Psalmorum 48
Clementine Vulgate, 1598Translation
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1In finem, filiis Core. Psalmus.
1Great is the LORD , and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.
2[Audite hæc, omnes gentes; auribus percipite, omnes qui habitatis orbem:
2Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
3quique terrigenæ et filii hominum, simul in unum dives et pauper.
3God is known in her palaces for a refuge.
4Os meum loquetur sapientiam, et meditatio cordis mei prudentiam.
4For, lo, the kings were assembled, they passed by together.
5Inclinabo in parabolam aurem meam; aperiam in psalterio propositionem meam.
5They saw it, and so they marvelled; they were troubled, and hasted away.
6Cur timebo in die mala? iniquitas calcanei mei circumdabit me.
6Fear took hold upon them there, and pain, as of a woman in travail.
7Qui confidunt in virtute sua, et in multitudine divitiarum suarum, gloriantur.
7Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind.
8Frater non redimit, redimet homo: non dabit Deo placationem suam,
8As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah.
9et pretium redemptionis animæ suæ. Et laborabit in æternum;
9We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.
10et vivet adhuc in finem.
10According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.
11Non videbit interitum, cum viderit sapientes morientes: simul insipiens et stultus peribunt. Et relinquent alienis divitias suas,
11Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.
12et sepulchra eorum domus illorum in æternum; tabernacula eorum in progenie et progenie: vocaverunt nomina sua in terris suis.
12Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof.
13Et homo, cum in honore esset, non intellexit. Comparatus est jumentis insipientibus, et similis factus est illis.
13Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following.
14Hæc via illorum scandalum ipsis; et postea in ore suo complacebunt.
14For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.
15Sicut oves in inferno positi sunt: mors depascet eos. Et dominabuntur eorum justi in matutino; et auxilium eorum veterascet in inferno a gloria eorum.
