, as a flame sets mountains ablaze,
	15 so drive them away with your tempest, by your whirlwind fill them with terror.
	16 Shame written al over their faces, let them seek your name, Yahweh!
	17 Dishonour and terror be always theirs, death also and destruction.
	18 Let them know that you alone bear the name of Yahweh, Most High over al the earth.
