1 ᾠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν πρὸς κύριον ἐν τῷ θλίβεσθαί με ἐκέκραξα καὶ εἰσήκουσέν μου 2 κύριε ῥῦσαι τὴν ψυχήν μου ἀπὸ χειλέων ἀδίκων καὶ ἀπὸ γλώσσης δολίας 3 τί δοθείη σοι καὶ τί προστεθείη σοι πρὸς γλῶσσαν δολίαν 4 τὰ βέλη τοῦ δυνατοῦ ἠκονημένα σὺν τοῖς ἄνθραξιν τοῖς ἐρημικοῖς 5 οἴμμοι ὅτι ἡ παροικία μου ἐμακρύνθη κατεσκήνωσα μετὰ τῶν σκηνωμάτων Κηδαρ 6 πολλὰ παρῴκησεν ἡ ψυχή μου 7 μετὰ τῶν μισούντων τὴν εἰρήνην ἤμην εἰρηνικός ὅταν ἐλάλουν αὐτοῖς ἐπολέμουν με δωρεάν | 1 Not unheeded I cry to the Lord in the hour of my distress. 2 Lord, have pity and deliver me from the treacherous lips, the perjured tongue. 3 Perjurer, he will give thee all thy deserts and more; 4 sharp arrows from a warrior’s bow, blazing faggots of broom. 5 Unhappy I, that live an exile in Mosoch, or dwell among the tents of Cedar! 6 Long banished here among the enemies of peace, 7 for peace I plead, and their cry is still for battle. | 1 Ad Dominum cum tribularer clamavi, et exaudivit me. 2 Domine, libera animam meam a labiis iniquis et a lingua dolosa. 3 Quid detur tibi, aut quid apponatur tibi ad linguam dolosam? 4 Sagittæ potentis acutæ, cum carbonibus desolatoriis. 5 Heu mihi, quia incolatus meus prolongatus est! habitavi cum habitantibus Cedar; 6 multum incola fuit anima mea. 7 Cum his qui oderunt pacem eram pacificus; cum loquebar illis, impugnabant me gratis. |
