Berean Standard Bible
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Why have You rejected us forever, O God? Why does Your anger smolder against the sheep of Your pasture?
1In finem, ne corrumpas. Psalmus cantici Asaph.
2Remember Your congregation, which You purchased long ago and redeemed as the tribe of Your inheritance— Mount Zion where You dwell.
2[Confitebimur tibi, Deus, confitebimur, et invocabimus nomen tuum; narrabimus mirabilia tua.
3Turn Your steps to the everlasting ruins, to everything in the sanctuary the enemy has destroyed.
3Cum accepero tempus, ego justitias judicabo.
4Your foes have roared within Your meeting place; they have unfurled their banners as signs,
4Liquefacta est terra et omnes qui habitant in ea: ego confirmavi columnas ejus.
5like men wielding axes in a thicket of trees
5Dixi iniquis: Nolite inique agere: et delinquentibus: Nolite exaltare cornu:
6and smashing all the carvings with hatchets and picks.
6nolite extollere in altum cornu vestrum; nolite loqui adversus Deum iniquitatem.
7They have burned Your sanctuary to the ground; they have defiled the dwelling place of Your Name.
7Quia neque ab oriente, neque ab occidente, neque a desertis montibus:
8They said in their hearts, “We will crush them completely.” They burned down every place where God met us in the land.
8quoniam Deus judex est. Hunc humiliat, et hunc exaltat:
9There are no signs for us to see. There is no longer any prophet. And none of us knows how long this will last.
9quia calix in manu Domini vini meri, plenus misto. Et inclinavit ex hoc in hoc; verumtamen fæx ejus non est exinanita: bibent omnes peccatores terræ.
10How long, O God, will the enemy taunt You? Will the foe revile Your name forever?
10Ego autem annuntiabo in sæculum; cantabo Deo Jacob:
11Why do You withdraw Your strong right hand? Stretch it out to destroy them!
11et omnia cornua peccatorum confringam, et exaltabuntur cornua justi.]
12Yet God is my King from ancient times, working salvation on the earth.
