Greek text · Archambault 1:304–306

Εἰσὶ δὲ οὗτοι· Ὁ θεός, τὸ κρίμα σου τῷ βασιλεῖ δὸς καὶ τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου τῷ υἱῷ τοῦ βασιλέως· κρινεῖ τὸν λαόν σου ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ καὶ τοὺς πτωχούς σου ἐν κρίσει. Ἀναλαβέτωσαν τὰ ὄρη τῷ λαῷ εἰρήνην καὶ οἱ βουνοὶ δικαιοσύνην. Κρινεῖ τοὺς πτωχοὺς τοῦ λαοῦ, καὶ σώσει τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν πενήτων, καὶ ταπεινώσει συκοφάντην· καὶ συμπαραμενεῖ τῷ ἡλίῳ καὶ πρὸ τῆς σελήνης εἰς γενεὰς γενεῶν· καὶ τὰ λοιπὰ ἄχρι τοῦ· Πρὸ τοῦ ἡλίου διαμένει τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ. Καὶ ἐνευλογηθήσονται ἐν αὐτῷ πᾶσαι αἱ φυλαὶ τῆς γῆς· πάντα τὰ ἔθνη μακαριοῦσιν αὐτόν. Εὐλογητὸς κύριος, ὁ θεὸς Ἰσραήλ, ὁ ποιῶν θαυμάσια μόνος, καὶ εὐλογητὸν τὸ ὄνομα τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος· καὶ πληρωθήσεται τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ πᾶσα ἡ γῆ. Γένοιτο, γένοιτο.

English · Claude translation

“They are these: ‘O God, give your judgment to the king, and your righteousness to the king's son; he shall judge your people in righteousness and your poor in judgment. Let the mountains bring peace to the people, and the hills righteousness. He will judge the poor of the people, and save the sons of the needy, and humble the slanderer; and he will endure with the sun and before the moon to generations of generations’; and the rest, until: ‘His name endures before the sun. And all the tribes of the earth shall be blessed in him; all the nations shall call him blessed. Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone does wonderful things, and blessed is the name of his glory to the age of ages; and the whole earth shall be filled with his glory. So be it, so be it.’
