| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | Septuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Blessed is the man that feareth the Lord: he shall delight exceedingly in his commandments. | Alleluia, reversionis Aggaei et Zachariae. Beatus vir qui timet Dominum: in mandatis eius volet nimis. | Ἀλληλούϊα. Μακάριος ἀνὴρ ὁ φοβούμενος τὸν Κύριον, ἐν ταῖς ἐντολαῖς αὐτοῦ θελήσει σφόδρα. |
| 2 | His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the righteous shall be blessed. | Potens in terra erit semen eius; generatio rectorum benedicetur. | Δυνατὸν ἐν τῇ γῇ ἔσται τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ, γενεὰ εὐθέων εὐλογηθήσεται· |
| 3 | Glory and wealth shall be in his house: and his justice remaineth for ever and ever. | Gloria et divitiae in domo eius, et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi. | Δόξα καὶ πλοῦτος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ δικαιοσύνη αὐτοῦ μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος. |
| 4 | To the righteous a light is risen up in darkness: he is merciful, and compassionate and just. | Exortum est in tenebris lumen rectis: misericors, et miserator, et iustus. | Ἐξανέτειλεν ἐν σκότει φῶς τοῖς εὐθέσιν· ἐλεήμων καὶ οἰκτίρμων καὶ δίκαιος. |
| 5 | Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment: | Iucundus homo qui miseretur et commodat; disponet sermones suos in iudicio: | Χρηστὸς ἀνὴρ ὁ οἰκτείρων καὶ κιχρῶν, οἰκονομήσει τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ ἐν κρίσει, |
| 6 | Because he shall not be moved for ever. | quia in aeternum non commovebitur. | ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα οὐ σαλευθήσεται· εἰς μνημόσυνον αἰώνιον ἔσται δίκαιος. |
| 7 | The just shall be in everlasting remembrance: he shall not hear the evil hearing. His heart is ready to hope in the Lord: | In memoria aeterna erit iustus; ab auditione mala non timebit. Paratum cor eius sperare in Domino, | Ἀπὸ ἀκοῆς πονηρᾶς οὐ φοβηθήσεται· ἑτοίμη ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ ἐλπίζειν ἐπὶ Κύριον· |
| 8 | His heart is strengthened, he shall not be moved until he look over his enemies. | confirmatum est cor eius; non commovebitur donec despiciat inimicos suos. | Ἐστήρικται ἡ καρδία αὐτοῦ, οὐ φοβηθῇ, ἕως οὗ ἐπίδῃ ἐπὶ τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτοῦ. |
| 9 | He hath distributed, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever and ever: his horn shall be exalted in glory. | Dispersit, dedit pauperibus; iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi: cornu eius exaltabitur in gloria. | Ἐσκόρπισεν, ἔδωκε τοῖς πένησιν, ἡ δικαιοσύνη αὐτοῦ μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος· τὸ κέρας αὐτοῦ ὑψωθήσεται ἐν δόξῃ. |
| 10 | The wicked shall see, and shall be angry, he shall gnash with his teeth and pine away: the desire of the wicked shall perish. | Peccator videbit, et irascetur; dentibus suis fremet et tabescet: desiderium peccatorum peribit. | Ἁμαρτωλὸς ὄψεται καὶ ὀργισθήσεται, τοὺς ὀδόντας αὐτοῦ βρύξει καὶ τακήσεται· ἐπιθυμία ἁμαρτωλοῦ ἀπολεῖται. |
