Psalms 21
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1(21-1) For the Leader. A Psalm of David. (21-2) O LORD, in Thy strength the king rejoiceth; and in Thy salvation how greatly doth he exult!
1In finem, pro susceptione matutina. Psalmus David.
2(21-3) Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and the request of his lips Thou hast not withholden. Selah
2[Deus, Deus meus, respice in me: quare me dereliquisti? longe a salute mea verba delictorum meorum.
3(21-4) For Thou meetest him with choicest blessings; Thou settest a crown of fine gold on his head.
3Deus meus, clamabo per diem, et non exaudies; et nocte, et non ad insipientiam mihi.
4(21-5) He asked life of Thee, Thou gavest it him; even length of days for ever and ever.
4Tu autem in sancto habitas, laus Israël.
5(21-6) His glory is great through Thy salvation; honour and majesty dost Thou lay upon him.
5In te speraverunt patres nostri; speraverunt, et liberasti eos.
6(21-7) For Thou makest him most blessed for ever; Thou makest him glad with joy in Thy presence.
6Ad te clamaverunt, et salvi facti sunt; in te speraverunt, et non sunt confusi.
7(21-8) For the king trusteth in the LORD, yea, in the mercy of the Most High; he shall not be moved.
7Ego autem sum vermis, et non homo; opprobrium hominum, et abjectio plebis.
8(21-9) Thy hand shall be equal to all thine enemies; thy right hand shall overtake those that hate thee.
8Omnes videntes me deriserunt me; locuti sunt labiis, et moverunt caput.
9(21-10) Thou shalt make them as a fiery furnace in the time of thine anger; the LORD shall swallow them up in His wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
9Speravit in Domino, eripiat eum: salvum faciat eum, quoniam vult eum.
10(21-11) Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
10Quoniam tu es qui extraxisti me de ventre, spes mea ab uberibus matris meæ.
11(21-12) For they intended evil against thee, they imagined a device, wherewith they shall not prevail.
11In te projectus sum ex utero; de ventre matris meæ Deus meus es tu:
12(21-13) For thou shalt make them turn their back, thou shalt make ready with thy bowstrings against the face of them.
12ne discesseris a me, quoniam tribulatio proxima est, quoniam non est qui adjuvet.
13(21-14) Be Thou exalted, O LORD, in Thy strength; so will we sing and praise Thy power.
13Circumdederunt me vituli multi; tauri pingues obsederunt me.
