Psalms 59

Berean Standard Bible

Clementine Vulgate, 1598

1Deliver me from my enemies, O my God; protect me from those who rise against me.

1In finem, pro his qui immutabuntur, in tituli inscriptionem ipsi David, in doctrinam,

2Deliver me from workers of iniquity, and save me from men of bloodshed.

2cum succendit Mesopotamiam Syriæ et Sobal, et convertit Joab, et percussit Idumæam in valle Salinarum duodecim millia.

3See how they lie in wait for me. Fierce men conspire against me for no transgression or sin of my own, O LORD.

3[Deus, repulisti nos, et destruxisti nos; iratus es, et misertus es nobis.

4For no fault of my own, they move swiftly to attack me. Arise to help me, and take notice.

4Commovisti terram, et conturbasti eam; sana contritiones ejus, quia commota est.

5O LORD God of Hosts, the God of Israel, rouse Yourself to punish all the nations; show no mercy to the wicked traitors. Selah

5Ostendisti populo tuo dura; potasti nos vino compunctionis.

6They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.

6Dedisti metuentibus te significationem, ut fugiant a facie arcus; ut liberentur dilecti tui.

7See what they spew from their mouths— sharp words from their lips: “For who can hear us?”

7Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.

8But You, O LORD, laugh at them; You scoff at all the nations.

8Deus locutus est in sancto suo: lætabor, et partibor Sichimam; et convallem tabernaculorum metibor.

9I will keep watch for You, O my strength, because You, O God, are my fortress.

9Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses; et Ephraim fortitudo capitis mei. Juda rex meus;

10My God of loving devotion will come to meet me; God will let me stare down my foes.

10Moab olla spei meæ. In Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum: mihi alienigenæ subditi sunt.

11Do not kill them, or my people will forget. Scatter them by Your power, and bring them down, O Lord, our shield.

11Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam?

12By the sins of their mouths and the words of their lips, let them be trapped in their pride, in the curses and lies they utter.

12nonne tu, Deus, qui repulisti nos? et non egredieris, Deus, in virtutibus nostris?

13Consume them in wrath; consume them till they are no more, so it may be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob. Selah

13Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione, quia vana salus hominis.

14They return in the evening, snarling like dogs and prowling around the city.

14In Deo faciemus virtutem; et ipse ad nihilum deducet tribulantes nos.]

15They scavenge for food, and growl if they are not satisfied.
