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 «Εις τον πρώτον μουσικόν, επί Γιττίθ. Ψαλμός του Ασάφ.» Ψάλατε εν ευφροσύνη εις τον Θεόν, την δύναμιν ημών· αλαλάξατε εις τον Θεόν του Ιακώβ.
1 Al Músico principal: sobre Gittith: Salmo de Asaph. CANTAD á Dios, fortaleza nuestra: al Dios de Jacob celebrad con júbilo.
1 For the Chief Musician. On an instrument of Gath. By Asaph. Sing aloud to God, our strength! Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob!
2 Υψώσατε ψαλμωδίαν και κρούετε τύμπανον, κιθάραν τερπνήν μετά ψαλτηρίου.
2 Tomad la canción, y tañed el adufe, el arpa deliciosa con el salterio.
2 Raise a song, and bring here the tambourine, the pleasant lyre with the harp.
3 Σαλπίσατε σάλπιγγα εν νεομηνία, εν καιρώ ωρισμένω, εν τη ημέρα της εορτής ημών.
3 Tocad la trompeta en la nueva luna, en el día señalado, en el día de nuestra solemnidad.
3 Blow the trumpet at the New Moon, at the full moon, on our feast day.
4 Διότι πρόσταγμα είναι τούτο εις τον Ισραήλ, νόμος του Θεού του Ιακώβ.
4 Porque estatuto es de Israel, ordenanza del Dios de Jacob.
4 For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5 Εις μαρτύριον διέταξε τούτο εις τον Ιωσήφ, ότε εξήλθε κατά της γης Αιγύπτου· όπου ήκουσα γλώσσαν, την οποίαν δεν εγνώριζον·
5 Por testimonio en José lo ha constituído, cuando salió por la tierra de Egipto; [donde] oí lenguaje que no entendía.
5 He appointed it in Joseph for a covenant, when he went out over the land of Egypt, I heard a language that I didn’t know.
6 απεμάκρυνα από του φορτίου τον ώμον αυτού· αι χείρες αυτού έπαυσαν από κοφίνου·
6 Aparté su hombro de debajo de la carga; sus manos se quitaron de vasijas de barro.
6 “I removed his shoulder from the burden. His hands were freed from the basket.
7 εν καιρώ θλίψεως επεκαλέσθης, και σε ελύτρωσα· σοι απεκρίθην· από του αποκρύφου τόπου της βροντής· σε εδοκίμασα εν τοις ύδασι της αντιλογίας. Διάψαλμα.
7 En la calamidad clamaste, y yo te libré: te respondí en el secreto del trueno; te probé sobre las aguas de Meriba. (Selah.)
7 You called in trouble, and I delivered you. I answered you in the secret place of thunder. I tested you at the waters of Meribah.” Selah.
8 Άκουσον, λαέ μου, και θέλω διαμαρτυρηθή κατά σού· Ισραήλ, εάν μου ακούσης,
8 Oye, pueblo mío, y te protestaré. Israel, si me oyeres,
8 “Hear, my people, and I will testify to you, Israel, if you would listen to me!
9 Ας μη ήναι εις σε θεός ξένος, και μη προσκυνήσης θεόν αλλότριον.
9 No habrá en ti dios ajeno, ni te encorvarás á dios extraño.
9 There shall be no strange god in you, neither shall you worship any foreign god.
10 Εγώ είμαι Κύριος ο Θεός σου, όστις σε ανήγαγεν εκ γης Αιγύπτου· πλάτυνον το στόμα σου, και θέλω γεμίσει αυτό.
10 Yo soy Jehová tu Dios, que te hice subir de la tierra de Egipto: ensancha tu boca, y henchirla he.
10 I am Yahweh, your God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 Αλλ' ο λαός μου δεν ήκουσε της φωνής μου, και ο Ισραήλ δεν επρόσεξεν εις εμέ.
11 Mas mi pueblo no oyó mi voz, é Israel no me quiso á mí.
11 But my people didn’t listen to my voice. Israel desired none of me.
12 Διά τούτο παρέδωκα αυτούς εις τας επιθυμίας της καρδίας αυτών· και περιεπάτησαν εν ταις βουλαίς αυτών.
12 Dejélos por tanto á la dureza de su corazón: caminaron en sus consejos.
12 So I let them go after the stubbornness of their hearts, that they might walk in their own counsels.
13 Είθε να μου ήκουεν ο λαός μου, και ο Ισραήλ να περιεπάτει εις τας οδούς μου·
13 ¡Oh, si me hubiera oído mi pueblo, si en mis caminos hubiera Israel andado!
13 Oh that my people would listen to me, that Israel would walk in my ways!
14 πάραυτα ήθελον καταβάλει τους εχθρούς αυτών, και κατά των θλιβόντων αυτούς ήθελον στρέψει την χείρα μου.
14 En una nada habría yo derribado sus enemigos, y vuelto mi mano sobre sus adversarios.
14 I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn my hand against their adversaries.
15 Οι μισούντες τον Κύριον ήθελον αποτύχει εναντίον αυτού, ο δε καιρός εκείνων ήθελε διαμένει πάντοτε·
15 Los aborrecedores de Jehová se le hubieran sometido; y el tiempo de ellos fuera para siempre.
15 The haters of Yahweh would cringe before him, and their punishment would last forever.
16 και ήθελε θρέψει αυτούς με το πάχος του σίτου, και με μέλι εκ πέτρας ήθελον σε χορτάσει.
16 [Y Dios] lo hubiera mantenido de grosura de trigo: y de miel de la piedra te hubiera saciado.
16 But he would have also fed them with the finest of the wheat. I will satisfy you with honey out of the rock.”

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).
If perchance things obscure demand the office of an interpreter, those things which are evident ought to require of me the office of a reader. The song here is of the Advent of the Lord and of our Saviour Jesus Christ, and of His vineyard.
