World English Bible
1Ipsi David. [Benedic, anima mea, Domino, et omnia quæ intra me sunt nomini sancto ejus.
1Hear my prayer, LORD! Let my cry come to you.
2Benedic, anima mea, Domino, et noli oblivisci omnes retributiones ejus.
2Don’t hide your face from me in the day of my distress. Turn your ear to me. Answer me quickly in the day when I call.
3Qui propitiatur omnibus iniquitatibus tuis; qui sanat omnes infirmitates tuas:
3For my days consume away like smoke. My bones are burned as a torch.
4qui redimit de interitu vitam tuam; qui coronat te in misericordia et miserationibus:
4My heart is blighted like grass, and withered, for I forget to eat my bread.
5qui replet in bonis desiderium tuum; renovabitur ut aquilæ juventus tua:
5By reason of the voice of my groaning, my bones stick to my skin.
6faciens misericordias Dominus, et judicium omnibus injuriam patientibus.
6I am like a pelican of the wilderness. I have become as an owl of the waste places.
7Notas fecit vias suas Moysi; filiis Israël voluntates suas.
7I watch, and have become like a sparrow that is alone on the housetop.
8Miserator et misericors Dominus: longanimis, et multum misericors.
8My enemies reproach me all day. Those who are mad at me use my name as a curse.
9Non in perpetuum irascetur, neque in æternum comminabitur.
9For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mixed my drink with tears,
10Non secundum peccata nostra fecit nobis, neque secundum iniquitates nostras retribuit nobis.
10because of your indignation and your wrath; for you have taken me up and thrown me away.
11Quoniam secundum altitudinem cæli a terra, corroboravit misericordiam suam super timentes se;
11My days are like a long shadow. I have withered like grass.
12quantum distat ortus ab occidente, longe fecit a nobis iniquitates nostras.
12But you, LORD, will remain forever; your renown endures to all generations.
13Quomodo miseretur pater filiorum, misertus est Dominus timentibus se.
13You will arise and have mercy on Zion, for it is time to have pity on her. Yes, the set time has come.
14Quoniam ipse cognovit figmentum nostrum; recordatus est quoniam pulvis sumus.
14For your servants take pleasure in her stones, and have pity on her dust.
15Homo, sicut fœnum dies ejus; tamquam flos agri, sic efflorebit:
15So the nations will fear the LORD’s name, all the kings of the earth your glory.
16quoniam spiritus pertransibit in illo, et non subsistet, et non cognoscet amplius locum suum.
16For the LORD has built up Zion. He has appeared in his glory.
17Misericordia autem Domini ab æterno, et usque in æternum super timentes eum. Et justitia illius in filios filiorum,
17He has responded to the prayer of the destitute, and has not despised their prayer.
18his qui servant testamentum ejus, et memores sunt mandatorum ipsius ad faciendum ea.
18This will be written for the generation to come. A people which will be created will praise the LORD,
19Dominus in cælo paravit sedem suam, et regnum ipsius omnibus dominabitur.
19for he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary. From heaven, the LORD saw the earth,
20Benedicite Domino, omnes angeli ejus: potentes virtute, facientes verbum illius, ad audiendam vocem sermonum ejus.
20to hear the groans of the prisoner, to free those who are condemned to death,
21Benedicite Domino, omnes virtutes ejus; ministri ejus, qui facitis voluntatem ejus.
21that men may declare the LORD’s name in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem,
22Benedicite Domino, omnia opera ejus: in omni loco dominationis ejus, benedic, anima mea, Domino.]
22when the peoples are gathered together, the kingdoms, to serve the LORD.
