ΨΑΛΜΟΙ - Salmi - Psalms 90

LXX	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 αινος ωδης τω δαυιδ ο κατοικων εν βοηθεια του υψιστου εν σκεπη του θεου του ουρανου αυλισθησεται	1 A prayer of Moses the man of God. Lord, thou hast been our refuge from generation to generation.
2 ερει τω κυριω αντιλημπτωρ μου ει και καταφυγη μου ο θεος μου ελπιω επ' αυτον	2 Before the mountains were made, or the earth and the world was formed; from eternity and to eternity thou art God.
3 οτι αυτος ρυσεται με εκ παγιδος θηρευτων και απο λογου ταραχωδους	3 Turn not man away to be brought low: and thou hast said: Be converted, O ye sons of men.
4 εν τοις μεταφρενοις αυτου επισκιασει σοι και υπο τας πτερυγας αυτου ελπιεις οπλω κυκλωσει σε η αληθεια αυτου	4 For a thousand years in thy sight are as yesterday, which is past. And as a watch in the night,
5 ου φοβηθηση απο φοβου νυκτερινου απο βελους πετομενου ημερας	5 things that are counted nothing, shall their years be.
6 απο πραγματος διαπορευομενου εν σκοτει απο συμπτωματος και δαιμονιου μεσημβρινου	6 In the morning man shall grow up like grass; in the morning he shall flourish and pass away: in the evening he shall fall, grow dry, and wither.
7 πεσειται εκ του κλιτους σου χιλιας και μυριας εκ δεξιων σου προς σε δε ουκ εγγιει	7 For in thy wrath we have fainted away: and are troubled in thy indignation.
8 πλην τοις οφθαλμοις σου κατανοησεις και ανταποδοσιν αμαρτωλων οψη	8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thy eyes: our life in the light of thy countenance.
9 οτι συ κυριε η ελπις μου τον υψιστον εθου καταφυγην σου	9 For all our days are spent; and in thy wrath we have fainted away. Our years shall be considered spider:
10 ου προσελευσεται προς σε κακα και μαστιξ ουκ εγγιει τω σκηνωματι σου	10 the days of our years in them are threescore and ten years. But if in the strong they be fourscore years: and what is more of them is labour and sorrow. For mildness is come upon us: and we shall be corrected.
11 οτι τοις αγγελοις αυτου εντελειται περι σου του διαφυλαξαι σε εν πασαις ταις οδοις σου	11 Who knoweth the power of thy anger, and for thy fear
12 επι χειρων αρουσιν σε μηποτε προσκοψης προς λιθον τον ποδα σου	12 can number thy wrath? So make thy right hand known: and men learned in heart, in wisdom.
13 επ' ασπιδα και βασιλισκον επιβηση και καταπατησεις λεοντα και δρακοντα	13 Return, O Lord, how long? and be entreated in favour of thy servants.
14 οτι επ' εμε ηλπισεν και ρυσομαι αυτον σκεπασω αυτον οτι εγνω το ονομα μου	14 We are filled in the morning with thy mercy: and we have rejoiced, and are delighted all our days.
15 επικαλεσεται με και εισακουσομαι αυτου μετ' αυτου ειμι εν θλιψει και εξελουμαι και δοξασω αυτον	15 We have rejoiced for the days in which thou hast humbled us: for the years in which we have seen evils.
16 μακροτητα ημερων εμπλησω αυτον και δειξω αυτω το σωτηριον μου	16 Look upon thy servants and upon their works: and direct their children.
	17 And let the brightness of the Lord our God be upon us: and direct thou the works of our hands over us; yea, the work of our hands do thou direct.
