1Psalmus cantici, in dedicatione domus David.
1A psalm of a canticle, at the dedication of David’s house.
2[Exaltabo te, Domine, quoniam suscepisti me, nec delectasti inimicos meos super me.
2I will extol thee, O Lord, for thou hast upheld me: and hast not made my enemies to rejoice over me.
3Domine Deus meus, clamavi ad te, et sanasti me.
3O Lord my God, I have cried to thee, and then hast healed me.
4Domine, eduxisti ab inferno animam meam; salvasti me a descendentibus in lacum.
4Thou hast brought forth, O Lord, my soul from hell: thou hast saved me from them that go down into the pit.
5Psallite Domino, sancti ejus; et confitemini memoriæ sanctitatis ejus.
5Sing to the Lord, O ye his saints: and give praise to the memory of his holiness.
6Quoniam ira in indignatione ejus, et vita in voluntate ejus: ad vesperum demorabitur fletus, et ad matutinum lætitia.
6For wrath is in his indignation; and life in his good will. In the evening weeping shall have place, and in the morning gladness.
7Ego autem dixi in abundantia mea: Non movebor in æternum.
7And in my abundance I said: I shall never be moved.
8Domine, in voluntate tua præstitisti decori meo virtutem; avertisti faciem tuam a me, et factus sum conturbatus.
8O Lord, in thy favour, thou gavest strength to my beauty. Thou turnedst away thy face from me, and I became troubled.
9Ad te, Domine, clamabo, et ad Deum meum deprecabor.
9To thee, O Lord, will I cry: and I will make supplication to my God.
10Quæ utilitas in sanguine meo, dum descendo in corruptionem? numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis, aut annuntiabit veritatem tuam?
10What profit is there in my blood, whilst I go down to corruption? Shall dust confess to thee, or declare thy truth?
11Audivit Dominus, et misertus est mei; Dominus factus est adjutor meus.
11The Lord hath heard, and hath had mercy on me: the Lord became my helper.
12Convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi; conscidisti saccum meum, et circumdedisti me lætitia:
12Thou hast turned for me my mourning into joy: thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness:
13ut cantet tibi gloria mea, et non compungar. Domine Deus meus, in æternum confitebor tibi.]
13To the end that my glory may sing to thee, and I may not regret: O Lord my God, I will give praise to thee for ever.
