Parallel
Psalms 43
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
Εἰς τὸ τέλος· τοῖς υἱοῖς Κόρε εἰς σύνεσιν ψαλμός.
Vindicate me, O God, and plead my case against an ungodly nation; deliver me from deceitful and unjust men.
Ὁ θεός, ἐν τοῖς ὠσὶν ἡμῶν ἠκούσαμεν, οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν ἀνήγγειλαν ἡμῖν, ἔργον ὃ εἰργάσω ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτῶν, ἐν ἡμέραις ἀρχαίαις.
44:1
For the choirmaster. A Maskil (note: Maskil is probably a musical or liturgical term; used for Psalms 32, 42, 44–45, 52–55, 74, 78, 88–89, and 142.) of the sons of Korah. We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us the work You did in their days, in the days of old.
ἡ χείρ σου ἔθνη ἐξωλόθρευσεν, καὶ κατεφύτευσας αὐτούς, ἐκάκωσας λαοὺς καὶ ἐξέβαλες αὐτούς.
44:2
With Your hand You drove out the nations and planted our fathers there; You crushed the peoples and cast them out.
οὐ γὰρ ἐν τῇ ῥομφαίᾳ αὐτῶν ἐκληρονόμησαν γῆν. καὶ ὁ βραχίων αὐτῶν οὐκ ἔσωσεν αὐτούς· ἀλλ᾿ ἡ δεξιά σου καὶ ὁ βραχίων σου καὶ ὁ φωτισμὸς τοῦ προσώπου σου, ὅτι εὐδόκησας ἐν αὐτοῖς.
44:3
For it was not by their sword that they took the land; their arm did not bring them victory. It was by Your right hand, Your arm, and the light of Your face, because You favored them.
σὺ εἶ αὐτὸς ὁ βασιλεύς μου καὶ ὁ θεός μου, ὁ ἐντελλόμενος τὰς σωτηρίας Ἰακώβ.
44:4
You are my King, O God, who ordains victories for Jacob.
ἐν σοὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ἡμῶν κερατιοῦμεν, καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἐξουθενώσομεν τοὺς ἐπανιστανομένους ἡμῖν.
44:5
Through You we repel our foes; through Your name we trample our enemies.
οὐ γὰρ ἐπὶ τῷ τόξῳ μου ἐλπιῶ, καὶ ἡ ῥομφαία μου οὐ σώσει με·
44:6
For I do not trust in my bow, nor does my sword save me (note: Or give me victory; similarly in verse 7).
ἐν τῷ θεῷ ἐπαινεσθησόμεθα ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν, καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματί σου ἐξομολογησόμεθα εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα. διάψαλμα.
44:8
In God we have boasted all day long, and Your name we will praise forever. Selah
νυνὶ δὲ ἀπώσω καὶ κατῄσχυνας ἡμᾶς, καὶ οὐκ ἐξελεύσῃ ἐν ταῖς δυνάμεσιν ἡμῶν.
44:9
But You have rejected and humbled us; You no longer go forth with our armies.
ἀπέστρεψας ἡμᾶς εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω παρὰ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς ἡμῶν. καὶ οἱ μισοῦντες ἡμᾶς διήρπαζον ἑαυτοῖς·
44:10
You have made us retreat from the foe, and those who hate us have plundered us.
ἔδωκας ἡμᾶς ὡς πρόβατα βρώσεως, καὶ ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν διέσπειρας ἡμᾶς·
44:11
You have given us up as sheep to be devoured; You have scattered us among the nations.
ἀπέδου τὸν λαόν σου ἄνευ τιμῆς, καὶ οὐκ ἣν πλῆθος ἐν τοῖς ἀλαλάγμασιν αὐτῶν·
44:12
You sell Your people for nothing; no profit do You gain from their sale.
ἔθου ἡμᾶς ὄνειδος τοῖς γείτοσιν ἡμῶν, μυκτηρισμὸν καὶ καταγέλωτα τοῖς κύκλῳ ἡμῶν·
44:13
You have made us a reproach to our neighbors, a mockery and derision to those around us.
ἔθου ἡμᾶς εἰς παραβολὴν ἐν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, κίνησιν κεφαλῆς ἐν τοῖς λαοῖς.
44:14
You have made us a byword among the nations, a laughingstock among the peoples.
ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν ἡ ἐντροπὴ μου κατεναντίον μού ἐστιν, καὶ ἡ αἰσχύνη τοῦ προσώπου μου ἐκάλυψέν με,
44:15
All day long my disgrace is before me, and shame has covered my face,
ἀπὸ φωνῆς ὀνειδίζοντος καὶ παραλαλοῦντος, ἀπὸ προσώπου ἐχθροῦ καὶ ἐκδιώκοντος.
44:16
at the voice of the scorner and reviler, because of the enemy, bent on revenge.
ταῦτα πάντα ἦλθεν ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς, καὶ οὐκ ἐπελαθόμεθά σου. καὶ οὐκ ἠδικήσαμεν ἐν διαθήκῃ σου·
44:17
All this has come upon us, though we have not forgotten You or betrayed Your covenant.
καὶ οὐκ ἀπέστη εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω ἡ καρδία ἡμῶν, καὶ ἐξέκλινας τοὺς τρίβους ἡμῶν ἀπὸ τῆς ὁδοῦ σου.
44:18
Our hearts have not turned back; our steps have not strayed from Your path.
ὄτι ἐταπείνωσας ἡμᾶς ἐν τόπῳ κακώσεως, καὶ ἐπεκάλυψεν ἡμᾶς σκιὰ θανάτου.
44:19
But You have crushed us in the lair of jackals (note: Or serpents or dragons); You have covered us with deepest darkness.
εἰ ἐπελαθόμεθα τοῦ ὀνόματος τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν, καὶ εἰ διεπετάσαμεν χεῖρας ἡμῶν πρὸς θεὸν ἀλλότριον.
44:20
If we had forgotten the name of our God or spread out our hands to a foreign god,
οὐχὶ ὁ θεὸς ἐκζητήσει ταῦτα; αὐτὸς γὰρ γινώσκει τὰ κρύφια τῆς καρδίας.
44:21
would not God have discovered, since He knows the secrets of the heart?
ὅτι ἕνεκα σοῦ θανατούμεθα ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν, ἐλογίσθημεν ὡς πρόβατα σφαγῆς.
44:22
Yet for Your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered (note: Cited in Romans 8:36).
ἐξεγέρθητι· ἵνα τί ὑπνοῖς, κύριε ἀνάστηθι καὶ μὴ ἀπώσῃ εἰς τέλος.
44:23
Wake up, O Lord! Why are You sleeping? Arise! Do not reject us forever.
ἵνα τί τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἀποστρέφεις ἐπιλανθάνῃ τῆς πτωχίας ἡμῶν καὶ τῆς θλίψεως ἡμῶν
44:24
Why do You hide Your face and forget our affliction and oppression?
ὅτι ἐταπεινώθη εἰς χοῦν ἡ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν, ἐκολλήθη εἰς γῆν ἡ γαστὴρ ἡμῶν.
44:25
For our soul has sunk to the dust; our bodies cling to the earth.
ἀνάστα, Κύριε, βοήθησον ἡμῖν καὶ λύτρωσαι ἡμᾶς ἕνεκεν τοῦ ὀνόματός σου.
44:26
Rise up; be our help! Redeem us on account of Your loving devotion.
