Psalms 34
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Δίκασον, Κύριε, τοὺς ἀδικοῦντάς πολέμησον τοὺς πολεμοῦντάς με·
35:1
Of David. Contend with my opponents, O LORD; fight against those who fight against me.
ἐπιλαβοῦ ὅπλου καὶ θυρεοῦ, καὶ ἀνάστηθι εἰς βοήθειάν μοι·
35:2
Take up Your shield and buckler; arise and come to my aid.
ἔκχεον ῥομφαίαν καὶ σύνκλεισον ἐξ ἐναντίας τῶν·καταδιωκοντων με· εἰπὸν τῇ ψυχῇ μου Σωτηρία σου ἐγὼ εἰμι.
35:3
Draw the spear and javelin (note: Or and close the way) against my pursuers; say to my soul: “I am your salvation.”
αἰσχυνθείησαν καὶ ἐντραπείησαν οἱ ζητοῦντες τὴν ψυχήν μου. ἀποστραφείησαν εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω καὶ καταισχυνθείησαν οἱ λογιζόμενοί μοι κακά.
35:4
May those who seek my life be disgraced and put to shame; may those who plan to harm me be driven back and confounded.
γενηθήτωσαν ὡσεὶ χνοῦς κατὰ πρόσωπον ἀνέμου, καὶ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐκθλίβων αὐτούς·
35:5
May they be like chaff in the wind, as the angel of the LORD drives them away.
γενηθήτω ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτῶν σκότος καὶ ὀλίσθημα, καὶ ἄγγελος Κυρίου καταδιώκων αὐτούς.
35:6
May their path be dark and slick, as the angel of the LORD pursues.
ὅτι δωρεὰν ἔκρυψάν μοι διαφθορὰν παγίδος αὐτῶν, μάτην ὠνείδισαν τὴν ψυχὴν μου.
35:7
For without cause they laid their net for me; without reason they dug a pit for my soul.
ἐλθέτω αὐτοῖς παγὶς ἣν οὐ γινώσκουσιν, καὶ ἡ θήρα ἣν ἔκρυψαν συλλαβέτω αὐτούς. καὶ ἐν τῇ παγίδι πεσοῦνται ἐν αὐτῇ.
35:8
May ruin befall them by surprise; may the net they hid ensnare them; may they fall into the hazard they created.
ἡ δέ ψυχὴ μου ἀγαλλιάσεται ἐπὶ τῷ κυρίῳ, τερφθήσεται ἐπὶ τῷ σωτηρίῳ αὐτοῦ.
35:9
Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD and exult in His salvation.
πάντα τὰ ὀστᾶ μου ἐροῦσιν Κύριε, τίς ὅμοιός σοι ῥυόμενος πτωχὸν ἐκ χειρὸς στερεωτέρων αὐτοῦ, καὶ πτωχὸν καὶ πένητα ἀπὸ τῶν διαρπαζόντων αὐτόν.
35:10
All my bones will exclaim, “Who is like You, O LORD, who delivers the afflicted from the aggressor, the poor and needy from the robber?”
ἀναστάντες μάρτυρες ἄδικοι ἃ οὐκ ἐγίνωσκον ἐπηρώτων με·
35:11
Hostile witnesses come forward; they make charges I know nothing about.
ἀνταπεδίδοσάν μοι πονηρὰ ἀντὶ καλῶν, καὶ ἀτεκνίαν τῇ ψυχῇ μου·
35:12
They repay me evil for good, to the bereavement of my soul.
ἐγὼ δὲ ἐν τῷ αὐτοὺς παρενοχλεῖν μοι ἐνεδυόμην σάκκον, καὶ ἐταπείνουν ἐν νηστία τὴν ψυχὴν μου, καὶ ἡ προσευχὴ μου εἰς κόλπον μου ἀποστραφήσεται.
35:13
Yet when they were ill, I put on sackcloth; I humbled myself with fasting, but my prayers returned unanswered.
ὡς πλησίον, ὡς ἀδελφὸν ἡμέτερον, οὕτως εὐηρέστουν· ὡς πενθῶν καὶ σκυθρωπάζων οὕτως ἐταπεινούμην.
35:14
I paced about as for my friend or brother; I was bowed down with grief, like one mourning for his mother.
καὶ κατʼ ἐμοῦ ηὐφράνθησαν καὶ συνήχθησαν, συνήχθησαν ἐπʼ ἐμὲ μάστιγες καὶ οὐκ ἔγνων, διεσχίσθησαν καὶ οὐ κατενύγησαν·
35:15
But when I stumbled, they assembled in glee; they gathered together against me. Assailants I did not know slandered me without ceasing.
ἐπείρασάν με, ἐξεμυκτήρισάν με μυκτηρισμόν. ἔβρυξαν ἐπʼ ἐμὲ τοὺς ὀδόντας αὐτῶν.
35:16
Like godless jesters at a feast (note: Or Like a godless circle of mockers,), they gnashed their teeth at me.
Κύριε, πότε ἐπόψῃ; ἀποκατάστησον τὴν ψυχὴν μου ἀπὸ τῆς κακουργίας αὐτῶν, ἀπὸ λεόντων τὴν μονογενῆ μου.
35:17
How long, O Lord, will You look on? Rescue my soul from their ravages, my precious life from these lions.
ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι, Κύριε, ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ πολλῇ, ἐν λαῷ βαρεῖ αἰνέσω σε.
35:18
Then I will give You thanks in the great assembly; I will praise You among many people.
μὴ ἐπιχαρείησάν μοι οἱ ἐχθραίνοντές μοι ματαίως, οἱ μισοῦντές με δωρεὰν καὶ διανεύοντες ὀφθαλμοῖς.
35:19
Let not my enemies gloat over me without cause, nor those who hate me without reason wink in malice.
ὅτι ἐμοὶ μέν εἰρηνικὰ ἐλάλουν, καὶ ἐπʼ ὀργῇ δόλους διελογίζοντο·
35:20
For they do not speak peace, but they devise deceitful schemes against those who live quietly in the land.
καὶ ἐπλάτυναν ἐπʼ ἐμέ τὸ στόμα αὐτῶν, εἶπαν Εὖγε εὖγε, εἶδαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ ἡμῶν.
35:21
They gape at me and say, “Aha, aha! Our eyes have seen!”
εἶδες, Κύριε, μὴ παρασιωπήσῃς· Κύριε, μὴ ἀποστῇς ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ.
35:22
O LORD, You have seen it; be not silent. O Lord, be not far from me.
ἐξεγέρθητι, Κύριε, καὶ πρόσχες τῇ κρίσει μου. ὁ θεός μου καὶ ὁ κύριός μου, εἰς τὴν δίκην μου.
35:23
Awake and rise to my defense, to my cause, my God and my Lord!
κρῖνόν με, Κύριε, κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου, Κύριε ὁ θεός μου, καὶ μὴ ἐπιχαρείησάν μοι.
35:24
Vindicate me by Your righteousness, O LORD my God, and do not let them gloat over me.
μὴ εἴπαισαν ἐν καρδίαις αὐτῶν Εὖγε εὖγε τῇ ψυχῇ ἡμῶν· μηδὲ εἴπαισαν Κατεπίομεν αὐτόν.
35:25
Let them not say in their hearts, “Aha, just what we wanted!” Let them not say, “We have swallowed him up!”
αἰσχυνθείησαν καὶ ἐντραπείησαν ἄμα οἱ ἐπιχαίροντες τοῖς κακοῖςκοῖς μου· ἐνδυσάσθωσαν αἰσχύνην καὶ ἐντροπὴν οἱ μεγαλορημονοῦντες ἐπʼ ἐμέ.
35:26
May those who gloat in my distress be ashamed and confounded; may those who exalt themselves over me be clothed in shame and reproach.
ἀγαλλιάσαιντο καὶ εὐφρανθείησαν οἱ θέλοντες τὴν δικαιοσύνην μου, καὶ εἰπάτωσαν διὰ παντός Μεγαλυνθείη ὁ κύριος, οἱ θέλοντες τὴν εἰρήνην τοῦ δούλου αὐτοῦ.
35:27
May those who favor my vindication shout for joy and gladness; may they always say, “Exalted be the LORD who delights in His servant’s well-being.”
καὶ ἡ γλῶσσά μου μελετήσει τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου. ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν τὸν ἔπαινόν σου.
35:28
Then my tongue will proclaim Your righteousness and Your praises all day long.
