2
קוֹלִי אֶל־אֱלֹהִים וְאֶצְעָקָה קוֹלִי אֶל־אֱלֹהִים וְהַאֲזִין אֵלָי
I will lift up my voice unto G-d, an cry; I will lift up my voice unto G-d, that He may give ear unto me.
Φωνῇ μου πρὸς Κύριον ἐκέκραξα, καὶ ἡ φωνή μου πρὸς τὸν Θεὸν, καὶ προσέσχε μοι.
I cried to the Lord with my voice, Yea, my voice [was addressed] to God; and he gave heed to me.
3
בְּיוֹם צָרָתִי אֲדֹנָי דָּרָשְׁתִּי יָדִי לַיְלָה נִגְּרָה וְלֹא תָפוּג מֵאֲנָה הִנָּחֵם נַפְשִׁי
In the day of my trouble I seek the L-rd; with my hand uplifted, mine eye streameth in the night without ceasing; my soul refuseth to be comforted.
Ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεώς μου τὸν Θεὸν ἐξεζήτησα, ταῖς χερσί μου νυκτὸς ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ἠπατήθην· ἀπηνῄνατο παρακληθῆναι ἡ ψυχή μου·
In the day of mine affliction I earnestly sought the Lord; [Even] with my hands by night before him, and I was not deceived; My soul refused to be comforted.
4
אֶזְכְּרָה אֱלֹהִים וְאֶהֱמָיָה אָשִׂיחָה וְתִתְעַטֵּף רוּחִי סֶלָה
When I think thereon, O G-d, I must moan; when I muse thereon, my spirit fainteth. Selah
Ἐμνήσθην τοῦ Θεοῦ, καὶ εὐφράνθην, ἠδολέσχησα, καὶ ὠλιγοψύχησε τὸ πνεῦμά μου· διάψαλμα.
I remembered God, and rejoiced; I poured out my complaint, and my soul fainted. Pause.
5
אָחַזְתָּ שְׁמֻרוֹת עֵינָי נִפְעַמְתִּי וְלֹא אֲדַבֵּר
Thou holdest fast the lids of mine eyes; I am troubled, and cannot speak.
Προκατελάβοντο φυλακὰς πάντες οἱ ἐχθροί μου, ἐταράχθην καὶ οὐκ ἐλάλησα.
All mine enemies set a watch [against me]: I was troubled, and spoke not.
6
חִשַּׁבְתִּי יָמִים מִקֶּדֶם שְׁנוֹת עוֹלָמִים
I have pondered the days of old, the years of ancient times.
Διελογισάμην ἡμέρας ἀρχαίας, καὶ ἔτη αἰώνια
I considered the days of old, And remembered ancient years.
7
אֶזְכְּרָה נְגִינָתִי בַּלָּיְלָה עִם־לְבָבִי אָשִׂיחָה וַיְחַפֵּשׂ רוּחִי
In the night I will call to remembrance my song; I will commune with mine own heart; and my spirit maketh diligent search:
ἐμνήσθην, καὶ ἐμελέτησα· νυκτὸς μετὰ τῆς καρδίας μου ἠδολέσχουν, καὶ ἔσκαλλον τὸ πνεῦμά μου.
And I meditated; I communed with my heart by night, And diligently searched my spirit, [saying],
8
הַלְעוֹלָמִים יִזְנַח אֲדֹנָי וְלֹא־יֹסִיף לִרְצוֹת עוֹד
'Will the L-rd cast off for ever? and will He be favourable no more?
Μὴ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας ἀπώσεται Κύριος, καὶ οὐ προσθήσει τοῦ εὐδοκῆσαι ἔτι;
Will the Lord cast off forever? And will he be well pleased no more?
9
הֶאָפֵס לָנֶצַח חַסְדּוֹ גָּמַר אֹמֶר לְדֹר וָדֹר
Is His mercy clean gone for ever? Is His promise come to an end for evermore?
Ἢ εἰς τέλος ἀποκόψει τὸ ἔλεος ἀπὸ γενεᾶς καὶ γενεᾶς;
Will he cut off his mercy forever, Even forever and ever?
10
הֲשָׁכַח חַנּוֹת אֵל אִם־קָפַץ בְּאַף רַחֲמָיו סֶלָה
Hath G-d forgotten to be gracious? Hath He in anger shut up his compassions?' Selah
Ἢ ἐπιλήσεται τοῦ οἰκτειρῆσαι ὁ Θεὸς, ἢ συνέξει ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ αὐτοῦ τοὺς οἰκτιρμοὺς αὐτοῦ; διάψαλμα.
Will God forget to pity? Or will he shut up his compassions in his wrath? Pause.
11
וָאֹמַר חַלּוֹתִי הִיא שְׁנוֹת יְמִין עֶלְיוֹן
And I say: 'This is my weakness, that the right hand of the Most High could change.
Καὶ εἶπα, νῦν ἠρξάμην, αὕτη ἡ ἀλλοίωσις τῆς δεξιᾶς τοῦ ὑψίστου.
And I said, Now I have begun; This is the change of the right hand of the Most High.
12
אזכיר אֶזְכּוֹר מַעַלְלֵי־יָהּ כִּי־אֶזְכְּרָה מִקֶּדֶם פִּלְאֶךָ
I will make mention of the deeds of HaShem; yea, I will remember Thy wonders of old.
Ἐμνήσθην τῶν ἔργων Κυρίου, ὅτι μνησθήσομαι ἀπὸ τῆς ἀρχῆς τῶν θαυμασίων σου,
I remembered the works of the Lord; For I will remember thy wonders from the beginning.
13
וְהָגִיתִי בְכָל־פָּעֳלֶךָ וּבַעֲלִילוֹתֶיךָ אָשִׂיחָה
I will meditate also upon all Thy work, and muse on Thy doings.'
καὶ μελετήσω ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ἔργοις σου, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἐπιτηδεύμασί σου ἀδολεσχήσω.
And I will meditate on all thy works, And will consider thy doings.
14
אֱלֹהִים בַּקֹּדֶשׁ דַּרְכֶּךָ מִי־אֵל גָּדוֹל כֵּאלֹהִים
O G-d, Thy way is in holiness; who is a great god like unto G-d?
Ὁ Θεὸς ἐν τῷ ἁγίῳ ἡ ὁδός σου, τίς θεὸς μέγας ὡς ὁ Θεὸς ἡμῶν;
O God, thy way is in the sanctuary; Who is a great God as our God?
15
אַתָּה הָאֵל עֹשֵׂה פֶלֶא הוֹדַעְתָּ בָעַמִּים עֻזֶּךָ
Thou art the G-d that doest wonders; Thou hast made known Thy strength among the peoples.
Σὺ εἶ ὁ Θεὸς ὁ ποιῶν θαυμάσια, ἐγνώρισας ἐν τοῖς λαοῖς τὴν δύναμίν σου·
Thou art the God that doest wonders; Thou hast made known thy power among the nations.
16
גָּאַלְתָּ בִּזְרוֹעַ עַמֶּךָ בְּנֵי־יַעֲקֹב וְיוֹסֵף סֶלָה
Thou hast with Thine arm redeemed Thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
ἐλυτρώσω ἐν τῷ βραχίονί σου τὸν λαόν σου, τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰακὼβ καὶ Ἰωσήφ· διάψαλμα.
Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Pause.
17
רָאוּךָ מַּיִם אֱלֹהִים רָאוּךָ מַּיִם יָחִילוּ אַף יִרְגְּזוּ תְהֹמוֹת
The waters saw Thee, O G-d; the waters saw Thee, they were in pain; the depths also trembled.
Εἴδοσάν σε ὕδατα ὁ Θεὸς, εἴδοσάν σε ὕδατα καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν, καὶ ἐταράχθησαν ἄβυσσοι.
The waters saw thee, O God, The waters saw thee, and feared; And the depths were troubled.
18
זֹרְמוּ מַיִם עָבוֹת קוֹל נָתְנוּ שְׁחָקִים אַף־חֲצָצֶיךָ יִתְהַלָּכוּ
The clouds flooded forth waters; the skies sent out a sound; Thine arrows also went abroad.
Πλῆθος ἤχους ὑδάτων, φωνὴν ἔδωκαν αἱ νεφέλαι· καὶ γὰρ τὰ βέλη σου διαπορεύονται.
[There was] an abundant sound of waters: The clouds uttered a voice; For thine arrows went abroad.
19
קוֹל רַעַמְךָ בַּגַּלְגַּל הֵאִירוּ בְרָקִים תֵּבֵל רָגְזָה וַתִּרְעַשׁ הָאָרֶץ
The voice of Thy thunder was in the whirlwind; the lightnings lighted up the world; the earth trembled and shook.
Φωνὴ τῆς βροντῆς σου ἐν τῷ τροχῷ· ἔφαναν αἱ ἀστραπαί σου τῇ οἰκουμένῃ, ἐσαλεύθη καὶ ἔντρομος ἐγενήθη ἡ γῆ.
The voice of thy thunder was abroad, And around thy lightnings appeared to the world; The earth trembled and quaked.
20
בַּיָּם דַּרְכֶּךָ ושביליך וּשְׁבִילְךָ בְּמַיִם רַבִּים וְעִקְּבוֹתֶיךָ לֹא נֹדָעוּ
Thy way was in the sea, and Thy path in the great waters, and Thy footsteps were not known.
Ἐν τῇ θαλάσσῃ ἡ ὁδός σου, καὶ αἱ τρίβοι σου ἐν ὕδασι πολλοῖς, καὶ τὰ ἴχνη σου οὐ γνωσθήσονται.
Thy way is in the sea, And thy paths in many waters, And thy footsteps cannot be known.
21
נָחִיתָ כַצֹּאן עַמֶּךָ בְּיַד־מֹשֶׁה וְאַהֲרֹן
Thou didst lead Thy people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
Ὡδήγησας ὡς πρόβατα τὸν λαόν σου ἐν χειρὶ Μωυσῆ καὶ Ἀαρών.
Thou didst guide thy people as sheep By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
