Psalm 91 (Septuagint) = Psalm 92 (KJV)
Introduction
This entry meets the strict three-criteria standard of the Theosis Library, with the manuscript text drawn directly from the same source as the scan:
- Manuscript scan: The actual folio of Codex Sinaiticus containing this passage, from the Codex Sinaiticus Project (codexsinaiticus.org). Library folio reference: 113.
- Original text: The verbatim transcription of the Sinaiticus manuscript from the Codex Sinaiticus Project, preserving uncial forms, lunate sigma, nomina sacra (e.g. ⟨θϲ⟩ = θεός), and scribal marks. Nomina sacra are shown in angle brackets to indicate the manuscript's sacred-name abbreviations.
- English translation: The King James Version (1611), retrieved verbatim from the public-domain bible-api.com endpoint.
Numbering: Codex Sinaiticus follows the Septuagint Psalter, in which this is Psalm 91. In the Hebrew and King James numbering the same psalm is Psalm 92. Greek verse numbers follow the Septuagint, which counts the superscription as verse 1; English verse numbers follow the KJV, so they run 1 behind the Greek. The Greek and English in each section are the same words of the same psalm.

1ψαλμοϲ ωδηϲ ειϲ την ημεραν του προϲαββατου 2αγαθον το εξομολογειϲθαι τω κω και ψαλλειν τω ονοματι ϲου υψιϲτε 3του αναγγελλειν το πρωϊ το ελεοϲ ϲου και την αληθειαν ϲου κατα νυκτα 4εν δεκαχορδω ψαλτηριω μετα ωδηϲ εν κιθαρα 5οτι ευφραναϲ με κε εν τω ποιηματι ϲου και εν τοιϲ εργοιϲ των χειρων ϲου αγαλλιαϲομαι
1It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: 2To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night, 3Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound. 4For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
6ωϲ εμεγαλυνθη τα εργα ϲου κε ϲφοδρα εβαρυνθηϲαν οι διαλογιϲμοι ϲου 7ανηρ αφρων ου γνωϲεται και αϲυνετοϲ ου ϲυνηϲει ταυτα 8εν τω ανατειλαι τουϲ αμαρτωλουϲ ωϲει χορτον και διεκυψαν παντεϲ οι εργαζομενοι την ανομιαν οπωϲ αν εξολεθρευθωϲιν ειϲ τον αιωνα του αιωνοϲ 9ϲυ δε ϋψιϲτοϲ ειϲ τον αιωνα κε 10οτι ϊδου οι εχθροι ϲου κε οτι ϊδου οι εχθροι ϲου απολουνται και διαϲκορπιϲθηϲονται παντεϲ οι εργαζομενοι την ανομιαν
5O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep. 6A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this. 7When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever: 8But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore. 9For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
11και ϋψωθηϲεται ωϲ μονοκερωτοϲ το κεραϲ μου και το γηραϲ μου εν ελαιω πιονι 12και επειδεν ο οφθαλμοϲ μου εν τοιϲ εχθροιϲ μου και εν τοιϲ επανιϲτανομενοιϲ επ εμε πονηρευομενοιϲ ειϲακουϲεται το ουϲ μου 13δικαιοϲ ωϲ φοινιξ ανθηϲει ωϲ η κεδροϲ η εν τω λιβανω πληθυνθηϲεται 14πεφυτευμενοι εν τω οικω κυ εν ταιϲ αυλαιϲ του θυ ημων εξανθηϲουϲι 15πληθυνθηϲονται εν γηρει πιονι και ευπαθουντεϲ εϲονται
10But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil. 11Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me. 12The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. 13Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God. 14They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;
16του αναγγειλαι οτι ευθηϲ κϲ ο θϲ ημω και ουκ εϲτιν αδικια εν αυτω
15To shew that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
