RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Εγώ είμαι ο άνθρωπος, όστις είδον θλίψιν από της ράβδου του θυμού αυτού.
1 YO soy el hombre que ha visto aflicción en la vara de su enojo.
1 I am the man who has seen affliction by the rod of his wrath.
2 Με ώδήγησε και έφερεν εις σκότος και ουχί εις φως.
2 Guióme y llevóme en tinieblas, mas no en luz.
2 He has led me and caused me to walk in darkness, and not in light.
3 Ναι, κατ' εμού εστράφη· κατ' εμού έστρεψε την χείρα αυτού όλην την ημέραν.
3 Ciertamente contra mí volvió y revolvió su mano todo el día.
3 Surely he turns his hand against me again and again all day long.
4 Επαλαίωσε την σάρκα μου και το δέρμα μου· συνέτριψε τα οστά μου.
4 Hizo envejecer mi carne y mi piel; quebrantó mis huesos.
4 He has made my flesh and my skin old. He has broken my bones.
5 Ωικοδόμησε κατ' εμού και με περιεκύκλωσε χολήν και μόχθον.
5 Edificó contra mí, y cercóme de tósigo y de trabajo.
5 He has built against me, and surrounded me with bitterness and hardship.
6 Με εκάθισεν εν σκοτεινοίς ως νεκρούς αιωνίους.
6 Asentóme en oscuridades, como los ya muertos de mucho tiempo.
6 He has made me dwell in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
7 Με περιέφραξε, διά να μη εξέλθω· εβάρυνε τας αλύσεις μου.
7 Cercóme por todos lados, y no puedo salir; agravó mis grillos.
7 He has walled me about, so that I can’t go out. He has made my chain heavy.
8 Έτι και όταν κράζω και αναβοώ, αποκλείει την προσευχήν μου.
8 Aun cuando clamé y dí voces, cerro [los oídos á] mi oración.
8 Yes, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.
9 Περιέφραξε με πελεκητούς λίθους τας οδούς μου, εστρέβλωσε τας τρίβους μου.
9 Cercó mis caminos con piedra tajada, torció mis senderos.
9 He has walled up my ways with cut stone. He has made my paths crooked.
10 Έγεινεν εις εμέ άρκτος ενεδρεύουσα, λέων εν αποκρύφοις.
10 Como oso que acecha fué para mí, como león en escondrijos.
10 He is to me as a bear lying in wait, as a lion in hiding.
11 Παρέτρεψε τας οδούς μου και με κατεσπάραξε, με κατέστηαεν ηφανισμένην.
11 Torció mis caminos, y depedazóme; tornóme asolado.
11 He has turned away my path, and pulled me in pieces. He has made me desolate.
12 Ενέτεινε το τόξον αυτού και με έστησεν ως σκοπόν εις βέλος.
12 Su arco entesó, y púsome como blanco á la saeta.
12 He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.
13 Ενέπηξεν εις τα νεφρά μου τα βέλη της φαρέτρας αυτού.
13 Hizo entrar en mis riñones las saetas de su aljaba.
13 He has caused the shafts of his quiver to enter into my kidneys.
14 Έγεινα γέλως εις πάντα τον λαόν μου, άσμα αυτών όλην την ημέραν.
14 Fuí escarnio á todo mi pueblo, canción de ellos todos los días.
14 I have become a derision to all my people, and their song all day long.
15 Με εχόρτασε πικρίαν· με εμέθυσεν αψίνθιον.
15 Hartóme de amarguras, embriagóme de ajenjos.
15 He has filled me with bitterness. He has stuffed me with wormwood.
16 Και συνέτριψε τους οδόντας μου με χάλικας· με εκάλυψε με σποδόν.
16 Quebróme los dientes con cascajo, cubrióme de ceniza.
16 He has also broken my teeth with gravel. He has covered me with ashes.
17 Και απέσπρωξα, από ειρήνης την ψυχήν μου· ελησμόνησα το αγαθόν.
17 Y mi alma se alejó de la paz, olvidéme del bien.
17 You have removed my soul far away from peace. I forgot prosperity.
18 Και είπα, Απωλέσθη η δύναμίς μου και η ελπίς μου υπό του Κυρίου.
18 Y dije: Pereció mi fortaleza, y mi esperanza de Jehová.
18 I said, “My strength has perished, along with my expectation from Yahweh.”
19 Ενθυμήθητι την θλίψιν μου και την έξωσίν μου, το αψίνθιον και την χολήν.
19 Acuérdate de mi aflicción y de mi abatimiento, del ajenjo y de la hiel.
19 Remember my affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the bitterness.
20 Η ψυχή μου ενθυμείται ταύτα ακαταπαύστως και είναι τεταπεινωμένη εν εμοί.
20 Tendrálo aún en memoria mi alma, porque en mí está humillada.
20 My soul still remembers them, and is bowed down within me.
21 Τούτο ανακαλώ εις την καρδίαν μου, όθεν έχω ελπίδα·
21 Esto reduciré á mi corazón, por lo cual esperaré.
21 This I recall to my mind; therefore I have hope.
22 Έλεος του Κυρίου είναι, ότι δεν συνετελέσθημεν, επειδή δεν εξέλιπον οι οικτιρμοί αυτού.
22 [Es por] la misericordia de Jehová que no somos consumidos, porque nunca decayeron sus misericordias.
22 It is because of Yahweh’s loving kindnesses that we are not consumed, because his mercies don’t fail.
23 Ανανεόνονται εν ταις πρωΐαις· μεγάλη είναι η πιστότης σου.
23 Nuevas son cada mañana; grande es tu fidelidad.
23 They are new every morning. Great is your faithfulness.
24 Ο Κύριος είναι η μερίς μου, είπεν η ψυχή μου· διά τούτο θέλω ελπίζει επ' αυτόν.
24 Mi parte es Jehová, dijo mi alma; por tanto en él esperaré.
24 “Yahweh is my portion,” says my soul. “Therefore I will hope in him.”
25 Αγαθός ο Κύριος εις τους προσμένοντας αυτόν, εις την ψυχήν την εκζητούσαν αυτόν.
25 Bueno es Jehová á los que en él esperan, al alma que le buscare.
25 Yahweh is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him.
26 Καλόν είναι και να ελπίζη τις και να εφησυχάζη εις την σωτηρίαν του Κυρίου.
26 Bueno es esperar callando en la salud de Jehová.
26 It is good that a man should hope and quietly wait for the salvation of Yahweh.
27 Καλόν εις τον άνθρωπον να βαστάζη ζυγόν εν τη νεότητι αυτού.
27 Bueno es al hombre, si llevare el yugo desde su mocedad.
27 It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.
28 Θέλει κάθησθαι κατά μόνας και σιωπά, επειδή ο Θεός επέβαλε φορτίον επ' αυτόν.
28 Sentaráse solo, y callará, porque lo llevó sobre sí.
28 Let him sit alone and keep silence, because he has laid it on him.
29 Θέλει βάλει το στόμα αυτού εις το χώμα, ίσως ήναι ελπίς.
29 Pondrá su boca en el polvo, por si quizá hay esperanza.
29 Let him put his mouth in the dust, if it is so that there may be hope.
30 Θέλει δώσει την σιαγόνα εις τον ραπίζοντα αυτόν· θέλει χορτασθή από ονειδισμού.
30 Dará la mejilla al que le hiriere; hartaráse de afrenta.
30 Let him give his cheek to him who strikes him. Let him be filled full of reproach.
31 Διότι ο Κύριος δεν απορρίπτει εις τον αιώνα·
31 Porque el Señor no desechará para siempre:
31 For the Lord will not cast off forever.
32 Αλλ' εάν και θλίψη, θέλει όμως και οικτειρήσει κατά το πλήθος του ελέους αυτού.
32 Antes si afligiere, también se compadecerá según la multitud de sus misericordias.
32 For though he causes grief, yet he will have compassion according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
33 Διότι δεν θλίβει εκ καρδίας αυτού ουδέ καταθλίβει τους υιούς των ανθρώπων.
33 Porque no aflige ni congoja de su corazón á los hijos de los hombres.
33 For he does not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of men.
34 Το να καταπατή τις υπό τους πόδας αυτού πάντας τους δεσμίους της γης.
34 Desmenuzar bajo de sus pies todos los encarcelados de la tierra,
34 To crush under foot all the prisoners of the earth,
35 Το να διαστρέφη κρίσιν ανθρώπου κατέναντι του προσώπου του Υψίστου·
35 Hacer apartar el derecho del hombre ante la presencia del Altísimo,
35 to turn away the right of a man before the face of the Most High,
36 Το να αδική άνθρωπον εν τη δίκη αυτού· ο Κύριος δεν βλέπει ταύτα.
36 Trastornar al hombre en su causa, el Señor no lo sabe.
36 to subvert a man in his cause, the Lord doesn’t approve.
37 Τις λέγει τι και γίνεται, χωρίς να προστάξη αυτό ο Κύριος;
37 ¿Quién [será] aquel que diga, que vino [algo] que el Señor no mandó?
37 Who is he who says, and it comes to pass, when the Lord doesn’t command it?
38 Εκ του στόματος του Υψίστου δεν εξέρχονται τα κακά και τα αγαθά;
38 ¿De la boca del Altísimo no saldrá malo y bueno?
38 Doesn’t evil and good come out of the mouth of the Most High?
39 Διά τι ήθελε γογγύσει άνθρωπος ζων, άνθρωπος, διά την ποινήν της αμαρτίας αυτού;
39 ¿Por qué murmura el hombre viviente, el hombre en su pecado?
39 Why should a living man complain, a man for the punishment of his sins?
40 Ας ερευνήσωμεν τας οδούς ημών και ας εξετάσωμεν και ας επιστρέψωμεν εις τον Κύριον.
40 Escudriñemos nuestros caminos, y busquemos, y volvámonos á Jehová.
40 Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to Yahweh.
41 Ας υψώσωμεν τας καρδίας ημών και τας χείρας προς τον Θεόν τον εν τοις ουρανοίς, λέγοντες,
41 Levantemos nuestros corazones con las manos á Dios en los cielos.
41 Let’s lift up our heart with our hands to God in the heavens.
42 Ημαρτήσαμεν και απεστατήσαμεν· συ δεν μας συνεχώρησας.
42 Nosotros nos hemos rebelado, y fuimos desleales; tú no perdonaste.
42 “We have transgressed and have rebelled. You have not pardoned.
43 Περιεκάλυψας με θυμόν και κατεδίωξας ημάς· εφόνευσας, δεν εφείσθης.
43 Desplegaste la ira, y nos perseguiste; mataste, no perdonaste.
43 “You have covered us with anger and pursued us. You have killed. You have not pitied.
44 Εκάλυψας σεαυτόν με νέφος, διά να μη διαβαίνη η προσευχή ημών.
44 Te cubriste de nube, porque no pasase la oración [nuestra].
44 You have covered yourself with a cloud, so that no prayer can pass through.
45 Μας έκαμες σκύβαλον και βδέλυγμα εν μέσω των λαών.
45 Raedura y abominación nos tornaste en medio de los pueblos.
45 You have made us an off-scouring and refuse in the middle of the peoples.
46 Πάντες οι εχθροί ημών ήνοιξαν το στόμα αυτών εφ' ημάς.
46 Todos nuestros enemigos abrieron sobre nosotros su boca.
46 “All our enemies have opened their mouth wide against us.
47 Φόβος και λάκκος ήλθον εφ' ημάς, ερήμωσις και συντριμμός.
47 Temor y lazo fué para nosotros, asolamiento y quebrantamiento.
47 Terror and the pit have come on us, devastation and destruction.”
48 Ρύακας υδάτων καταβιβάζει ο οφθαλμός μου διά τον συντριμμόν της θυγατρός του λαού μου.
48 Ríos de aguas echan mis ojos, por el quebrantamiento de la hija de mi pueblo.
48 My eye runs down with streams of water, for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
49 Ο οφθαλμός μου σταλάζει και δεν σιωπά, διότι δεν έχει άνεσιν,
49 Mis ojos destilan, y no cesan, porque no hay alivio,
49 My eye pours down and doesn’t cease, without any intermission,
50 Εωσού ο Κύριος διακύψη και ίδη εξ ουρανού.
50 Hasta que Jehová mire y vea desde los cielos.
50 until Yahweh looks down, and sees from heaven.
51 Ο οφθαλμός μου καταθλίβει την ψυχήν μου, εκ πασών των θυγατέρων της πόλεώς μου.
51 Mis ojos contristaron mi alma, por todas las hijas de mi ciudad.
51 My eye affects my soul, because of all the daughters of my city.
52 Οι εχθρευόμενοί με αναιτίως με εκυνήγησαν ακαταπαύστως ως στρουθίον.
52 Mis enemigos me dieron caza como á ave, sin por qué.
52 They have chased me relentlessly like a bird, those who are my enemies without cause.
53 Έκοψαν την ζωήν μου εν τω λάκκω και έρριψαν λίθον επ' εμέ.
53 Ataron mi vida en mazmorra, pusieron piedra sobre mí.
53 They have cut off my life in the dungeon, and have cast a stone on me.
54 Τα ύδατα επλημμύρησαν υπεράνω της κεφαλής μου· είπα, Απερρίφθην.
54 Aguas de avenida vinieron sobre mi cabeza; yo dije: Muerto soy.
54 Waters flowed over my head. I said, “I am cut off.”
55 Επεκαλέσθην το όνομά σου, Κύριε, εκ λάκκου κατωτάτου.
55 Invoqué tu nombre, oh Jehová, desde la cárcel profunda.
55 I called on your name, Yahweh, out of the lowest dungeon.
56 Ήκουσαν την φωνήν μου· μη κλείσης το ωτίον σου εις τον στεναγμόν μου, εις την κραυγήν μου.
56 Oiste mi voz; no escondas tu oído á mi clamor, para mi respiro.
56 You heard my voice: “Don’t hide your ear from my sighing, and my cry.”
57 Επλησίασας καθ' ην ημέραν σε επεκαλέσθην· είπας, Μη φοβού.
57 Acercástete el día que te invoqué: dijiste: No temas.
57 You came near in the day that I called on you. You said, “Don’t be afraid.”
58 Εδίκασας, Κύριε, την δίκην της ψυχής μου· ελύτρωσας την ζωήν μου.
58 Abogaste, Señor, la causa de mi alma; redimiste mi vida.
58 Lord, you have pleaded the causes of my soul. You have redeemed my life.

59 Tú has visto, oh Jehová, mi agravio; defiende mi causa.
59 Yahweh, you have seen my wrong. Judge my cause.

61 You have heard their reproach, Yahweh, and all their plans against me,
62 Τους λόγους των επανισταμένων επ' εμέ και τας μελέτας αυτών κατ' εμού όλην την ημέραν.
62 Los dichos de los que contra mí se levantaron, y su designio contra mí todo el día.
62 the lips of those that rose up against me, and their plots against me all day long.
63 Ιδέ, όταν κάθηνται και όταν σηκόνωνται· εγώ είμαι το άσμα αυτών.
63 Su sentarse, y su levantarse mira: yo soy su canción.
