1Psalmus, in Salomonem.
1A psalm on Solomon.
2[Deus, judicium tuum regi da, et justitiam tuam filio regis; judicare populum tuum in justitia, et pauperes tuos in judicio.
2Give to the king thy judgment, O God: and to the king’s son thy justice: To judge thy people with justice, and thy poor with judgment.
3Suscipiant montes pacem populo, et colles justitiam.
3Let the mountains receive peace for the people: and the hills justice.
4Judicabit pauperes populi, et salvos faciet filios pauperum, et humiliabit calumniatorem.
4He shall judge the poor of the people, and he shall save the children of the poor: and he shall humble the oppressor.
5Et permanebit cum sole, et ante lunam, in generatione et generationem.
5And he shall continue with the sun, and before the moon, throughout all generations.
6Descendet sicut pluvia in vellus, et sicut stillicidia stillantia super terram.
6He shall come down like rain upon the fleece; and as showers falling gently upon the earth.
7Orietur in diebus ejus justitia, et abundantia pacis, donec auferatur luna.
7In his days shall justice spring up, and abundance of peace, till the moon be taken sway.
8Et dominabitur a mari usque ad mare, et a flumine usque ad terminos orbis terrarum.
8And he shall rule from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
9Coram illo procident Æthiopes, et inimici ejus terram lingent.
9Before him the Ethiopians shall fall down: and his enemies shall lick the ground.
10Reges Tharsis et insulæ munera offerent; reges Arabum et Saba dona adducent:
10The kings of Tharsis and the islands shall offer presents: the kings of the Arabians and of Saba shall bring gifts:
11et adorabunt eum omnes reges terræ; omnes gentes servient ei.
11And all kings of the earth shall adore him: all nations shall serve him.
12Quia liberabit pauperem a potente, et pauperem cui non erat adjutor.
12For he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: and the needy that had no helper.
13Parcet pauperi et inopi, et animas pauperum salvas faciet.
13He shall spare the poor and needy: and he shall save the souls of the poor.
14Ex usuris et iniquitate redimet animas eorum, et honorabile nomen eorum coram illo.
14He shall redeem their souls from usuries and iniquity: and their names shall be honourable in his sight.
15Et vivet, et dabitur ei de auro Arabiæ; et adorabunt de ipso semper, tota die benedicent ei.
15And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Arabia, for him they shall always adore: they shall bless him all the day.
16Et erit firmamentum in terra in summis montium; superextolletur super Libanum fructus ejus, et florebunt de civitate sicut fœnum terræ.
16And there shall be a firmament on the earth on the tops of mountains, above Libanus shall the fruit thereof be exalted: and they of the city shall flourish like the grass of the earth.
17Sit nomen ejus benedictum in sæcula; ante solem permanet nomen ejus. Et benedicentur in ipso omnes tribus terræ; omnes gentes magnificabunt eum.
17Let his name be blessed for evermore: his name continueth before the sun. And in him shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed: all nations shall magnify him.
18Benedictus Dominus Deus Israël, qui facit mirabilia solus.
18Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone doth wonderful things.
19Et benedictum nomen majestatis ejus in æternum, et replebitur majestate ejus omnis terra. Fiat, fiat.]
