Clementine Vulgate, 1598
Berean Standard Bible
1In finem, pro iis qui commutabuntur. David.
1God arises. His enemies are scattered, and those who hate Him flee His presence.
2[Salvum me fac, Deus, quoniam intraverunt aquæ usque ad animam meam.
2As smoke is blown away, You will drive them out; as wax melts before the fire, the wicked will perish in the presence of God.
3Infixus sum in limo profundi et non est substantia. Veni in altitudinem maris, et tempestas demersit me.
3But the righteous will be glad and rejoice before God; they will celebrate with joy.
4Laboravi clamans, raucæ factæ sunt fauces meæ; defecerunt oculi mei, dum spero in Deum meum.
4Sing to God! Sing praises to His name. Exalt Him who rides on the clouds — His name is the LORD— and rejoice before Him.
5Multiplicati sunt super capillos capitis mei qui oderunt me gratis. Confortati sunt qui persecuti sunt me inimici mei injuste; quæ non rapui, tunc exsolvebam.
5A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in His holy habitation.
6Deus, tu scis insipientiam meam; et delicta mea a te non sunt abscondita.
6God settles the lonely in families; He leads the prisoners out to prosperity, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land.
7Non erubescant in me qui exspectant te, Domine, Domine virtutum; non confundantur super me qui quærunt te, Deus Israël.
7O God, when You went out before Your people, when You marched through the wasteland, Selah
8Quoniam propter te sustinui opprobrium; operuit confusio faciem meam.
8the earth shook and the heavens poured down rain before God, the One on Sinai, before God, the God of Israel.
9Extraneus factus sum fratribus meis, et peregrinus filiis matris meæ.
9You sent abundant rain, O God; You refreshed Your weary inheritance.
10Quoniam zelus domus tuæ comedit me, et opprobria exprobrantium tibi ceciderunt super me.
10Your flock settled therein; O God, from Your bounty You provided for the poor.
11Et operui in jejunio animam meam, et factum est in opprobrium mihi.
11The Lord gives the command; a great company of women proclaim it:
12Et posui vestimentum meum cilicium; et factus sum illis in parabolam.
12“Kings and their armies flee in haste; she who waits at home divides the plunder.
13Adversum me loquebantur qui sedebant in porta, et in me psallebant qui bibebant vinum.
13Though you lie down among the sheepfolds, the wings of the dove are covered with silver, and her feathers with shimmering gold.”
14Ego vero orationem meam ad te, Domine; tempus beneplaciti, Deus. In multitudine misericordiæ tuæ, exaudi me in veritate salutis tuæ.
14When the Almighty scattered the kings in the land, it was like the snow falling on Zalmon.
15Eripe me de luto, ut non infigar; libera me ab iis qui oderunt me, et de profundis aquarum.
15A mountain of God is Mount Bashan; a mountain of many peaks is Mount Bashan.
16Non me demergat tempestas aquæ, neque absorbeat me profundum, neque urgeat super me puteus os suum.
16Why do you gaze in envy, O mountains of many peaks? This is the mountain God chose for His dwelling, where the LORD will surely dwell forever.
17Exaudi me, Domine, quoniam benigna est misericordia tua; secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum respice in me.
17The chariots of God are tens of thousands— thousands of thousands are they; the Lord is in His sanctuary as He was at Sinai.
18Et ne avertas faciem tuam a puero tuo; quoniam tribulor, velociter exaudi me.
18You have ascended on high; You have led captives away. You have received gifts from men, even from the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell there.
19Intende animæ meæ, et libera eam; propter inimicos meos, eripe me.
19Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, the God of our salvation. Selah
20Tu scis improperium meum, et confusionem meam, et reverentiam meam;
20Our God is a God of deliverance; the Lord GOD is our rescuer from death.
21in conspectu tuo sunt omnes qui tribulant me. Improperium exspectavit cor meum et miseriam: et sustinui qui simul contristaretur, et non fuit; et qui consolaretur, et non inveni.
21Surely God will crush the heads of His enemies, the hairy crowns of those who persist in guilty ways.
22Et dederunt in escam meam fel, et in siti mea potaverunt me aceto.
22The Lord said, “I will retrieve them from Bashan, I will bring them up from the depths of the sea,
23Fiat mensa eorum coram ipsis in laqueum, et in retributiones, et in scandalum.
23that your foot may be dipped in the blood of your foes— the tongues of your dogs in the same.”
24Obscurentur oculi eorum, ne videant, et dorsum eorum semper incurva.
24They have seen Your procession, O God— the march of my God and King into the sanctuary.
25Effunde super eos iram tuam, et furor iræ tuæ comprehendat eos.
25The singers lead the way, the musicians follow after, among the maidens playing tambourines.
26Fiat habitatio eorum deserta, et in tabernaculis eorum non sit qui inhabitet.
26Bless God in the great congregation; bless the LORD from the fountain of Israel.
27Quoniam quem tu percussisti persecuti sunt, et super dolorem vulnerum meorum addiderunt.
27There is Benjamin, the youngest, ruling them, the princes of Judah in their company, the princes of Zebulun and of Naphtali.
28Appone iniquitatem super iniquitatem eorum, et non intrent in justitiam tuam.
28Summon Your power, O God; show Your strength, O God, which You have exerted on our behalf.
29Deleantur de libro viventium, et cum justis non scribantur.
29Because of Your temple at Jerusalem kings will bring You gifts.
30Ego sum pauper et dolens; salus tua, Deus, suscepit me.
30Rebuke the beast in the reeds, the herd of bulls among the calves of the nations, until it submits, bringing bars of silver. Scatter the nations who delight in war.
31Laudabo nomen Dei cum cantico, et magnificabo eum in laude:
31Envoys will arrive from Egypt; Cush will stretch out her hands to God.
32et placebit Deo super vitulum novellum, cornua producentem et ungulas.
32Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth; sing praises to the Lord— Selah
33Videant pauperes, et lætentur; quærite Deum, et vivet anima vestra:
33to Him who rides upon the highest heavens of old; behold, His mighty voice resounds.
34quoniam exaudivit pauperes Dominus, et vinctos suos non despexit.
34Ascribe the power to God, whose majesty is over Israel, whose strength is in the skies.
35Laudent illum cæli et terra; mare, et omnia reptilia in eis.
35O God, You are awesome in Your sanctuary; the God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to His people. Blessed be God!
36Quoniam Deus salvam faciet Sion, et ædificabuntur civitates Juda, et inhabitabunt ibi, et hæreditate acquirent eam.
