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 «Ψαλμός του Ασάφ.» Ο Θεός των θεών, ο Κύριος ελάλησε, και εκάλεσε την γην, από ανατολής ηλίου έως δύσεως αυτού.
1 Salmo de Asaph. EL Dios de dioses, Jehová, ha hablado, y convocado la tierra desde el nacimiento del sol hasta donde se pone.
1 A Psalm by Asaph. The Mighty One, God, Yahweh, speaks, and calls the earth from sunrise to sunset.
2 Εκ της Σιών, ήτις είναι η εντέλεια της ώραιότητος, έλαμψεν ο Θεός.
2 De Sión, perfección de hermosura, ha Dios resplandecido.
2 Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God shines out.
3 Θέλει ελθεί ο Θεός ημών και δεν θέλει σιωπήσει· πυρ κατατρώγον θέλει είσθαι έμπροσθεν αυτού και πέριξ αυτού σφοδρά ανεμοζάλη,
3 Vendrá nuestro Dios, y no callará: fuego consumirá delante de él, y en derredor suyo habrá tempestad grande.
3 Our God comes, and does not keep silent. A fire devours before him. It is very stormy around him.
4 θέλει προσκαλέσει τους ουρανούς άνωθεν και την γην, διά να κρίνη τον λαόν αυτού.
4 Convocará á los cielos de arriba, y á la tierra, para juzgar á su pueblo.
4 He calls to the heavens above, to the earth, that he may judge his people:
5 Συναθροίσατέ μοι τους οσίους μου, οίτινες έκαμον μετ' εμού συνθήκην επί θυσίας.
5 Juntadme mis santos; los que hicieron conmigo pacto con sacrificio.
5 “Gather my saints together to me, those who have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.”
6 Και οι ουρανοί θέλουσιν αναγγέλλει την δικαιοσύνην αυτού· διότι ο Θεός, αυτός είναι ο Κριτής. Διάψαλμα.
6 Y denunciarán los cielos su justicia; porque Dios es el juez. (Selah.)
6 The heavens shall declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge. Selah.
7 Άκουσον, λαέ μου, και θέλω λαλήσει· Ισραήλ, και θέλω διαμαρτυρήσει κατά σού· Ο Θεός, ο Θεός σου είμαι εγώ.
7 Oye, pueblo mío, y hablaré: [escucha], Israel, y testificaré contra ti: yo soy Dios, el Dios tuyo.
7 “Hear, my people, and I will speak. Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God.
8 Δεν θέλω σε ελέγξει διά τας θυσίας σου, τα δε ολοκαυτώματά σου είναι διαπαντός ενώπιόν μου.
8 No te reprenderé sobre tus sacrificios, ni por tus holocaustos, que delante de mí están siempre.
8 I don’t rebuke you for your sacrifices. Your burnt offerings are continually before me.
9 Δεν θέλω δεχθή εκ του οίκου σου μόσχον, τράγους εκ των ποιμνίων σου.
9 No tomaré de tu casa becerros, ni machos cabríos de tus apriscos.
9 I have no need for a bull from your stall, nor male goats from your pens.
10 Διότι εμού είναι πάντα τα θηρία του δάσους, τα κτήνη τα επί χιλίων ορέων.
10 Porque mía es toda bestia del bosque, y los millares de animales en los collados.
10 For every animal of the forest is mine, and the livestock on a thousand hills.
11 Γνωρίζω πάντα τα πετεινά των ορέων, και τα θηρία του αγρού είναι μετ' εμού.
11 Conozco todas las aves de los montes, y en mi poder están las fieras del campo.
11 I know all the birds of the mountains. The wild animals of the field are mine.
12 Εάν πεινάσω, δεν θέλω ειπεί τούτο προς σέ· διότι εμού είναι η οικουμένη και το πλήρωμα αυτής.
12 Si yo tuviese hambre, no te lo diría á ti: porque mío es el mundo y su plenitud.
12 If I were hungry, I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it.
13 Μήπως εγώ θέλω φάγει κρέας ταύρων ή πίει αίμα τράγων;
13 ¿Tengo de comer yo carne de toros, ó de beber sangre de machos cabríos?
13 Will I eat the meat of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?
14 Θυσίασον εις τον Θεόν θυσίαν αινέσεως, και απόδος εις τον Ύψιστον τας ευχάς σου·
14 Sacrifica á Dios alabanza, y paga tus votos al Altísimo.
14 Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Pay your vows to the Most High.
15 και επικαλού εμέ εν ημέρα θλίψεως, θέλω σε ελευθερώσει, και θέλεις με δοξάσει.
15 E invócame en el día de la angustia: te libraré, y tú me honrarás.
15 Call on me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you, and you will honor me.”
16 Προς δε τον ασεβή είπεν ο Θεός· Τι προς σε, να διηγήσαι τα διατάγματά μου και να αναλαμβάνης την διαθήκην μου εν τω στόματί σου;
16 Pero al malo dijo Dios: ¿Qué tienes tú que enarrar mis leyes, y que tomar mi pacto en tu boca,
16 But to the wicked God says, “What right do you have to declare my statutes, that you have taken my covenant on your lips,
17 Συ δε μισείς παιδείαν και απορρίπτεις οπίσω σου τους λόγους μου.
17 Pues que tú aborreces el castigo, y echas á tu espalda mis palabras?
17 since you hate instruction, and throw my words behind you?
18 Εάν ίδης κλέπτην, τρέχεις μετ' αυτού· και μετά των μοιχών είναι η μερίς σου.
18 Si veías al ladrón, tú corrías con él; y con los adúlteros era tu parte.
18 When you saw a thief, you consented with him, and have participated with adulterers.
19 Παραδίδεις το στόμα σου εις την κακίαν, και η γλώσσα σου περιπλέκει δολιότητα.
19 Tu boca metías en mal, y tu lengua componía engaño.
19 “You give your mouth to evil. Your tongue frames deceit.
20 Καθήμενος λαλείς κατά του αδελφού σου· βάλλεις σκάνδαλον κατά του υιού της μητρός σου.
20 Tomabas asiento, [y] hablabas contra tu hermano; contra el hijo de tu madre ponías infamia.
20 You sit and speak against your brother. You slander your own mother’s son.
21 Ταύτα έπραξας, και εσιώπησα· υπέλαβες ότι είμαι τω όντι όμοιός σου· θέλω σε ελέγξει, και θέλω παραστήσει πάντα έμπροσθεν των οφθαλμών σου.
21 Estas cosas hiciste, y yo he callado: pensabas que de cierto sería yo como tú: yo te argüiré, y pondré[las] delante de tus ojos.
21 You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that I was just like you. I will rebuke you, and accuse you in front of your eyes.
22 Θέσατε λοιπόν τούτο εις τον νούν σας, οι λησμονούντες τον Θεόν, μήποτε σας αρπάσω, και ουδείς ο λυτρώσων.
22 Entended ahora esto, los que os olvidáis de Dios; no sea que arrebate, sin que nadie libre.
22 “Now consider this, you who forget God, lest I tear you into pieces, and there be no one to deliver.
23 Ο προσφέρων θυσίαν αινέσεως, ούτος με δοξάζει· και εις τον ευθετούντα την οδόν αυτού θέλω δείξει την σωτηρίαν του Θεού.
23 El que sacrifica alabanza me honrará: y al que ordenare su camino, le mostraré la salud de Dios.
23 Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me, and prepares his way so that I will show God’s salvation to him.”

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).
"Hear ye these things, all ye nations" (ver. 1). Not then you only who are here. For of what power is our voice so to cry out, as that all nations may hear?

Of whom He again speaks: "The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken, and hath called the earth." Who is meant by God?
And regarding the name itself, if they see fit to call such blessed and immortal creatures gods, this need not give rise to any serious discussion between us, since in our own Scriptures we read, "The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken;" and again, "Confess to the God of gods;" and again, "He is a great King above all …

And this He saith unto them in irony; as when He said, "Behold, Adam is become as one of us;" and again, "If I were hungry, I would not tell thee." For that no man on earth was righteous, Paul declared, saying, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." And by this too the others …
