Greek text · Archambault 1:356
Καὶ ἀπεκρινάμην· Διὰ λέξεως, ἣν τὸ ἅγιον πνεῦμα ἐν τούτῳ τῷ ψαλμῷ ἀνεφθέγξατο, νοήσατε λέγοντος μου, παρακαλῶ, καὶ γνώσεσθε οὔτε κακῶς με λέγειν οὐθʼ ὑμᾶς ὄντως κεκηλῆσθαι· οὕτως γὰρ ἂν καὶ πολλὰ ἄλλα νοῆσαι τῶν ὑπὸ τοῦ ἁγίου πνεύματος εἰρημένων καθʼ ἑαυτοὺς γενόμενοι δυνήσεσθε. Ἄισατε τῷ κυρίῳ ᾆσμα καινόν, ᾄσατε τῷ κυρίῳ πᾶσα ἡ γῆ. Ἄισατε τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ εὐλογήσατε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ· εὐαγγελίζεσθε ἡμέραν ἐξ ἡμέρας τὸ σωτήριον αὐτοῦ, ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς λαοῖς τὰ θαυμάσια αὐτοῦ.
English · Claude translation
And I answered, “Understand, please, as I speak, from the wording which the Holy Spirit uttered in this psalm, and you will know that I do not speak wrongly and that you are not truly bewitched; for in this way you will be able, when you are by yourselves, to understand many other things spoken by the Holy Spirit. ‘Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord and bless his name; proclaim the good news of his salvation from day to day, his wonders among all the peoples.’
