Psalms 146

1Alleluia.

2The Lord buildeth up Jerusalem: he will gather together the dispersed of Israel.

3Who healeth the broken of heart, and bindeth up their bruises.

4Who telleth the number of the stars: and calleth them all by their names.

5Great is our Lord, and great is his power: and of his wisdom there is no number.

6The Lord lifteth up the meek, and bringeth the wicked down even to the ground.

7Sing ye to the Lord with praise: sing to our God upon the harp.

8Who covereth the heaven with clouds, and prepareth rain for the earth. Who maketh grass to grow on the mountains, and herbs for the service of men.

9Who giveth to beasts their food: and to the young ravens that call upon him.

10He shall not delight in the strength of the horse: nor take pleasure in the legs of a man.

11The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him: and in them that hope in his mercy.

1Laudate Dominum, quoniam bonus est psalmus; Deo nostro sit jucunda, decoraque laudatio.

2Ædificans Jerusalem Dominus, dispersiones Israëlis congregabit:

3qui sanat contritos corde, et alligat contritiones eorum;

4qui numerat multitudinem stellarum, et omnibus eis nomina vocat.

5Magnus Dominus noster, et magna virtus ejus, et sapientiæ ejus non est numerus.

6Suscipiens mansuetos Dominus; humilians autem peccatores usque ad terram.

7Præcinite Domino in confessione; psallite Deo nostro in cithara.

8Qui operit cælum nubibus, et parat terræ pluviam; qui producit in montibus fœnum, et herbam servituti hominum;

9qui dat jumentis escam ipsorum, et pullis corvorum invocantibus eum.

10Non in fortitudine equi voluntatem habebit, nec in tibiis viri beneplacitum erit ei.

11Beneplacitum est Domino super timentes eum, et in eis qui sperant super misericordia ejus.

12Lauda, Jerusalem, Dominum; lauda Deum tuum, Sion.

13Quoniam confortavit seras portarum tuarum; benedixit filiis tuis in te.

14Qui posuit fines tuos pacem, et adipe frumenti satiat te.

15Qui emittit eloquium suum terræ : velociter currit sermo ejus.

16Qui dat nivem sicut lanam; nebulam sicut cinerem spargit.

17Mittit crystallum suam sicut buccellas : ante faciem frigoris ejus quis sustinebit?

18Emittet verbum suum, et liquefaciet ea; flabit spiritus ejus, et fluent aquæ.

19Qui annuntiat verbum suum Jacob, justitias et judicia sua Israël.

20Non fecit taliter omni nationi, et judicia sua non manifestavit eis. Alleluja.

1αλληλουια Αγγαιου καὶ Ζαχαριου αἰνεῖτε τὸν κύριον ὅτι ἀγαθὸν ψαλμός τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν ἡδυνθείη αἴνεσις

2οἰκοδομῶν Ιερουσαλημ ὁ κύριος καὶ τὰς διασπορὰς τοῦ Ισραηλ ἐπισυνάξει

3ὁ ἰώμενος τοὺς συντετριμμένους τὴν καρδίαν καὶ δεσμεύων τὰ συντρίμματα αὐτῶν

4ὁ ἀριθμῶν πλήθη ἄστρων καὶ πᾶσιν αὐτοῖς ὀνόματα καλῶν

5μέγας ὁ κύριος ἡμῶν καὶ μεγάλη ἡ ἰσχὺς αὐτοῦ καὶ τῆς συνέσεως αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀριθμός

6ἀναλαμβάνων πραεῖς ὁ κύριος ταπεινῶν δὲ ἁμαρτωλοὺς ἕως τῆς γῆς

7ἐξάρξατε τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν ἐξομολογήσει ψάλατε τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν ἐν κιθάρᾳ

8τῷ περιβάλλοντι τὸν οὐρανὸν ἐν νεφέλαις τῷ ἑτοιμάζοντι τῇ γῇ ὑετόν τῷ ἐξανατέλλοντι ἐν ὄρεσι χόρτον καὶ χλόην τῇ δουλείᾳ τῶν ἀνθρώπων

9διδόντι τοῖς κτήνεσι τροφὴν αὐτῶν καὶ τοῖς νεοσσοῖς τῶν κοράκων τοῖς ἐπικαλουμένοις αὐτόν

10οὐκ ἐν τῇ δυναστείᾳ τοῦ ἵππου θελήσει οὐδὲ ἐν ταῖς κνήμαις τοῦ ἀνδρὸς εὐδοκεῖ

11εὐδοκεῖ κύριος ἐν τοῖς φοβουμένοις αὐτὸν καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐλπίζουσιν ἐπὶ τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ

12Αγγαιου καὶ Ζαχαριου ἐπαίνει Ιερουσαλημ τὸν κύριον αἴνει τὸν θεόν σου Σιων

13ὅτι ἐνίσχυσεν τοὺς μοχλοὺς τῶν πυλῶν σου εὐλόγησεν τοὺς υἱούς σου ἐν σοί

14ὁ τιθεὶς τὰ ὅριά σου εἰρήνην καὶ στέαρ πυροῦ ἐμπιπλῶν σε

15ὁ ἀποστέλλων τὸ λόγιον αὐτοῦ τῇ γῇ ἕως τάχους δραμεῖται ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ

16τοῦ διδόντος χιόνα ὡσεὶ ἔριον ὁμίχλην ὡσεὶ σποδὸν πάσσοντος

17βάλλοντος κρύσταλλον αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ ψωμούς κατὰ πρόσωπον ψύχους αὐτοῦ τίς ὑποστήσεται

18ἀποστελεῖ τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ καὶ τήξει αὐτά πνεύσει τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ καὶ ῥυήσεται ὕδατα

19ἀπαγγέλλων τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ τῷ Ιακωβ δικαιώματα καὶ κρίματα αὐτοῦ τῷ Ισραηλ

20οὐκ ἐποίησεν οὕτως παντὶ ἔθνει καὶ τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐδήλωσεν αὐτοῖς
