1Locutus est autem David Domino verba carminis hujus in die qua liberavit eum Dominus de manu omnium inimicorum suorum, et de manu Saul.
1And David sang this song to the LORD on the day the LORD had delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul.
2Et ait: [Dominus petra mea, et robur meum, et salvator meus.
2He said: “The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer.
3Deus fortis meus: sperabo in eum; scutum meum, et cornu salutis meæ: elevator meus, et refugium meum; salvator meus: de iniquitate liberabis me.
3My God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation. My stronghold, my refuge, and my Savior, You save me from violence.
4Laudabilem invocabo Dominum, et ab inimicis meis salvus ero.
4I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.
5Quia circumdederunt me contritiones mortis: torrentes Belial terruerunt me.
5For the waves of death engulfed me; the torrents of chaos overwhelmed me.
6Funes inferni circumdederunt me: prævenerunt me laquei mortis.
6The cords of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me.
7In tribulatione mea invocabo Dominum, et ad Deum meum clamabo: et exaudiet de templo suo vocem meam, et clamor meus veniet ad aures ejus.
7In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried out to my God. And from His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for help reached His ears.
8Commota est et contremuit terra; fundamenta montium concussa sunt, et conquassata: quoniam iratus est eis.
8Then the earth shook and quaked; the foundations of the heavens trembled; they were shaken because He burned with anger.
9Ascendit fumus de naribus ejus, et ignis de ore ejus vorabit: carbones succensi sunt ab eo.
9Smoke rose from His nostrils, and consuming fire came from His mouth; glowing coals blazed forth.
10Inclinavit cælos, et descendit: et caligo sub pedibus ejus.
10He parted the heavens and came down with dark clouds beneath His feet.
11Et ascendit super cherubim, et volavit: et lapsus est super pennas venti.
11He mounted a cherub and flew; He soared on the wings of the wind.
12Posuit tenebras in circuitu suo latibulum, cribrans aquas de nubibus cælorum.
12He made darkness a canopy around Him, a gathering of water and thick clouds.
13Præ fulgore in conspectu ejus, succensi sunt carbones ignis.
13From the brightness of His presence coals of fire blazed forth.
14Tonabit de cælo Dominus, et excelsus dabit vocem suam.
14The LORD thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded.
15Misit sagittas et dissipavit eos; fulgur, et consumpsit eos.
15He shot His arrows and scattered the foes; He hurled lightning and routed them.
16Et apparuerunt effusiones maris, et revelata sunt fundamenta orbis ab increpatione Domini, ab inspiratione spiritus furoris ejus.
16The channels of the sea appeared, and the foundations of the world were exposed at the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of His nostrils.
17Misit de excelso, et assumpsit me, et extraxit me de aquis multis.
17He reached down from on high and took hold of me; He drew me out of deep waters.
18Liberavit me ab inimico meo potentissimo, et ab his qui oderant me: quoniam robustiores me erant.
18He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from foes too mighty for me.
19Prævenit me in die afflictionis meæ, et factus est Dominus firmamentum meum.
19They confronted me in my day of calamity, but the LORD was my support.
20Et eduxit me in latitudinem: liberavit me, quia complacui ei.
20He brought me out into the open; He rescued me because He delighted in me.
21Retribuet mihi Dominus secundum justitiam meam: et secundum munditiam manuum mearum reddet mihi.
21The LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness; He has repaid me according to the cleanness of my hands.
22Quia custodivi vias Domini, et non egi impie a Deo meo.
22For I have kept the ways of the LORD and have not wickedly departed from my God.
23Omnia enim judicia ejus in conspectu meo, et præcepta ejus non amovi a me.
23For all His ordinances are before me; I have not disregarded His statutes.
24Et ero perfectus cum eo, et custodiam me ab iniquitate mea.
24And I have been blameless before Him and kept myself from iniquity.
25Et restituet mihi Dominus secundum justitiam meam, et secundum munditiam manuum mearum in conspectu oculorum suorum.
25So the LORD has repaid me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in His sight.
26Cum sancto sanctus eris, et cum robusto perfectus.
26To the faithful You show Yourself faithful, to the blameless You show Yourself blameless;
27Cum electo electus eris, et cum perverso perverteris.
27to the pure You show Yourself pure, but to the crooked You show Yourself shrewd.
28Et populum pauperem salvum facies: oculisque tuis excelsos humiliabis.
28You save an afflicted people, but Your eyes are on the haughty to bring them down.
29Quia tu lucerna mea, Domine, et tu, Domine, illuminabis tenebras meas.
29For You, O LORD, are my lamp; the LORD lights up my darkness.
30In te enim curram accinctus: in Deo meo transiliam murum.
30For in You I can charge an army; with my God I can scale a wall.
31Deus, immaculata via ejus; eloquium Domini igne examinatum: scutum est omnium sperantium in se.
31As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.
32Quis est Deus præter Dominum, et quis fortis præter Deum nostrum?
32For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?
33Deus qui accinxit me fortitudine, et complanavit perfectam viam meam.
33God is my strong fortress and He makes my way clear.
34Coæquans pedes meos cervis, et super excelsa mea statuens me;
34He makes my feet like those of a deer and stations me upon the heights.
35docens manus meas ad prælium, et componens quasi arcum æreum brachia mea.
35He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
36Dedisti mihi clypeum salutis tuæ, et mansuetudo tua multiplicavit me.
36You have given me Your shield of salvation, and Your gentleness exalts me.
37Dilatabis gressus meos subtus me, et non deficient tali mei.
37You broaden the path beneath me so that my ankles do not give way.
38Persequar inimicos meos, et conteram, et non convertar donec consumam eos.
38I pursued my enemies and destroyed them; I did not turn back until they were consumed.
39Consumam eos et confringam, ut non consurgant: cadent sub pedibus meis.
39I devoured and crushed them so they could not rise; they have fallen under my feet.
40Accinxisti me fortitudine ad prælium: incurvasti resistentes mihi subtus me.
40You have armed me with strength for battle; You have subdued my foes beneath me.
41Inimicos meos dedisti mihi dorsum; odientes me, et disperdam eos.
41You have made my enemies retreat before me; I put an end to those who hated me.
42Clamabunt, et non erit qui salvet; ad Dominum, et non exaudiet eos.
42They looked, but there was no one to save them— to the LORD, but He did not answer.
43Delebo eos ut pulverem terræ; quasi lutum platearum comminuam eos atque confringam.
43I ground them as the dust of the earth; I crushed and trampled them like mud in the streets.
44Salvabis me a contradictionibus populi mei; custodies me in caput gentium: populus quem ignoro serviet mihi.
44You have delivered me from the strife of my people; You have preserved me as the head of nations; a people I had not known shall serve me.
45Filii alieni resistent mihi; auditu auris obedient mihi.
45Foreigners cower before me; when they hear me, they obey me.
46Filii alieni defluxerunt, et contrahentur in angustiis suis.
46Foreigners lose heart and come trembling from their strongholds.
47Vivit Dominus, et benedictus Deus meus, et exaltabitur Deus fortis salutis meæ.
47The LORD lives, and blessed be my Rock! And may God, the Rock of my salvation, be exalted—
48Deus qui das vindictas mihi, et dejicis populos sub me.
48the God who avenges me and brings down nations beneath me,
49Qui educis me ab inimicis meis, et a resistentibus mihi elevas me: a viro iniquo liberabis me.
49who frees me from my enemies. You exalt me above my foes; You rescue me from violent men.
50Propterea confitebor tibi, Domine, in gentibus, et nomini tuo cantabo:
50Therefore I will praise You, O LORD, among the nations; I will sing praises to Your name.
51magnificans salutes regis sui, et faciens misericordiam christo suo David, et semini ejus in sempiternum.]
51Great salvation He brings to His king. He shows loving devotion to His anointed, to David and his descendants forever.”
