| Douay-Rheims | Septuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587) | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion. | Ἀλληλούϊα· Ἀγγαίου καὶ Ζαχαρίου. Ἐπαίνει, Ἱερουσαλήμ, τὸν Κύριον, αἴνει τὸν Θεόν σου Σιών. |
| 2 | Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee. | Ὅτι ἐνίσχυσεν τοὺς μοχλοὺς τῶν πυλῶν σου, εὐλόγησεν τοὺς υἱούς σου ἐν σοί. |
| 3 | Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn. | Ὁ τιθεὶς τὰ ὅριά σου εἰρήνην, καὶ στέαρ πυροῦ ἐμπιπλῶν σε· |
| 4 | Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly. | Ὁ ἀποστέλλων τὸ λόγιον αὐτοῦ τῇ γῇ, ἕως τάχους δραμεῖται ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ· |
| 5 | Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes. | Τοῦ διδόντος χιόνα ὡσεὶ ἔριον, ὁμίχλην ὡσεὶ σποδὸν πάσσοντος· |
| 6 | He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold? | Βάλλοντος κρύσταλλον αὐτοῦ ὠσεὶ ψωμούς· κατὰ πρόσωπον ψύχους αὐτοῦ τίς ὑποστήσεται; |
| 7 | He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run. | Ἀποστελεῖ τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ, καὶ τήξει αὐτά, πνεύσει τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ῥυήσεται ὕδατα. |
| 8 | Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel. | Ἀπαγγέλλων τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ τῷ Ἰακώβ, δικαιώματα καὶ κρίματα αὐτοῦ τῷ Ἰσραήλ. |
| 9 | He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia. | Οὐκ ἐποίησεν οὕτως παντὶ ἔθνει, καὶ τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐδήλωσεν αὐτοῖς. |
