JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1Ipsi David. [Benedic, anima mea, Domino, et omnia quæ intra me sunt nomini sancto ejus.
1(102-1) A Prayer of the afflicted, when he fainteth, and poureth out his complaint before the LORD. (102-2) O LORD, hear my prayer, and let my cry come unto Thee.
2Benedic, anima mea, Domino, et noli oblivisci omnes retributiones ejus.
2(102-3) Hide not Thy face from me in the day of my distress; incline Thine ear unto me; in the day when I call answer me speedily.
3Qui propitiatur omnibus iniquitatibus tuis; qui sanat omnes infirmitates tuas:
3(102-4) For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as a hearth.
4qui redimit de interitu vitam tuam; qui coronat te in misericordia et miserationibus:
4(102-5) My heart is smitten like grass, and withered; for I forget to eat my bread.
5qui replet in bonis desiderium tuum; renovabitur ut aquilæ juventus tua:
5(102-6) By reason of the voice of my sighing my bones cleave to my flesh.
6faciens misericordias Dominus, et judicium omnibus injuriam patientibus.
6(102-7) I am like a pelican of the wilderness; I am become as an owl of the waste places.
7Notas fecit vias suas Moysi; filiis Israël voluntates suas.
7(102-8) I watch, and am become like a sparrow that is alone upon the housetop.
8Miserator et misericors Dominus: longanimis, et multum misericors.
8(102-9) Mine enemies taunt me all the day; they that are mad against me do curse by me.
9Non in perpetuum irascetur, neque in æternum comminabitur.
9(102-10) For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping,
10Non secundum peccata nostra fecit nobis, neque secundum iniquitates nostras retribuit nobis.
10(102-11) Because of Thine indignation and Thy wrath; for Thou hast taken me up, and cast me away.
11Quoniam secundum altitudinem cæli a terra, corroboravit misericordiam suam super timentes se;
11(102-12) My days are like a lengthening shadow; and I am withered like grass.
12quantum distat ortus ab occidente, longe fecit a nobis iniquitates nostras.
12(102-13) But Thou, O LORD, sittest enthroned for ever; and Thy name is unto all generations.
13Quomodo miseretur pater filiorum, misertus est Dominus timentibus se.
13(102-14) Thou wilt arise, and have compassion upon Zion; for it is time to be gracious unto her, for the appointed time is come.
14Quoniam ipse cognovit figmentum nostrum; recordatus est quoniam pulvis sumus.
14(102-15) For Thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and love her dust.
15Homo, sicut fœnum dies ejus; tamquam flos agri, sic efflorebit:
15(102-16) So the nations will fear the name of the LORD, and all the kings of the earth Thy glory;
16quoniam spiritus pertransibit in illo, et non subsistet, et non cognoscet amplius locum suum.
16(102-17) When the LORD hath built up Zion, when He hath appeared in His glory;
17Misericordia autem Domini ab æterno, et usque in æternum super timentes eum. Et justitia illius in filios filiorum,
17(102-18) When He hath regarded the prayer of the destitute, and hath not despised their prayer.
18his qui servant testamentum ejus, et memores sunt mandatorum ipsius ad faciendum ea.
18(102-19) This shall be written for the generation to come; and a people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
19Dominus in cælo paravit sedem suam, et regnum ipsius omnibus dominabitur.
19(102-20) For He hath looked down from the height of His sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth;
20Benedicite Domino, omnes angeli ejus: potentes virtute, facientes verbum illius, ad audiendam vocem sermonum ejus.
20(102-21) To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;
21Benedicite Domino, omnes virtutes ejus; ministri ejus, qui facitis voluntatem ejus.
21(102-22) That men may tell of the name of the LORD in Zion, and His praise in Jerusalem;
22Benedicite Domino, omnia opera ejus: in omni loco dominationis ejus, benedic, anima mea, Domino.]
22(102-23) When the peoples are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
