130ΨΑΛΜΟΙPSALMS (Brenton-Septuagint)Reference
1Ὠιδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν· τῷ Δαυιδ.

Κύριε, οὐχ ὑψώθη μου ἡ καρδία,
οὐδὲ ἐμετεωρίσθησαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου·
οὐδὲ ἐπορεύθην ἐν μεγάλοις
οὐδὲ ἐν θαυμασίοις ὑπὲρ ἐμέ.

 O Lord my heart is not exalted neither have mine eyes been [haughtily] raised: neither have I exercised myself in great [matters] nor in things too wonderful for me.Brotherly Love. Psalm 131(v130)
2εἰ μὴ ἐταπεινοφρόνουν,
ἀλλὰ ὕψωσα τὴν ψυχήν μου,
ὡς τὸ ἀπογεγαλακτισμένον ἐπὶ τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ,
ὡς ἀνταπόδοσις ἐπὶ τὴν ψυχήν μου.
 [I shall have sinned] if I have not been humble but have exulted my soul: according to [the relation of] a weaned child to his mother so wilt thou recompense my soul. 
3ἐλπισάτω Ισραηλ ἐπὶ τὸν κύριον
ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν καὶ ἕως τοῦ αἰῶνος.
 Let Israel hope in the Lord from henceforth and for ever. 
    << | Psalms: 130 | >>  
Notes:The Old Testament in Greek is Rahlf's LXX available in Word format at the Tyndale website, adapted to database format.
The alternative readings of the LXX - Judges (Alexandrinus), Daniel, Susanna & Bel (LXX received text), and Tobit (Sinaiticus [not printed in Swete]) as separate book references so that they can be viewed as an alternative text in parallel with the primary text.
(I have reversed the Swete presentation for Daniel, Susanna, Bel by listing in the later Theodotion LXX text as the main text.)
The LXX cross references to the Hebrew Bible have been extensively revised using those set out in Swete's 'Old Testament in Greek' publications between 1894 and 1909, amended in part to agree with verses as printed in the Biblia Hebraica 1937 publication).
Some verse cross references in Swete's had to be amended to agree with the BHS verse numbering, and there may well be some mismatches that I haven't yet picked up on. (If you find any errors please e-mail me.)
Hebrew Bible has been adapted from the BHS in Word format at Tyndale.
The Septuagint in English ( translated by Sir Lancelot CL Brenton) - is used here only for the books of the Hebrew Bible.
The Revised Standard Version: This generally follows the Hebrew Bible for the canonical OT so I have included the RSV Aprocrypha for the Greek books not covered by Brenton.
Ecclesiasticus - Sirach Chs.30-36: The text of these chapters from 30.24 to 36.16, is disordered.
I have followed Swete's verse numbering for the greek text.
Also, the RSV verse numbering differs from the NRSV.
The NRSV appears to have followed Swete's numbering here, so I have re-ordered the RSV to agree with both the NRSV & Swete for these chapters.
