Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Unto the end, for them that shall be changed, for the inscription of a title, to David himself, for doctrine,
1In finem, pro his qui immutabuntur, in tituli inscriptionem ipsi David, in doctrinam,
2When he set fire to Mesopotamia of Syria and Sobal and Joab returned and slew of Edom, in the vale of the saltpits, twelve thousand men.
2cum succendit Mesopotamiam Syriæ et Sobal, et convertit Joab, et percussit Idumæam in valle Salinarum duodecim millia.
3O God, thou hast cast us off, and hast destroyed us; thou hast been angry, and hast had mercy on us.
3[Deus, repulisti nos, et destruxisti nos; iratus es, et misertus es nobis.
4Thou hast moved the earth, and hast troubled it: heal thou the breaches thereof, for it has been moved.
4Commovisti terram, et conturbasti eam; sana contritiones ejus, quia commota est.
5Thou hast shewn thy people hard things; thou hast made us drink wine of sorrow.
5Ostendisti populo tuo dura; potasti nos vino compunctionis.
6Thou hast given a warning to them that fear thee: that they may flee from before the bow: That thy beloved may be delivered.
6Dedisti metuentibus te significationem, ut fugiant a facie arcus; ut liberentur dilecti tui.
7Save me with thy right hand, and hear me.
7Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.
8God hath spoken in his holy place: I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem; and will mete out the vale of tabernacles.
8Deus locutus est in sancto suo: lætabor, et partibor Sichimam; et convallem tabernaculorum metibor.
9Galaad is mine, and Manasses is mine: and Ephraim is the strength of my head. Juda is my king:
9Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses; et Ephraim fortitudo capitis mei. Juda rex meus;
10Moab is the pot of my hope. Into Edom will I stretch out my shoe: to me the foreigners are made subject.
10Moab olla spei meæ. In Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum: mihi alienigenæ subditi sunt.
11Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
11Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam?
12Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go out with our armies?
12nonne tu, Deus, qui repulisti nos? et non egredieris, Deus, in virtutibus nostris?
13Give us help from trouble: for vain is the salvation of man.
13Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione, quia vana salus hominis.
14Through God we shall do mightily: and he shall bring to nothing them that afflict us.
14In Deo faciemus virtutem; et ipse ad nihilum deducet tribulantes nos.]
