Psalms 91

A psalm of a canticle on the sabbath day.

Psalmus cantici, in die sabbati.

ψαλμὸς ᾠδῆς εἰς τὴν ἡμέραν τοῦ σαββάτου

It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy name, O most High.

Bonum est confiteri Domino, et psallere nomini tuo, Altissime:

ἀγαθὸν τὸ ἐξομολογεῖσθαι τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ψάλλειν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ὕψιστε

To show forth thy mercy in the morning, and thy truth in the night:

ad annuntiandum mane misericordiam tuam, et veritatem tuam per noctem,

τοῦ ἀναγγέλλειν τὸ πρωὶ τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου κατὰ νύκτα

Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the psaltery: with a canticle upon the harp.

in decachordo, psalterio; cum cantico, in cithara.

ἐν δεκαχόρδῳ ψαλτηρίῳ μετ' ᾠδῆς ἐν κιθάρᾳ

For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice.

Quia delectasti me, Domine, in factura tua; et in operibus manuum tuarum exsultabo.

ὅτι εὔφρανάς με κύριε ἐν τῷ ποιήματί σου καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν σου ἀγαλλιάσομαι

O Lord, how great are thy works! thy thoughts are exceeding deep.

Quam magnificata sunt opera tua, Domine! nimis profundæ factæ sunt cogitationes tuæ.

ὡς ἐμεγαλύνθη τὰ ἔργα σου κύριε σφόδρα ἐβαθύνθησαν οἱ διαλογισμοί σου

The senseless man shall not know: nor will the fool understand these things.

Vir insipiens non cognoscet, et stultus non intelliget hæc.

ἀνὴρ ἄφρων οὐ γνώσεται καὶ ἀσύνετος οὐ συνήσει ταῦτα

When the wicked shall spring up as grass: and all the workers of iniquity shall appear: That they may perish for ever and ever:

Cum exorti fuerint peccatores sicut fœnum, et apparuerint omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, ut intereant in sæculum sæculi:

ἐν τῷ ἀνατεῖλαι τοὺς ἁμαρτωλοὺς ὡς χόρτον καὶ διέκυψαν πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν ὅπως ἂν ἐξολεθρευθῶσιν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος

But thou, O Lord, art most high for evermore.

tu autem Altissimus in æternum, Domine.

σὺ δὲ ὕψιστος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κύριε

For behold thy enemies, O lord, for behold thy enemies shall perish: and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

Quoniam ecce inimici tui, Domine, quoniam ecce inimici tui peribunt; et dispergentur omnes qui operantur iniquitatem.

ὅτι ἰδοὺ οἱ ἐχθροί σου ἀπολοῦνται καὶ διασκορπισθήσονται πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν

But my horn shall be exalted like that of the unicorn: and my old age in plentiful mercy.

Et exaltabitur sicut unicornis cornu meum, et senectus mea in misericordia uberi.

καὶ ὑψωθήσεται ὡς μονοκέρωτος τὸ κέρας μου καὶ τὸ γῆράς μου ἐν ἐλαίῳ πίονι

My eye also hath looked down upon my enemies: and my ear shall hear of the downfall of the malignant that rise up against me.

Et despexit oculus meus inimicos meos, et in insurgentibus in me malignantibus audiet auris mea.

καὶ ἐπεῖδεν ὁ ὀφθαλμός μου ἐν τοῖς ἐχθροῖς μου καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐπανιστανομένοις ἐπ' ἐμὲ πονηρευομένοις ἀκούσεται τὸ οὖς μου

The just shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow up like the cedar of Libanus.

Justus ut palma florebit; sicut cedrus Libani multiplicabitur.

δίκαιος ὡς φοῖνιξ ἀνθήσει ὡσεὶ κέδρος ἡ ἐν τῷ Λιβάνῳ πληθυνθήσεται

They that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of the house of our God.

Plantati in domo Domini, in atriis domus Dei nostri florebunt.

πεφυτευμένοι ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ κυρίου ἐν ταῖς αὐλαῖς τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐξανθήσουσιν

They shall still increase in a fruitful old age: and shall be well treated,

Adhuc multiplicabuntur in senecta uberi, et bene patientes erunt:

ἔτι πληθυνθήσονται ἐν γήρει πίονι καὶ εὐπαθοῦντες ἔσονται

That they may show, That the Lord our God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.

ut annuntient quoniam rectus Dominus Deus noster, et non est iniquitas in eo.

τοῦ ἀναγγεῖλαι ὅτι εὐθὴς κύριος ὁ θεός μου καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀδικία ἐν αὐτῷ
