ΨΑΛΜΟΙ - Salmi - Psalms 91

LXX	NEW JERUSALEM
1 ψαλμος ωδης εις την ημεραν του σαββατου	1 You who live in the secret place of Elyon, spend your nights in the shelter of Shaddai,
2 αγαθον το εξομολογεισθαι τω κυριω και ψαλλειν τω ονοματι σου υψιστε	2 saying to Yahweh, 'My refuge, my fortress, my God in whom I trust!'
3 του αναγγελλειν το πρωι το ελεος σου και την αληθειαν σου κατα νυκτα	3 He rescues you from the snare of the fowler set on destruction;
4 εν δεκαχορδω ψαλτηριω μετ' ωδης εν κιθαρα	4 he covers you with his pinions, you find shelter under his wings. His constancy is shield andprotection.
5 οτι ευφρανας με κυριε εν τω ποιηματι σου και εν τοις εργοις των χειρων σου αγαλλιασομαι	5 You need not fear the terrors of night, the arrow that flies in the daytime,
6 ως εμεγαλυνθη τα εργα σου κυριε σφοδρα εβαθυνθησαν οι διαλογισμοι σου	6 the plague that stalks in the darkness, the scourge that wreaks havoc at high noon.
7 ανηρ αφρων ου γνωσεται και ασυνετος ου συνησει ταυτα	7 Though a thousand fal at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, you yourself wil remainunscathed.
8 εν τω ανατειλαι τους αμαρτωλους ως χορτον και διεκυψαν παντες οι εργαζομενοι την ανομιαν οπως αν εξολεθρευθωσιν εις τον αιωνα του αιωνος	8 You have only to keep your eyes open to see how the wicked are repaid,
9 συ δε υψιστος εις τον αιωνα κυριε	9 you who say, 'Yahweh my refuge!' and make Elyon your fortress.
10 οτι ιδου οι εχθροι σου απολουνται και διασκορπισθησονται παντες οι εργαζομενοι την ανομιαν	10 No disaster can overtake you, no plague come near your tent;
11 και υψωθησεται ως μονοκερωτος το κερας μου και το γηρας μου εν ελαιω πιονι	11 he has given his angels orders about you to guard you wherever you go.
12 και επειδεν ο οφθαλμος μου εν τοις εχθροις μου και εν τοις επανιστανομενοις επ' εμε πονηρευομενοις ακουσεται το ους μου	12 They will carry you in their arms in case you trip over a stone.
13 δικαιος ως φοινιξ ανθησει ωσει κεδρος η εν τω λιβανω πληθυνθησεται	13 You wil walk upon wild beast and adder, you wil trample young lions and snakes.
14 πεφυτευμενοι εν τω οικω κυριου εν ταις αυλαις του θεου ημων εξανθησουσιν	14 'Since he clings to me I rescue him, I raise him high, since he acknowledges my name.
15 ετι πληθυνθησονται εν γηρει πιονι και ευπαθουντες εσονται	15 He cal s to me and I answer him: in distress I am at his side, I rescue him and bring him honour.
16 του αναγγειλαι οτι ευθης κυριος ο θεος μου και ουκ εστιν αδικια εν αυτω	16 I shal satisfy him with long life, and grant him to see my salvation.'
