Dialogue with Trypho 37.1 · Sophia Scriptura

Greek text · Archambault 1:166

Καὶ ἐν διαψάλματι τεσσαρακοστοῦ ἕκτου ψαλμοῦ, ἔφην, εἰς τὸν Χριστὸν οὕτως εἴρηται· Ἀνέβη ὁ θεὸς ἐν ἀλαλαγμῷ, κύριος ἐν φωνῇ σάλπιγγος. Ψάλατε τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν, ψάλατε, ψάλατε τῷ βασιλεῖ ἡμῶν, ψάλατε. Ὅτι βασιλεὺς πάσης τῆς γῆς ὁ θεός, ψάλατε συνετῶς. Ἐβασίλευσεν ὁ θεὸς ἐπὶ τὰ ἔθνη, ὁ θεὸς κάθηται ἐπὶ θρόνου ἁγίου αὐτοῦ. Ἄρχοντες λαῶν συνήχθησαν μετὰ τοῦ θεοῦ Ἀβραάμ, ὅτι τοῦ θεοῦ οἱ κραταιοὶ τῆς γῆς σφόδρα ἐπήρθησαν.

English · Claude translation

“And in the diapsalm of the forty-sixth psalm,” I said, “it is said of Christ thus: ‘God has gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet. Sing to our God, sing; sing to our King, sing. For God is King of all the earth; sing with understanding. God has reigned over the nations; God sits on his holy throne. The rulers of the peoples have gathered with the God of Abraham, for the mighty ones of the earth belong to God; they were greatly exalted.’
