#29 τῶν δύο ὁδῶν (Ψαλμοῦ α᾽)

χαίρετε πάντες! We are continuing the theme of the last few episodes on poetry, each week chatting about a different short piece. This week we are talking about the 1st of the Psalms from the LXX Greek translation of the Hebrew bible. See below for a link to the text. We recite the Psalm at 3:57-5:52 if you want to read along. Enjoy the show! Josep & Leandros The Two Paths: ΜΑΚΑΡΙΟΣ ἀνὴρ ὃς οὐκ ἐπορεύθη ἐν βουλῇ ἀσεβῶν, καὶ ἐν ὁδῷ ἁμαρτωλῶν οὐκ ἔστη, καὶ ἐπὶ καθέδραν λοιμῶν οὐκ ἐκάθισεν· ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ Κυρίου τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ αὐτοῦ μελετήσει ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτός. καὶ ἔσται ὡς τὸ ξύλον τὸ πεφυτευμένον παρὰ τὰς διεξόδους τῶν ὑδάτων, ὃ τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῦ δώσει ἐν καιρῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὸ φύλλον αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀπορρυήσεται· καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἂν ποιῇ κατευοδωθήσεται. οὐχ οὕτως οἱ ἀσεβεῖς, οὐχ οὕτως, ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ὡς ὁ χνοῦς ὃν ἐκριπτεῖ ὁ ἄνεμος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς γῆς. διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἀναστήσονται οἱ ἀσεβεῖς ἐν κρίσει, οὐδὲ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἐν βουλῇ δικαίων· ὅτι γινώσκει Κύριος ὁδὸν δικαίων, καὶ ὁδὸς ἀσεβῶν ἀπολεῖται. https://biblehub.com/sepd/psalms/1.htm     Support the podcast and get access to episodes in advance: https://www.patreon.com/Hellenizdein?fan_landing=true&view_as=public Follow us ον Twitter: https://twitter.com/ancientgreekpod Join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/604916774052809 Follow us on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ancientgreekpodcast/ Write to us personally at: [email protected]
