< Psalms 106 >

1 Praise the LORD! Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
Αλληλούϊα. Αινείτε τον Κύριον, διότι είναι αγαθός· διότι το έλεος αυτού μένει εις τον αιώνα.
2 Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD, or fully declare all his praise?
Τις δύναται να κηρύξη τα κραταιά έργα του Κυρίου, να κάμη ακουστάς πάσας τας αινέσεις αυτού;
3 Blessed are those who keep justice. Blessed is one who does what is right at all times.
Μακάριοι οι φυλάττοντες κρίσιν, οι πράττοντες δικαιοσύνην εν παντί καιρώ.
4 Remember me, LORD, with the favour that you show to your people. Visit me with your salvation,
Μνήσθητί μου, Κύριε, εν τη ευμενεία τη προς τον λαόν σου· επισκέφθητί με εν τη σωτηρία σου·
5 that I may see the prosperity of your chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation, that I may glory with your inheritance.
διά να βλέπω το καλόν των εκλεκτών σου, διά να ευφραίνωμαι εν τη ευφροσύνη του έθνους σου, διά να καυχώμαι μετά της κληρονομίας σου.
6 We have sinned with our fathers. We have committed iniquity. We have done wickedly.
Ημαρτήσαμεν μετά των πατέρων ημών· ηνομήσαμεν, ησεβήσαμεν.
7 Our fathers didn’t understand your wonders in Egypt. They didn’t remember the multitude of your loving kindnesses, but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
Οι πατέρες ημών εν Αιγύπτω δεν ενόησαν τα θαυμάσιά σου· δεν ενεθυμήθησαν το πλήθος του ελέους σου, και σε παρώργισαν εν τη θαλάσση, εν τη Ερυθρά θαλάσση.
8 Nevertheless he saved them for his name’s sake, that he might make his mighty power known.
Και όμως έσωσεν αυτούς διά το όνομα αυτού, διά να κάμη γνωστά τα κραταιά έργα αυτού.
9 He rebuked the Red Sea also, and it was dried up; so he led them through the depths, as through a desert.
Και επετίμησε την Ερυθράν θάλασσαν, και εξηράνθη· και διεβίβασεν αυτούς διά των αβύσσων ως δι' ερήμου·
10 He saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.
και έσωσεν αυτούς εκ της χειρός του μισούντος αυτούς, και ελύτρωσεν αυτούς εκ της χειρός του εχθρού.
11 The waters covered their adversaries. There was not one of them left.
Και τα ύδατα κατεκάλυψαν τους εχθρούς αυτών· δεν απελείφθη ουδέ εις εξ αυτών.
12 Then they believed his words. They sang his praise.
Τότε επίστευσαν εις τους λόγους αυτού· έψαλαν την αίνεσιν αυτού.
13 They soon forgot his works. They didn’t wait for his counsel,
Πλην ταχέως ελησμόνησαν τα έργα αυτού· δεν περιέμειναν την βουλήν αυτού·
14 but gave in to craving in the desert, and tested God in the wasteland.
Αλλ' επεθύμησαν επιθυμίαν εν τη ερήμω, και επείρασαν τον Θεόν εν τη ανύδρω.
15 He gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul.
Και έδωκεν εις αυτούς την αίτησιν αυτών· απέστειλεν όμως εις αυτούς νόσον θανατηφόρον.
16 They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron, the LORD’s saint.
Εφθόνησαν έτι τον Μωϋσήν εν τω στρατοπέδω και τον Ααρών τον άγιον του Κυρίου.
17 The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
Η γη ήνοιξε και κατέπιε τον Δαθάν, και εσκέπασε την συναγωγήν του Αβειρών·
18 A fire was kindled in their company. The flame burnt up the wicked.
και πυρ εξήφθη εν τη συναγωγή αυτών· η φλόξ κατέκαυσε τους ασεβείς.
19 They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped a molten image.
Κατεσκεύασαν μόσχον εν Χωρήβ, και προσεκύνησαν το χωνευτόν·
20 Thus they exchanged their glory for an image of a bull that eats grass.
και μετήλλαξαν την δόξαν αυτών εις ομοίωμα βοός τρώγοντος χόρτον.
21 They forgot God, their Saviour, who had done great things in Egypt,
Ελησμόνησαν τον Θεόν τον σωτήρα αυτών τον ποιήσαντα μεγαλεία εν Αιγύπτω,
22 wondrous works in the land of Ham, and awesome things by the Red Sea.
θαυμάσια εν γη Χαμ, φοβερά εν τη Ερυθρά θαλάσση.
23 Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had Moses, his chosen, not stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, so that he wouldn’t destroy them.
Και είπε να εξολοθρεύση αυτούς, αν ο Μωϋσής ο εκλεκτός αυτού δεν ίστατο εν τη θραύσει ενώπιον αυτού, διά να αποστρέψη την οργήν αυτού, ώστε να μη αφανίση αυτούς.
24 Yes, they despised the pleasant land. They didn’t believe his word,
Κατεφρόνησαν έτι την γην την επιθυμητήν· δεν επίστευσαν εις τον λόγον αυτού·
25 but murmured in their tents, and didn’t listen to the LORD’s voice.
και εγόγγυσαν εν ταις σκηναίς αυτών· δεν εισήκουσαν της φωνής του Κυρίου.
26 Therefore he swore to them that he would overthrow them in the wilderness,
Διά τούτο εσήκωσε την χείρα αυτού κατ' αυτών, διά να καταστρέψη αυτούς εν τη ερήμω.
27 that he would overthrow their offspring amongst the nations, and scatter them in the lands.
και να στρέψη το σπέρμα αυτών μεταξύ των εθνών και να διασκορπίση αυτούς εις τους τόπους.
28 They joined themselves also to Baal Peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.
Και προσεκολλήθησαν εις τον Βέελ-φεγώρ, και έφαγον θυσίας νεκρών·
29 Thus they provoked him to anger with their deeds. The plague broke in on them.
και παρώξυναν αυτόν εν τοις έργοις αυτών, ώστε εφώρμησεν επ' αυτούς η πληγή.
30 Then Phinehas stood up and executed judgement, so the plague was stopped.
Αλλά σταθείς ο Φινεές έκαμε κρίσιν· και η πληγή έπαυσε·
31 That was credited to him for righteousness, for all generations to come.
και ελογίσθη εις αυτόν διά δικαιοσύνην, εις γενεάν και γενεάν έως αιώνος.
32 They angered him also at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled for their sakes;
Και παρώξυναν αυτόν εν τοις ύδασι της αντιλογίας, και έπαθε κακώς ο Μωϋσής δι' αυτούς·
33 because they were rebellious against his spirit, he spoke rashly with his lips.
διότι παρώργισαν το πνεύμα αυτού, ώστε ελάλησεν αστοχάστως διά των χειλέων αυτού.
34 They didn’t destroy the peoples, as the LORD commanded them,
Δεν εξωλόθρευσαν τα έθνη τα οποία ο Κύριος προσέταξεν εις αυτούς·
35 but mixed themselves with the nations, and learnt their works.
αλλ' εσμίχθησαν μετά των εθνών και έμαθον τα έργα αυτών·
36 They served their idols, which became a snare to them.
και ελάτρευσαν τα γλυπτά αυτών, τα οποία έγειναν παγίς εις αυτούς·
37 Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons.
και εθυσίασαν τους υιούς αυτών και τας θυγατέρας αυτών εις τα δαιμόνια·
38 They shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. The land was polluted with blood.
Και έχυσαν αίμα αθώον, το αίμα των υιών αυτών και των θυγατέρων αυτών τους οποίους εθυσίασαν εις τα γλυπτά της Χαναάν· και εμιάνθη η γη εξ αιμάτων.
39 Thus they were defiled with their works, and prostituted themselves in their deeds.
Και εμολύνθησαν με τα έργα αυτών, και επόρνευσαν με τας πράξεις αυτών.
40 Therefore the LORD burnt with anger against his people. He abhorred his inheritance.
Διά τούτο η οργή του Κυρίου εξήφθη κατά του λαού αυτού, και εβδελύχθη την κληρονομίαν αυτού,
41 He gave them into the hand of the nations. Those who hated them ruled over them.
Και παρέδωκεν αυτούς εις τας χείρας των εθνών· και εκυρίευσαν αυτούς οι μισούντες αυτούς.
42 Their enemies also oppressed them. They were brought into subjection under their hand.
Και έθλιψαν αυτούς οι εχθροί αυτών, και εταπεινώθησαν υπό τας χείρας αυτών.
43 He rescued them many times, but they were rebellious in their counsel, and were brought low in their iniquity.
Πολλάκις ελύτρωσεν αυτούς, αλλ' αυτοί παρώργισαν αυτόν με τας βουλάς αυτών· διό εταπεινώθησαν διά την ανομίαν αυτών.
44 Nevertheless he regarded their distress, when he heard their cry.
Πλην επέβλεψεν επί την θλίψιν αυτών, ότε ήκουσε την κραυγήν αυτών·
45 He remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
και ενεθυμήθη την προς αυτούς διαθήκην αυτού και μετεμελήθη κατά το πλήθος του ελέους αυτού.
46 He made them also to be pitied by all those who carried them captive.
Και έκαμεν αυτούς να εύρωσιν έλεος ενώπιον πάντων των αιχμαλωτισάντων αυτούς.
47 Save us, LORD, our God, gather us from amongst the nations, to give thanks to your holy name, to triumph in your praise!
Σώσον ημάς, Κύριε ο Θεός ημών, και συνάγαγε ημάς από των εθνών, διά να δοξολογώμεν το όνομά σου το άγιον και να καυχώμεθα εις την αίνεσίν σου.
48 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting even to everlasting! Let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise the LORD!
Ευλογητός Κύριος ο Θεός του Ισραήλ, από του αιώνος και έως του αιώνος· και ας λέγη πας ο λαός, Αμήν. Αλληλούϊα.
