Psalm 84 [MT 85]

1

[For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core.]

Εἰς τὸ τέλος· τοῖς υἱοῖς Κορὲ ψαλμός. -

2

O Lord, thou hast taken pleasure in thy land: thou hast turned back the captivity of Jacob.

ΕΥΔΟΚΗΣΑΣ, Κύριε, τὴν γῆν σου, ἀπέστρεψας τὴν αἰχμαλωσίαν ᾿Ιακώβ·

3

Thou hast forgiven thy people their transgressions; thou hast covered all their sins. Pause.

ἀφῆκας τὰς ἀνομίας τῷ λαῷ σου, ἐκάλυψας πάσας τὰς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν. (διάψαλμα).

4

Thou hast caused all thy wrath to cease: thou hast turned from thy fierce anger.

κατέπαυσας πᾶσαν τὴν ὀργήν σου, ἀπέστρεψας ἀπὸ ὀργῆς θυμοῦ σου.

5

Turn us, O God of our salvation, and turn thy anger away from us.

ἐπίστρεψον ἡμᾶς, ὁ Θεὸς τῶν σωτηρίων ἡμῶν, καὶ ἀπόστρεψον τὸν θυμόν σου ἀφ᾿ ἡμῶν.

6

Wouldest thou be angry with us for ever? or wilt thou continue thy wrath from generation to generation?

μὴ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας ὀργισθῇς ἡμῖν; ἢ διατενεῖς τὴν ὀργήν σου ἀπὸ γενεᾶς εἰς γενεάν;

7

O God, thou wilt turn and quicken us; and thy people shall rejoice in thee.

ὁ Θεός, σὺ ἐπιστρέψας ζωώσεις ἡμᾶς, καὶ ὁ λαός σου εὐφρανθήσεται ἐπὶ σοί.

8

Shew us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation.

δεῖξον ἡμῖν, Κύριε, τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ τὸ σωτήριόν σου δῴης ἡμῖν.

9

I will hear what the Lord God will say concerning me: for he shall speak peace to his people, and to his saints, and to those that turn their heart toward him.

ἀκούσομαι τί λαλήσει ἐν ἐμοὶ Κύριος ὁ Θεός, ὅτι λαλήσει εἰρήνην ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ὁσίους αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἐπιστρέφοντας καρδίαν ἐπ᾿ αὐτόν.

10

Moreover his salvation is near them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.

πλὴν ἐγγὺς τῶν φοβουμένων αὐτὸν τὸ σωτήριον αὐτοῦ τοῦ κατασκηνῶσαι δόξαν ἐν τῇ γῇ ἡμῶν.

11

Mercy and truth are met together: righteousness and peace have kissed [each other].

ἔλεος καὶ ἀλήθεια συνήντησαν, δικαιοσύνη καὶ εἰρήνη κατεφίλησαν·

12

Truth has sprung out of the earth; and righteousness has looked down from heaven.

ἀλήθεια ἐκ τῆς γῆς ἀνέτειλε, καὶ δικαιοσύνη ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ διέκυψε.

13

For the Lord will give goodness; and our land shall yield her fruit.

καὶ γὰρ ὁ Κύριος δώσει χρηστότητα, καὶ ἡ γῆ ἡμῶν δώσει τὸν καρπὸν αὐτῆς·

14

Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set his steps in the way.

δικαιοσύνη ἐναντίον αὐτοῦ προπορεύσεται καὶ θήσει εἰς ὁδὸν τὰ διαβήματα αὐτοῦ.
