Psalm 134 [MT 135]

[Alleluia.] Praise ye the name of the Lord; praise the Lord, [ye his] servants,

᾿Αλληλούΐα. - ΑΙΝΕΙΤΕ τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου, αἰνεῖτε, δοῦλοι, Κύριον,

who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God.

οἱ ἑστῶτες ἐν οἴκῳ Κυρίου, ἐν αὐλαῖς οἴκου Θεοῦ ἡμῶν.

Praise ye the Lord; for the Lord is good: sing praises to his name; for [it is] good.

αἰνεῖτε τὸν Κύριον, ὅτι ἀγαθὸς Κύριος· ψάλατε τῷ ὀνόματι αὐτοῦ, ὅτι καλόν·

For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself, [and] Israel for his peculiar treasure.

ὅτι τὸν ᾿Ιακὼβ ἐξελέξατο ἑαυτῷ ὁ Κύριος, ᾿Ισραὴλ εἰς περιουσιασμὸν ἑαυτῷ.

For I know that the Lord is great, and our Lord is above all gods;

ὅτι ἐγὼ ἔγνωκα ὅτι μέγας ὁ Κύριος, καὶ ὁ Κύριος ἡμῶν παρὰ πάντας τοὺς θεούς.

all that the Lord willed, he did in heaven, and on the earth, in the sea, and in all deeps.

πάντα, ὅσα ἠθέλησεν ὁ Κύριος ἐποίησεν ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐν τῇ γῇ, ἐν ταῖς θαλάσσαις καὶ ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἀβύσσοις·

Who brings up clouds from the extremity of the earth: he has made lightnings for the rain: he brings winds out of his treasures.

ἀνάγων νεφέλας ἐξ ἐσχάτου τῆς γῆς, ἀστραπὰς εἰς ὑετὸν ἐποίησεν· ὁ ἐξάγων ἀνέμους ἐκ θησαυρῶν αὐτοῦ,

Who smote the first-born of Egypt, both of man and beast.

ὃς ἐπάταξε τὰ πρωτότοκα Αἰγύπτου ἀπὸ ἀνθρώπου ἕως κτήνους.

He sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, on Pharao, and on all his servants.

ἐξαπέστειλε σημεῖα καὶ τέρατα ἐν μέσῳ σου, Αἴγυπτε, ἐν Φαραὼ καὶ ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς δούλοις αὐτοῦ.

Who smote many nations, and slew mighty kings;

ὃς ἐπάταξεν ἔθνη πολλὰ καὶ ἀπέκτεινε βασιλεῖς κραταιούς.

Seon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Basan, and all the kingdoms of Chanaan:

τὸν Σηὼν βασιλέα τῶν ᾿Αμορραίων καὶ τὸν ῍Ωγ βασιλέα τῆς Βασὰν καὶ πάσας τὰς βασιλείας Χαναάν,

and gave their land [for] an inheritance, an inheritance to Israel his people.

καὶ ἔδωκε τὴν γῆν αὐτῶν κληρονομίαν, κληρονομίαν ᾿Ισραὴλ λαῷ αὐτοῦ.

O Lord, thy name [endures] for ever, and thy memorial to all generations.

Κύριε, τὸ ὄνομά σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ τὸ μνημόσυνόν σου εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεάν.

For the Lord shall judge his people, and comfort himself concerning his servants.

ὅτι κρινεῖ Κύριος τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τοῖς δούλοις αὐτοῦ παρακληθήσεται.

The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the works of men’s hands.

τὰ εἴδωλα τῶν ἐθνῶν ἀργύριον καὶ χρυσίον, ἔργα χειρῶν ἀνθρώπων·

They have a mouth, but they cannot speak; they have eyes, but they cannot see;

στόμα ἔχουσι καὶ οὐ λαλήσουσιν, ὀφθαλμοὺς ἔχουσι καὶ οὐκ ὄψονται,

they have ears, but they cannot hear; for there is no breath in their mouth.

ὦτα ἔχουσι καὶ οὐκ ἐνωτισθήσονται, οὐδὲ γάρ ἐστι πνεῦμα ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν.

Let those who make them be made like to them; and all those who trust in them.

ὅμοιοι αὐτοῖς γένοιντο οἱ ποιοῦντες αὐτὰ καὶ πάντες οἱ πεποιθότες ἐπ᾿ αὐτοῖς.

O house of Israel, bless ye the Lord: O house of Aaron, bless ye the Lord:

οἶκος ᾿Ισραήλ, εὐλογήσατε τὸν Κύριον· οἶκος ᾿Ααρών, εὐλογήσατε τὸν Κύριον.

O house of Levi, bless ye the Lord: ye that fear the Lord, bless the Lord.

οἶκος Λευΐ, εὐλογήσατε τὸν Κύριον· οἱ φοβούμενοι τὸν Κύριον, εὐλογήσατε τὸν Κύριον,

Blessed in Sion be the Lord, who dwells in Jerusalem.

εὐλογητὸς Κύριος ἐκ Σιών, ὁ κατοικῶν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ.
