< Psalms 104 >

1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honor and majesty.
τῷ Δαυιδ εὐλόγει ἡ ψυχή μου τὸν κύριον κύριε ὁ θεός μου ἐμεγαλύνθης σφόδρα ἐξομολόγησιν καὶ εὐπρέπειαν ἐνεδύσω
2 Who coverest [thyself] with light as [with] a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
ἀναβαλλόμενος φῶς ὡς ἱμάτιον ἐκτείνων τὸν οὐρανὸν ὡσεὶ δέρριν
3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
ὁ στεγάζων ἐν ὕδασιν τὰ ὑπερῷα αὐτοῦ ὁ τιθεὶς νέφη τὴν ἐπίβασιν αὐτοῦ ὁ περιπατῶν ἐπὶ πτερύγων ἀνέμων
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
ὁ ποιῶν τοὺς ἀγγέλους αὐτοῦ πνεύματα καὶ τοὺς λειτουργοὺς αὐτοῦ πῦρ φλέγον
5 [Who] laid the foundations of the earth, [that] it should not be removed for ever.
ἐθεμελίωσεν τὴν γῆν ἐπὶ τὴν ἀσφάλειαν αὐτῆς οὐ κλιθήσεται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος
6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as [with] a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.
ἄβυσσος ὡς ἱμάτιον τὸ περιβόλαιον αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῶν ὀρέων στήσονται ὕδατα
7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.
ἀπὸ ἐπιτιμήσεώς σου φεύξονται ἀπὸ φωνῆς βροντῆς σου δειλιάσουσιν
8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys to the place which thou hast founded for them.
ἀναβαίνουσιν ὄρη καὶ καταβαίνουσιν πεδία εἰς τόπον ὃν ἐθεμελίωσας αὐτοῖς
9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
ὅριον ἔθου ὃ οὐ παρελεύσονται οὐδὲ ἐπιστρέψουσιν καλύψαι τὴν γῆν
10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys, [which] run among the hills.
ὁ ἐξαποστέλλων πηγὰς ἐν φάραγξιν ἀνὰ μέσον τῶν ὀρέων διελεύσονται ὕδατα
11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst.
ποτιοῦσιν πάντα τὰ θηρία τοῦ ἀγροῦ προσδέξονται ὄναγροι εἰς δίψαν αὐτῶν
12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, [which] sing among the branches.
ἐπ’ αὐτὰ τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ κατασκηνώσει ἐκ μέσου τῶν πετρῶν δώσουσιν φωνήν
13 He watereth the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
ποτίζων ὄρη ἐκ τῶν ὑπερῴων αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ καρποῦ τῶν ἔργων σου χορτασθήσεται ἡ γῆ
14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
ἐξανατέλλων χόρτον τοῖς κτήνεσιν καὶ χλόην τῇ δουλείᾳ τῶν ἀνθρώπων τοῦ ἐξαγαγεῖν ἄρτον ἐκ τῆς γῆς
15 And wine [that] maketh glad the heart of man, [and] oil to make [his] face to shine, and bread [which] strengtheneth man's heart.
καὶ οἶνος εὐφραίνει καρδίαν ἀνθρώπου τοῦ ἱλαρῦναι πρόσωπον ἐν ἐλαίῳ καὶ ἄρτος καρδίαν ἀνθρώπου στηρίζει
16 The trees of the LORD are full [of sap]; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
χορτασθήσεται τὰ ξύλα τοῦ πεδίου αἱ κέδροι τοῦ Λιβάνου ἃς ἐφύτευσεν
17 Where the birds make their nests: [as for] the stork, the fir-trees [are] her house.
ἐκεῖ στρουθία ἐννοσσεύσουσιν τοῦ ἐρωδιοῦ ἡ οἰκία ἡγεῖται αὐτῶν
18 The high hills [are] a refuge for the wild goats; [and] the rocks for the conies.
ὄρη τὰ ὑψηλὰ ταῖς ἐλάφοις πέτρα καταφυγὴ τοῖς χοιρογρυλλίοις
19 He appointeth the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.
ἐποίησεν σελήνην εἰς καιρούς ὁ ἥλιος ἔγνω τὴν δύσιν αὐτοῦ
20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night: in which all the beasts of the forest do creep [forth].
ἔθου σκότος καὶ ἐγένετο νύξ ἐν αὐτῇ διελεύσονται πάντα τὰ θηρία τοῦ δρυμοῦ
21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.
σκύμνοι ὠρυόμενοι ἁρπάσαι καὶ ζητῆσαι παρὰ τοῦ θεοῦ βρῶσιν αὐτοῖς
22 The sun ariseth, they collect, and lay themselves down in their dens.
ἀνέτειλεν ὁ ἥλιος καὶ συνήχθησαν καὶ ἐν ταῖς μάνδραις αὐτῶν κοιτασθήσονται
23 Man goeth forth to his work and to his labor until the evening.
ἐξελεύσεται ἄνθρωπος ἐπὶ τὸ ἔργον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τὴν ἐργασίαν αὐτοῦ ἕως ἑσπέρας
24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.
ὡς ἐμεγαλύνθη τὰ ἔργα σου κύριε πάντα ἐν σοφίᾳ ἐποίησας ἐπληρώθη ἡ γῆ τῆς κτήσεώς σου
25 [So is] this great and wide sea, in which [are] creeping animals innumerable, both small and great beasts.
αὕτη ἡ θάλασσα ἡ μεγάλη καὶ εὐρύχωρος ἐκεῖ ἑρπετά ὧν οὐκ ἔστιν ἀριθμός ζῷα μικρὰ μετὰ μεγάλων
26 There go the ships: [there is] that leviathan, [which] thou hast made to play therein.
ἐκεῖ πλοῖα διαπορεύονται δράκων οὗτος ὃν ἔπλασας ἐμπαίζειν αὐτῷ
27 These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give [them] their food in due season.
πάντα πρὸς σὲ προσδοκῶσιν δοῦναι τὴν τροφὴν αὐτοῖς εὔκαιρον
28 [That which] thou givest them, they gather: thou openest thy hand, they are filled with good.
δόντος σου αὐτοῖς συλλέξουσιν ἀνοίξαντος δέ σου τὴν χεῖρα τὰ σύμπαντα πλησθήσονται χρηστότητος
29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.
ἀποστρέψαντος δέ σου τὸ πρόσωπον ταραχθήσονται ἀντανελεῖς τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτῶν καὶ ἐκλείψουσιν καὶ εἰς τὸν χοῦν αὐτῶν ἐπιστρέψουσιν
30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of the earth.
ἐξαποστελεῖς τὸ πνεῦμά σου καὶ κτισθήσονται καὶ ἀνακαινιεῖς τὸ πρόσωπον τῆς γῆς
31 The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.
ἤτω ἡ δόξα κυρίου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα εὐφρανθήσεται κύριος ἐπὶ τοῖς ἔργοις αὐτοῦ
32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.
ὁ ἐπιβλέπων ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν καὶ ποιῶν αὐτὴν τρέμειν ὁ ἁπτόμενος τῶν ὀρέων καὶ καπνίζονται
33 I will sing to the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
ᾄσω τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ μου ψαλῶ τῷ θεῷ μου ἕως ὑπάρχω
34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.
ἡδυνθείη αὐτῷ ἡ διαλογή μου ἐγὼ δὲ εὐφρανθήσομαι ἐπὶ τῷ κυρίῳ
35 Let sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.
ἐκλίποισαν ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἄνομοι ὥστε μὴ ὑπάρχειν αὐτούς εὐλόγει ἡ ψυχή μου τὸν κύριον
