| 1 ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν μνήσθητι κύριε τοῦ Δαυιδ καὶ πάσης τῆς πραΰτητος αὐτοῦ 2 ὡς ὤμοσεν τῷ κυρίῳ ηὔξατο τῷ θεῷ Ιακωβ 3 εἰ εἰσελεύσομαι εἰς σκήνωμα οἴκου μου εἰ ἀναβήσομαι ἐπὶ κλίνης στρωμνῆς μου 4 εἰ δώσω ὕπνον τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς μου καὶ τοῖς βλεφάροις μου νυσταγμὸν καὶ ἀνάπαυσιν τοῖς κροτάφοις μου 5 ἕως οὗ εὕρω τόπον τῷ κυρίῳ σκήνωμα τῷ θεῷ Ιακωβ 6 ἰδοὺ ἠκούσαμεν αὐτὴν ἐν Εφραθα εὕρομεν αὐτὴν ἐν τοῖς πεδίοις τοῦ δρυμοῦ 7 εἰσελευσόμεθα εἰς τὰ σκηνώματα αὐτοῦ προσκυνήσομεν εἰς τὸν τόπον οὗ ἔστησαν οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ 8 ἀνάστηθι κύριε εἰς τὴν ἀνάπαυσίν σου σὺ καὶ ἡ κιβωτὸς τοῦ ἁγιάσματός σου 9 οἱ ἱερεῖς σου ἐνδύσονται δικαιοσύνην καὶ οἱ ὅσιοί σου ἀγαλλιάσονται 10 ἕνεκεν Δαυιδ τοῦ δούλου σου μὴ ἀποστρέψῃς τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ χριστοῦ σου 11 ὤμοσεν κύριος τῷ Δαυιδ ἀλήθειαν καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀθετήσει αὐτήν ἐκ καρποῦ τῆς κοιλίας σου θήσομαι ἐπὶ τὸν θρόνον σου 12 ἐὰν φυλάξωνται οἱ υἱοί σου τὴν διαθήκην μου καὶ τὰ μαρτύριά μου ταῦτα ἃ διδάξω αὐτούς καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτῶν ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος καθιοῦνται ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου σου 13 ὅτι ἐξελέξατο κύριος τὴν Σιων ᾑρετίσατο αὐτὴν εἰς κατοικίαν ἑαυτῷ 14 αὕτη ἡ κατάπαυσίς μου εἰς αἰῶνα αἰῶνος ὧδε κατοικήσω ὅτι ᾑρετισάμην αὐτήν 15 τὴν θήραν αὐτῆς εὐλογῶν εὐλογήσω τοὺς πτωχοὺς αὐτῆς χορτάσω ἄρτων 16 τοὺς ἱερεῖς αὐτῆς ἐνδύσω σωτηρίαν καὶ οἱ ὅσιοι αὐτῆς ἀγαλλιάσει ἀγαλλιάσονται 17 ἐκεῖ ἐξανατελῶ κέρας τῷ Δαυιδ ἡτοίμασα λύχνον τῷ χριστῷ μου 18 τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ ἐνδύσω αἰσχύνην ἐπὶ δὲ αὐτὸν ἐξανθήσει τὸ ἁγίασμά μου | 1 O Lord, remember David, and all his meekness. 2 How he swore to the Lord, he vowed a vow to the God of Jacob: 3 If I shall enter into the tabernacle of my house: if I shall go up into the bed wherein I lie: 4 If I shall give sleep to my eyes, or slumber to my eyelids, 5 or rest to my temples: until I find out a place for the Lord, a tabernacle for the God of Jacob. 6 Behold we have heard of it in Ephrata: we have found it in the fields of the wood. 7 We will go into his tabernacle: we will adore in the place where his feet stood. 8 Arise, O Lord, into your resting place: you and the ark, which you have sanctified. 9 Let your priests be clothed with justice: and let your saints rejoice. 10 For your servant David's sake, turn not away the face of your anointed. 11 The Lord has sworn truth to David, and he will not make it void: of the fruit of your womb I will set upon your throne. 12 If your children will keep my covenant, and these my testimonies which I shall teach them: Their children also for evermore shall sit upon your throne. 13 For the Lord has chosen Sion: he has chosen it for his dwelling. 14 This is my rest for ever and ever: here will I dwell, for I have chosen it. 15 Blessing I will bless her widow: I will satisfy her poor with bread. 16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall rejoice with exceeding great joy. 17 There will I bring forth a horn to David: I have prepared a lamp for my anointed. 18 His enemies I will clothe with confusion: but upon him shall my sanctification flourish. | 1 Memento, Domine, David, et omnis mansuetudinis ejus: 2 sicut juravit Domino; votum vovit Deo Jacob: 3 Si introiero in tabernaculum domus meæ; si ascendero in lectum strati mei; 4 si dedero somnum oculis meis, et palpebris meis dormitationem, 5 et requiem temporibus meis, donec inveniam locum Domino, tabernaculum Deo Jacob. 6 Ecce audivimus eam in Ephrata; invenimus eam in campis silvæ. 7 Introibimus in tabernaculum ejus; adorabimus in loco ubi steterunt pedes ejus. 8 Surge, Domine, in requiem tuam, tu et arca sanctificationis tuæ. 9 Sacerdotes tui induantur justitiam, et sancti tui exsultent. 10 Propter David servum tuum non avertas faciem christi tui. 11 Juravit Dominus David veritatem, et non frustrabitur eam : De fructu ventris tui ponam super sedem tuam. 12 Si custodierint filii tui testamentum meum, et testimonia mea hæc quæ docebo eos, et filii eorum usque in sæculum sedebunt super sedem tuam. 13 Quoniam elegit Dominus Sion : elegit eam in habitationem sibi. 14 Hæc requies mea in sæculum sæculi; hic habitabo, quoniam elegi eam. 15 Viduam ejus benedicens benedicam; pauperes ejus saturabo panibus. 16 Sacerdotes ejus induam salutari, et sancti ejus exsultatione exsultabunt. 17 Illuc producam cornu David; paravi lucernam christo meo. 18 Inimicos ejus induam confusione; super ipsum autem efflorebit sanctificatio mea. |
