| 2 ἀγαθὸν τὸ ἐξομολογεῖσθαι τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ψάλλειν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ὕψιστε 3 τοῦ ἀναγγέλλειν τὸ πρωὶ τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου κατὰ νύκτα 4 ἐν δεκαχόρδῳ ψαλτηρίῳ με{T'} ᾠδῆς ἐν κιθάρᾳ 5 ὅτι εὔφρανάς με κύριε ἐν τῷ ποιήματί σου καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τῶν χειρῶν σου ἀγαλλιάσομαι 6 ὡς ἐμεγαλύνθη τὰ ἔργα σου κύριε σφόδρα ἐβαθύνθησαν οἱ διαλογισμοί σου 7 ἀνὴρ ἄφρων οὐ γνώσεται καὶ ἀσύνετος οὐ συνήσει ταῦτα 8 ἐν τῷ ἀνατεῖλαι τοὺς ἁμαρτωλοὺς ὡς χόρτον καὶ διέκυψαν πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν ὅπως ἂν ἐξολεθρευθῶσιν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος 9 σὺ δὲ ὕψιστος εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κύριε 10 ὅτι ἰδοὺ οἱ ἐχθροί σου ἀπολοῦνται καὶ διασκορπισθήσονται πάντες οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν |
2 Sweet it is to praise the Lord, to sing, most high God, in honour of thy name; 3 to proclaim thy mercy and faithfulness at daybreak and at the fall of night. 4 Here is a theme for ten-stringed harp and viol, for music of voice and zither; 5 so delightsome, Lord, is all thou doest, so thrills my heart at the sight of all thou hast made. 6 How magnificent is thy creation, Lord, how unfathomable are thy purposes! 7 And still, too dull to learn, too slow to grasp his lesson, the wrong-doer goes on in his busy wickedness. 8 Still he thrives, makes a brave show like the grass in spring, yet is he doomed to perish eternally, 9 whilst thou, Lord, art for ever exalted on high. 10 Vanished away thy enemies, Lord, vanished away, and all their busy wickedness scattered to the winds! |
2 Bonum est confiteri Domino,
et psallere nomini tuo, Altissime: 3
ad annuntiandum mane misericordiam tuam,
et veritatem tuam per noctem, 4
in decachordo, psalterio;
cum cantico, in cithara. 5
Quia delectasti me, Domine, in factura tua;
et in operibus manuum tuarum exsultabo. 6
Quam magnificata sunt opera tua, Domine!
nimis profundæ factæ sunt cogitationes tuæ. 7
Vir insipiens non cognoscet,
et stultus non intelliget hæc. 8
Cum exorti fuerint peccatores sicut fœnum,
et apparuerint omnes qui operantur iniquitatem,
ut intereant in sæculum sæculi: 9
tu autem Altissimus in æternum, Domine. 10
Quoniam ecce inimici tui, Domine,
quoniam ecce inimici tui peribunt;
et dispergentur omnes qui operantur iniquitatem. |
