Clementine Vulgate, 1598
World English Bible
1In finem, filiis Core, pro arcanis. Psalmus.
1My heart overflows with a noble theme. I recite my verses for the king. My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer.
2[Deus noster refugium et virtus; adjutor in tribulationibus quæ invenerunt nos nimis.
2You are the most excellent of the sons of men. Grace has anointed your lips, therefore God has blessed you forever.
3Propterea non timebimus dum turbabitur terra, et transferentur montes in cor maris.
3Strap your sword on your thigh, O mighty one, in your splendor and your majesty.
4Sonuerunt, et turbatæ sunt aquæ eorum; conturbati sunt montes in fortitudine ejus.
4In your majesty ride on victoriously on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness. Let your right hand display awesome deeds.
5Fluminis impetus lætificat civitatem Dei: sanctificavit tabernaculum suum Altissimus.
5Your arrows are sharp. The nations fall under you, with arrows in the heart of the king’s enemies.
6Deus in medio ejus, non commovebitur; adjuvabit eam Deus mane diluculo.
6Your throne, God, is forever and ever. A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom.
7Conturbatæ sunt gentes, et inclinata sunt regna: dedit vocem suam, mota est terra.
7You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
8Dominus virtutum nobiscum; susceptor noster Deus Jacob.
8All your garments smell like myrrh, aloes, and cassia. Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made you glad.
9Venite, et videte opera Domini, quæ posuit prodigia super terram,
9Kings’ daughters are among your honorable women. At your right hand the queen stands in gold of Ophir.
10auferens bella usque ad finem terræ. Arcum conteret, et confringet arma, et scuta comburet igni.
10Listen, daughter, consider, and turn your ear. Forget your own people, and also your father’s house.
11Vacate, et videte quoniam ego sum Deus; exaltabor in gentibus, et exaltabor in terra.
11So the king will desire your beauty, honor him, for he is your lord.
12Dominus virtutum nobiscum; susceptor noster Deus Jacob.]
12The daughter of Tyre comes with a gift. The rich among the people entreat your favor.
