Notes on this text (3)
- Greek and Latin Bibles number most Psalms one lower than Hebrew and English Bibles.
- The Old Testament is translated from the Hebrew, not from the Septuagint read in the Orthodox Church; there are no deuterocanonical books.
- Katharevousa (learned 19th-century Greek), as in the CrossWire module (text from theword.gr).

1 Αινείτε τον Κύριον. Αινείτε το όνομα του Κυρίου· αινείτε, δούλοι του Κυρίου,
1 Aleluya. ALABAD el nombre de Jehová; alabad[le], siervos de Jehová;
1 Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh’s name! Praise him, you servants of Yahweh,
2 Οι ιστάμενοι εν τω οίκω του Κυρίου, εν ταις αυλαίς του οίκου του Θεού ημών.
2 Los que estáis en la casa de Jehová, en los atrios de la casa de nuestro Dios.
2 you who stand in Yahweh’s house, in the courts of our God’s house.
3 Αινείτε τον Κύριον, διότι αγαθός ο Κύριος· ψαλμωδήσατε εις το όνομα αυτού, διότι είναι τερπνόν.
3 Alabad á JAH, porque es bueno Jehová: cantad salmos á su nombre, porque es suave.
3 Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant.
4 Διότι τον Ιακώβ εξέλεξεν εις εαυτόν ο Κύριος, τον Ισραήλ εις θησαυρόν αυτού.
4 Porque JAH ha escogido á Jacob para sí, á Israel por posesión suya.
4 For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession.

5 Porque yo se que Jehová es grande, y el Señor nuestro, mayor que todos los dioses.
5 For I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all gods.
6 Πάντα όσα ηθέλησεν ο Κύριος εποίησεν, εν τω ουρανώ και εν τη γη, εν ταις θαλάσσαις και εν πάσαις ταις αβύσσοις.
6 Todo lo que quiso Jehová, ha hecho en los cielos y en la tierra, en las mares y en todos los abismos.
6 Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps.
7 Αναβιβάζει νεφέλας από των εσχάτων της γής· κάμνει αστραπάς διά βροχήν· εκβάλλει ανέμους εκ των θησαυρών αυτού.
7 El hace subir las nubes del cabo de la tierra; él hizo los relámpagos para la lluvia; él saca los vientos de sus tesoros.
7 He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings with the rain. He brings the wind out of his treasuries.
8 Όστις επάταξε τα πρωτότοκα της Αιγύπτου, από ανθρώπου έως κτήνους·
8 El [es el] que hirió los primogénitos de Egipto, desde el hombre hasta la bestia.
8 He struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal.
9 εξαπέστειλε σημεία και τέρατα εις το μέσον σου, Αίγυπτε, επί τον Φαραώ και επί πάντας τους δούλους αυτού.

9 He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.
10 Όστις επάταξεν έθνη μεγάλα και απέκτεινε βασιλείς κραταιούς·
10 El que hirió muchas gentes, y mató reyes poderosos:
10 He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings—
11 τον Σηών, βασιλέα των Αμορραίων, και τον Ωγ, βασιλέα της Βασάν, και πάσας τας βασιλείας Χαναάν·
11 A Sehón rey Amorrheo, y á Og rey de Basán, y á todos los reinos de Canaán.
11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan—
12 και έδωκε την γην αυτών κληρονομίαν, κληρονομίαν εις τον Ισραήλ τον λαόν αυτού.
12 Y dió la tierra de ellos en heredad, en heredad á Israel su pueblo.
12 and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people.
13 Το όνομά σου, Κύριε, μένει εις τον αιώνα· το μνημόσυνόν σου, Κύριε, εις γενεάν και γενεάν.
13 Oh Jehová, eterno [es] tu nombre; tu memoria, oh Jehová para generación y generación.
13 Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, throughout all generations.
14 Διότι θέλει κρίνει ο Κύριος τον λαόν αυτού· και τους δούλους αυτού θέλει ελεήσει.
14 Porque juzgará Jehová su pueblo, y arrepentiráse sobre sus siervos.
14 For Yahweh will judge his people and have compassion on his servants.
15 Τα είδωλα των εθνών είναι αργύριον και χρυσίον, έργον χειρών ανθρώπου.
15 Los ídolos de las gentes son plata y oro, obra de manos de hombres.
15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
16 Στόμα έχουσι και δεν λαλούσιν· οφθαλμούς έχουσι και δεν βλέπουσιν.
16 Tienen boca, y no hablan; tienen ojos, y no ven;
16 They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see.
17 Ώτα έχουσι και δεν ακούουσιν· ουδέ είναι πνοή εν τω στόματι αυτών.
17 Tienen orejas, y no oyen; tampoco hay espíritu en sus bocas.
17 They have ears, but they can’t hear, neither is there any breath in their mouths.
18 Όμοιοι αυτών ας γείνωσιν οι ποιούντες αυτά· πας ο ελπίζων επ' αυτά
18 Como ellos son los que los hacen; todos los que en ellos confían.
18 Those who make them will be like them, yes, everyone who trusts in them.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
(ver. 1), "who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God" (ver. 2). Why has he added, "in the courts"? Courts mean the wider spaces of a house. He who stands in the courts is not straitened, is not confined, in some fashion is enlarged.

Lo, the whole world crieth out in the Church of God, "I know that the Lord is great." Yet doubtless there are but few who are saved.

For so many measures of waters lie upon the clouds, yet they are not rent: but come down with all good order upon the earth. Who bringeth the winds out of their treasuries?

For whatsoever the Lord pleased that did He in heaven and in earth, and no one resisted His will.

… with how great assurance will the purified mass, standing at the Right Hand, fearing now for itself the admixture of no evil men, nor the loss of any of the good, now about to reign with Christ, say, "I know that the Lord is great"!
