King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
1Intellectus Asaph. [Ut quid, Deus, repulisti in finem, iratus est furor tuus super oves pascuæ tuæ?
2But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well nigh slipped.
2Memor esto congregationis tuæ, quam possedisti ab initio. Redemisti virgam hæreditatis tuæ, mons Sion, in quo habitasti in eo.
3For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
3Leva manus tuas in superbias eorum in finem: quanta malignatus est inimicus in sancto !
4For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
4Et gloriati sunt qui oderunt te in medio solemnitatis tuæ; posuerunt signa sua, signa:
5They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
5et non cognoverunt sicut in exitu super summum. Quasi in silva lignorum securibus
6Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
6exciderunt januas ejus in idipsum; in securi et ascia dejecerunt eam.
7Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
7Incenderunt igni sanctuarium tuum; in terra polluerunt tabernaculum nominis tui.
8They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
8Dixerunt in corde suo cognatio eorum simul: Quiescere faciamus omnes dies festos Dei a terra.
9They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
9Signa nostra non vidimus; jam non est propheta; et nos non cognoscet amplius.
10Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
10Usquequo, Deus, improperabit inimicus? irritat adversarius nomen tuum in finem?
11And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
11Ut quid avertis manum tuam, et dexteram tuam de medio sinu tuo in finem?
12Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
12Deus autem rex noster ante sæcula: operatus est salutem in medio terræ.
13Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
13Tu confirmasti in virtute tua mare; contribulasti capita draconum in aquis.
14For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
14Tu confregisti capita draconis; dedisti eum escam populis Æthiopum.
15If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
15Tu dirupisti fontes et torrentes; tu siccasti fluvios Ethan.
16When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
16Tuus est dies, et tua est nox; tu fabricatus es auroram et solem.
17Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
17Tu fecisti omnes terminos terræ; æstatem et ver tu plasmasti ea.
18Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
18Memor esto hujus: inimicus improperavit Domino, et populus insipiens incitavit nomen tuum.
19How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
19Ne tradas bestiis animas confitentes tibi, et animas pauperum tuorum ne obliviscaris in finem.
20As a dream when one awaketh; so , O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
20Respice in testamentum tuum, quia repleti sunt qui obscurati sunt terræ domibus iniquitatum.
21Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
21Ne avertatur humilis factus confusus; pauper et inops laudabunt nomen tuum.
22So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.
22Exsurge, Deus, judica causam tuam; memor esto improperiorum tuorum, eorum quæ ab insipiente sunt tota die.
23Nevertheless I am continually with thee: thou hast holden me by my right hand.
23Ne obliviscaris voces inimicorum tuorum: superbia eorum qui te oderunt ascendit semper.]
24Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
