| Douay-Rheims | Septuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587) | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Unto the end, a psalm for the sons of Core. | Εἰς τὸ τέλος, τοῖς υἱοῖς Κορὲ ψαλμός. |
| 2 | Hear these things, all ye nations: give ear, all ye inhabitants of the world. | Ἀκούσατε ταῦτα πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, ἐνωτίσασθε πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν οἰκουμένην, |
| 3 | All you that are earthborn, and you sons of men: both rich and poor together. | οἵ τε γηγενεῖς καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ἐπιτοαυτὸ πλούσιος καὶ πένης. |
| 4 | My mouth shall speak wisdom: and the meditation of my heart understanding. | Τὸ στόμα μου λαλήσει σοφίαν, καὶ ἡ μελέτη τῆς καρδίας μου σύνεσιν. |
| 5 | I will incline my ear to a parable; I will open my proposition on the psaltery. | Κλινῶ εἰς παραβολὴν τὸ οὖς μου, ἀνοίξω ἐν ψαλτηρίῳ τὸ πρόβλημά μου. |
| 6 | Why shall I fear in the evil day? the iniquity of my heel shall encompass me. | Ἱνατί φοβοῦμαι ἐν ἡμέρᾳ πονηρᾷ; ἡ ἀνομία τῆς πτέρνης μου κυκλώσει με. |
| 7 | They that trust in their own strength, and glory in the multitude of their riches, | Οἱ πεποιθότες ἐπὶ τῇ δυνάμει αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ πλήθει τοῦ πλούτου αὐτῶν καυχώμενοι. |
| 8 | No brother can redeem, nor shall man redeem: he shall not give to God his ransom, | Ἀδελφὸς οὐ λυτροῦται, λυτρώσεται ἄνθρωπος; οὐ δώσει τῷ Θεῷ ἐξίλασμα ἑαυτοῦ, |
| 9 | Nor the price of the redemption of his soul: and shall labour for ever, | καὶ τὴν τιμὴν τῆς λυτρώσεως τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτοῦ· καὶ ἐκοπίασεν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, |
| 10 | And shall still live unto the end. | καὶ ζήσεται εἰς τέλος· ὅτι οὐκ ὄψεται καταφθορὰν, |
| 11 | He shall not see destruction, when he shall see the wise dying: the senseless and the fool shall perish together: And they shall leave their riches to strangers: | Ὅταν ἴδῃ σοφοὺς ἀποθνήσκοντας, ἐπιτοαυτὸ ἄφρων καὶ ἄνους ἀπολοῦνται, καὶ καταλείψουσιν ἀλλοτρίοις τὸν πλοῦτον αὐτῶν. |
| 12 | And their sepulchres shall be their houses for ever. Their dwelling places to all generations: they have called their lands by their names. | Καὶ οἱ τάφοι αὐτῶν οἰκίαι αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, σκηνώματα αὐτῶν εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεὰν, ἐπεκαλέσαντο τὰ ὀνόματα αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῶν γαιῶν αὐτῶν. |
| 13 | And man when he was in honour did not understand; he is compared to senseless beasts, and is become like to them. | Καὶ ἄνθρωπος ἐν τιμῇ ὢν, οὐ συνῆκε, παρασυνεβλήθη τοῖς κτήνεσι τοῖς ἀνοήτοις, καὶ ὡμοιώθη αὐτοῖς. |
| 14 | This way of theirs is a stumblingblock to them: and afterwards they shall delight in their mouth. | Αὕτη ἡ ὁδὸς αὐτῶν σκάνδαλον αὐτοῖς, καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἐν τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν εὐλογήσουσι· διάψαλμα. |
| 15 | They are laid in hell like sheep: death shall feed upon them. And the just shall have dominion over them in the morning; and their help shall decay in hell from their glory. | Ὡς πρόβατα ἐν ᾅδῃ ἔθεντο, θάνατος ποιμανεῖ αὐτούς· καὶ κατακυριεύσουσιν αὐτῶν οἱ εὐθεῖς τοπρωῒ, καὶ ἡ βοήθεια αὐτῶν παλαιωθήσεται ἐν τῷ ᾅδῃ ἐκ τῆς δόξης αὐτῶν. |
| 16 | But God will redeem my soul from the hand of hell, when he shall receive me. | Πλὴν ὁ Θεὸς λυτρώσεται τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ χειρὸς ᾅδου, ὅταν λαμβάνῃ με· διάψαλμα. |
| 17 | Be not thou afraid, when a man shall be made rich, and when the glory of his house shall be increased. | Μὴ φοβοῦ ὅταν πλουτήσῃ ἄνθρωπος, καὶ ὅταν πληθυνθῇ ἡ δόξα τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ. |
| 18 | For when he shall die he shall take nothing away; nor shall his glory descend with him. | Ὅτι οὐκ ἐν τῷ ἀποθνήσκειν αὐτὸν λήψεται τὰ πάντα, οὐδὲ συγκαταβήσεται αὐτῷ ἡ δόξα αὐτοῦ. |
| 19 | For in his lifetime his soul will be blessed: and he will praise thee when thou shalt do well to him. | Ὅτι ἡ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ ἐν τῇ ζωῇ αὐτοῦ εὐλογηθήσεται, ἐξομολογήσεταί σοι ὅταν ἀγαθύνῃς αὐτῷ. |
| 20 | He shall go in to the generations of his fathers: and he shall never see light. | Εἰσελεύσεται ἕως γενεᾶς πατέρων αὐτοῦ, ἕως αἰῶνος οὐκ ὄψεται φῶς. |
| 21 | Man when he was in honour did not understand: he hath been compared to senseless beasts, and made like to them. | Ἄνθρωπος ἐν τιμῇ ὢν, οὐ συνῆκε, παρασυνεβλήθη τοῖς κτήνεσι τοῖς ἀνοήτοις, καὶ ὡμοιώθη αὐτοῖς. |
