ΨΑΛΜΟΙ - Salmi - Psalms 115

LXX	NEW JERUSALEM
1 αλληλουια επιστευσα διο ελαλησα εγω δε εταπεινωθην σφοδρα	1 Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name give the glory, for your faithful love and yourconstancy!
2 εγω ειπα εν τη εκστασει μου πας ανθρωπος ψευστης	2 Why should the nations ask, 'Where is their God?'
3 τι ανταποδωσω τω κυριω περι παντων ων ανταπεδωκεν μοι	3 Our God is in heaven, he creates whatever he chooses.
4 ποτηριον σωτηριου λημψομαι και το ονομα κυριου επικαλεσομαι	4 They have idols of silver and gold, made by human hands.
5 -	5 These have mouths but say nothing, have eyes but see nothing,
6 τιμιος εναντιον κυριου ο θανατος των οσιων αυτου	6 have ears but hear nothing, have noses but smel nothing.
7 ω κυριε εγω δουλος σος εγω δουλος σος και υιος της παιδισκης σου διερρηξας τους δεσμους μου	7 They have hands but cannot feel, have feet but cannot walk, no sound comes from their throats.
8 σοι θυσω θυσιαν αινεσεως	8 Their makers wil end up like them, and al who rely on them.
9 τας ευχας μου τω κυριω αποδωσω εναντιον παντος του λαου αυτου	9 House of Israel, rely on Yahweh; he is their help and their shield.
10 εν αυλαις οικου κυριου εν μεσω σου ιερουσαλημ	10 House of Aaron, rely on Yahweh; he is their help and their shield.
	11 You who fear Yahweh, rely on Yahweh; he is their help and their shield.
	12 Yahweh wil keep us in mind, he will bless, he wil bless the House of Israel, he wil bless the Houseof Aaron,
	13 he wil bless those who fear Yahweh, small and great alike.
	14 May Yahweh add to your numbers, yours and your children's too!
	15 May you be blessed by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
	16 Heaven belongs to Yahweh, but earth he has given to the children of Adam.
	17 The dead cannot praise Yahweh, those who sink into silence,
	18 but we, the living, shal bless Yahweh, henceforth and for ever.
