לְדָוִד בָּרוּךְ יְהוָה צוּרִי הַמְלַמֵּד יָדַי לַקְרָב אֶצְבְּעוֹתַי לַמִּלְחָמָה
A Psalm of David. Blessed be HaShem my Rock, who traineth my hands for war, and my fingers for battle;
Τῷ Δαυὶδ πρὸς τὸν Γολιάδ. Εὐλογήτος Κύριος ὁ Θεός μου, ὁ διδάσκων τὰς χεῖράς μου εἰς παράταξιν, τοὺς δακτύλους μου εἰς πόλεμον·
[A Psalm] of David concerning Goliath. Blessed [be] the Lord my God, Who instructs my hands for battle, [And] my fingers for war.

חַסְדִּי וּמְצוּדָתִי מִשְׂגַּבִּי וּמְפַלְטִי לִי מָגִנִּי וּבוֹ חָסִיתִי הָרוֹדֵד עַמִּי תַחְתָּי
My lovingkindness, and my fortress, my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and He in whom I take refuge; who subdueth my people under me.
Ἔλεός μου καὶ καταφυγή μου, ἀντιλήπτωρ μου καὶ ῥύστης μου, ὑπερασπιστής μου, καὶ ἐπʼ αὐτῷ ἤλπισα, ὁ ὑποτάσσων τὸν λαόν μου ὑπʼ ἐμέ.
My mercy, and my refuge; My helper, and my deliverer; My protector, in whom I have trusted; Who subdues my people under me.

יְהוָה מָה־אָדָם וַתֵּדָעֵהוּ בֶּן־אֱנוֹשׁ וַתְּחַשְּׁבֵהוּ
HaShem, what is man, that Thou takest knowledge of him? or the son of man, that Thou makest account of him?
Κύριε, τί ἐστιν ἄνθρωπος, ὅτι ἐγνώσθης αὐτῷ; ἢ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου, ὅτι λογίζῃ αὐτόν;
Lord, what is man, that thou art made known to him? Or the son of man, that thou takest account of him?
4
אָדָם לַהֶבֶל דָּמָה יָמָיו כְּצֵל עוֹבֵר
Man is like unto a breath; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
Ἄνθρωπος ματαιότητι ὡμοιώθη, αἱ ἡμέραι αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ σκιὰ παράγουσι.
Man is like to vanity: His days pass as a shadow.
5
יְהוָה הַט־שָׁמֶיךָ וְתֵרֵד גַּע בֶּהָרִים וְיֶעֱשָׁנוּ
O HaShem, bow Thy heavens, and come down; touch the mountains, that they may smoke.
Κύριε, κλῖνον οὐρανούς σου καὶ κατάβηθι, ἅψαι τῶν ὀρέων καὶ καπνισθήσονται.
O Lord, bow thy heavens, and come down: Touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6
בְּרוֹק בָּרָק וּתְפִיצֵם שְׁלַח חִצֶּיךָ וּתְהֻמֵּם
Cast forth lightning, and scatter them; send out Thine arrows, and discomfit them.
Ἄστραψον ἀστραπὴν καὶ σκορπιεῖς αὐτοὺς, ἐξαπόστειλον τὰ βέλη σου καὶ συνταράξεις αὐτούς.
Send lightning, and thou shalt scatter them: Send forth thine arrows, and thou shalt discomfit them.
7
שְׁלַח יָדֶיךָ מִמָּרוֹם פְּצֵנִי וְהַצִּילֵנִי מִמַּיִם רַבִּים מִיַּד בְּנֵי נֵכָר
Stretch forth Thy hands from on high; rescue me, and deliver me out of many waters, out of the hand of strangers;
Ἐξαπόστειλον τὴν χεῖρά σου ἐξ ὕψους, ἐξελοῦ με καὶ ῥῦσαί με ἐξ ὑδάτων πολλῶν, ἐκ χειρὸς υἱῶν ἀλλοτρίων·
Send forth thy hand from on high; Rescue me, and deliver me out of great waters, Out of the hand of strange children;
8
אֲשֶׁר פִּיהֶם דִּבֶּר־שָׁוְא וִימִינָם יְמִין שָׁקֶר
Whose mouth speaketh falsehood, and their right hand is a right hand of lying.
ὧν τὸ στόμα ἐλάλησε ματαιότητα, καὶ ἡ δεξιὰ αὐτῶν δεξιὰ ἀδικίας.
Whose mouth has spoken vanity, And their right hand is a right hand of iniquity.
9
אֱלֹהִים שִׁיר חָדָשׁ אָשִׁירָה לָּךְ בְּנֵבֶל עָשׂוֹר אֲזַמְּרָה־לָּךְ
O G-d, I will sing a new song unto Thee, upon a psaltery of ten strings will I sing praises unto Thee;
Ὁ Θεὸς, ᾠδὴν καινὴν ᾄσομαί σοι, ἐν ψαλτηρίῳ δεκαχόρδῳ ψαλῶ σοι·
O God, I will sing a new song to thee: I will play to thee on a psaltery of ten strings.
10
הַנּוֹתֵן תְּשׁוּעָה לַמְּלָכִים הַפּוֹצֶה אֶת־דָּוִד עַבְדּוֹ מֵחֶרֶב רָעָה
Who givest salvation unto kings, who rescuest David Thy servant from the hurtful sword.
Τῷ διδόντι τὴν σωτηρίαν τοῖς βασιλεῦσι, τῷ λυτρουμένῳ Δαυὶδ τὸν δοῦλον αὐτοῦ ἐκ ῥομφαίας πονηρᾶς.
[Even] to him who gives salvation to kings: Who redeems his servant David from the hurtful sword.
11
פְּצֵנִי וְהַצִּילֵנִי מִיַּד בְּנֵי־נֵכָר אֲשֶׁר פִּיהֶם דִּבֶּר־שָׁוְא וִימִינָם יְמִין שָׁקֶר
Rescue me, and deliver me out of the hand of strangers, whose mouth speaketh falsehood, and their right hand is a right hand of lying.
Ῥῦσαί με καὶ ἐξελοῦ με ἐκ χειρὸς υἱῶν ἀλλοτρίων, ὧν τὸ στόμα ἐλάλησε ματαιότητα, καὶ ἡ δεξιὰ αὐτῶν δεξιὰ ἀδικίας·
Deliver me, and rescue me from the hand of strange children, Whose mouth has spoken vanity, And their right hand is a right hand of iniquity;
12
אֲשֶׁר בָּנֵינוּ כִּנְטִעִים מְגֻדָּלִים בִּנְעוּרֵיהֶם בְּנוֹתֵינוּ כְזָוִיֹּת מְחֻטָּבוֹת תַּבְנִית הֵיכָל
We whose sons are as plants grown up in their youth; whose daughters are as corner-pillars carved after the fashion of a palace;
ὧν οἱ υἱοὶ ὡς νεόφυτα ἱδρυμένα ἐν τῇ νεότητι αὐτῶν· αἱ θυγατέρες αὐτῶν κεκαλλωπισμέναι, περικεκοσμημέναι ὡς ὁμοίωμα ναοῦ.
Whose children are as plants, Strengthened in their youth: Their daughters are beautiful, sumptuously Adorned after the similitude of a temple.
13
מְזָוֵינוּ מְלֵאִים מְפִיקִים מִזַּן אֶל־זַן צֹאונֵנוּ מַאֲלִיפוֹת מְרֻבָּבוֹת בְּחוּצוֹתֵינוּ
Whose garners are full, affording all manner of store; whose sheep increase by thousands and ten thousands in our fields;
Τὰ ταμεῖα αὐτῶν πλήρη, ἐξερευγόμενα ἐκ τούτου εἰς τοῦτο· τὰ πρόβατα αὐτῶν πολυτόκα, πληθύνοντα ἐν ταῖς ἐξόδοις αὐτῶν·
Their garners are full, And bursting with one kind of store after another; Their sheep are prolific, Multiplying in their streets.
14
אַלּוּפֵינוּ מְסֻבָּלִים אֵין־פֶּרֶץ וְאֵין יוֹצֵאת וְאֵין צְוָחָה בִּרְחֹבֹתֵינוּ
Whose oxen are well laden; with no breach, and no going forth, and no outcry in our broad places;
Οἱ βόες αὐτῶν παχεῖς· οὐκ ἔστι κατάπτωμα φραγμοῦ, οὐδὲ διέξοδος, οὐδὲ κραυγὴ ἐν ταῖς ἐπαύλεσιν αὐτῶν.
Their oxen are fat: There is no falling down of a hedge, nor going out, Nor cry in their folds.
15
אַשְׁרֵי הָעָם שֶׁכָּכָה לּוֹ אַשְׁרֵי הָעָם שֶׁיֲהוָה אֱלֹהָיו
Happy is the people that is in such a case. Yea, happy is the people whose G-d is HaShem.
Ἐμακάρισαν τὸν λαὸν ᾧ ταῦτά ἐστι· μακάριος ὁ λαὸς οὗ Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς αὐτοῦ.
Men bless the people to whom this lot belongs, [But] blessed is the people whose God is the Lord.
