Psalms 44
King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.
1In finem, pro iis qui commutabuntur. Filiis Core, ad intellectum. Canticum pro dilecto.
2How thou didst drive out the heathen with thy hand, and plantedst them; how thou didst afflict the people, and cast them out.
2[Eructavit cor meum verbum bonum: dico ego opera mea regi. Lingua mea calamus scribæ velociter scribentis.
3For they got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them.
3Speciosus forma præ filiis hominum, diffusa est gratia in labiis tuis: propterea benedixit te Deus in æternum.
4Thou art my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob.
4Accingere gladio tuo super femur tuum, potentissime.
5Through thee will we push down our enemies: through thy name will we tread them under that rise up against us.
5Specie tua et pulchritudine tua intende, prospere procede, et regna, propter veritatem, et mansuetudinem, et justitiam; et deducet te mirabiliter dextera tua.
6For I will not trust in my bow, neither shall my sword save me.
6Sagittæ tuæ acutæ: populi sub te cadent, in corda inimicorum regis.
7But thou hast saved us from our enemies, and hast put them to shame that hated us.
7Sedes tua, Deus, in sæculum sæculi; virga directionis virga regni tui.
8In God we boast all the day long, and praise thy name for ever. Selah.
8Dilexisti justitiam, et odisti iniquitatem; propterea unxit te Deus, Deus tuus, oleo lætitiæ, præ consortibus tuis.
9But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
9Myrrha, et gutta, et casia a vestimentis tuis, a domibus eburneis; ex quibus delectaverunt te
10Thou makest us to turn back from the enemy: and they which hate us spoil for themselves.
10filiæ regum in honore tuo. Astitit regina a dextris tuis in vestitu deaurato, circumdata varietate.
11Thou hast given us like sheep appointed for meat; and hast scattered us among the heathen.
11Audi, filia, et vide, et inclina aurem tuam; et obliviscere populum tuum, et domum patris tui.
12Thou sellest thy people for nought, and dost not increase thy wealth by their price.
12Et concupiscet rex decorem tuum, quoniam ipse est Dominus Deus tuus, et adorabunt eum.
13Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us.
13Et filiæ Tyri in muneribus vultum tuum deprecabuntur; omnes divites plebis.
14Thou makest us a byword among the heathen, a shaking of the head among the people.
14Omnis gloria ejus filiæ regis ab intus, in fimbriis aureis,
15My confusion is continually before me, and the shame of my face hath covered me,
15circumamicta varietatibus. Adducentur regi virgines post eam; proximæ ejus afferentur tibi.
16For the voice of him that reproacheth and blasphemeth; by reason of the enemy and avenger.
16Afferentur in lætitia et exsultatione; adducentur in templum regis.
17All this is come upon us; yet have we not forgotten thee, neither have we dealt falsely in thy covenant.
17Pro patribus tuis nati sunt tibi filii; constitues eos principes super omnem terram.
18Our heart is not turned back, neither have our steps declined from thy way;
18Memores erunt nominis tui in omni generatione et generationem: propterea populi confitebuntur tibi in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi.]
19Though thou hast sore broken us in the place of dragons, and covered us with the shadow of death.
