Psalmorum 79
Clementine Vulgate, 1598Translation
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1In finem, pro iis qui commutabuntur. Testimonium Asaph, psalmus.
1O God, the heathen are come into thine inheritance; thy holy temple have they defiled; they have laid Jerusalem on heaps.
2[Qui regis Israël, intende; qui deducis velut ovem Joseph. Qui sedes super cherubim, manifestare
2The dead bodies of thy servants have they given to be meat unto the fowls of the heaven, the flesh of thy saints unto the beasts of the earth.
3coram Ephraim, Benjamin, et Manasse. Excita potentiam tuam, et veni, ut salvos facias nos.
3Their blood have they shed like water round about Jerusalem; and there was none to bury them .
4Deus, converte nos, et ostende faciem tuam, et salvi erimus.
4We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.
5Domine Deus virtutum, quousque irasceris super orationem servi tui?
5How long, LORD ? wilt thou be angry for ever? shall thy jealousy burn like fire?
6cibabis nos pane lacrimarum, et potum dabis nobis in lacrimis in mensura?
6Pour out thy wrath upon the heathen that have not known thee, and upon the kingdoms that have not called upon thy name.
7Posuisti nos in contradictionem vicinis nostris, et inimici nostri subsannaverunt nos.
7For they have devoured Jacob, and laid waste his dwelling place.
8Deus virtutum, converte nos, et ostende faciem tuam, et salvi erimus.
8O remember not against us former iniquities: let thy tender mercies speedily prevent us: for we are brought very low.
9Vineam de Ægypto transtulisti: ejecisti gentes, et plantasti eam.
9Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of thy name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for thy name’s sake.
10Dux itineris fuisti in conspectu ejus; plantasti radices ejus, et implevit terram.
10Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is their God? let him be known among the heathen in our sight by the revenging of the blood of thy servants which is shed.
11Operuit montes umbra ejus, et arbusta ejus cedros Dei.
11Let the sighing of the prisoner come before thee; according to the greatness of thy power preserve thou those that are appointed to die;
12Extendit palmites suos usque ad mare, et usque ad flumen propagines ejus.
12And render unto our neighbours sevenfold into their bosom their reproach, wherewith they have reproached thee, O Lord.
13Ut quid destruxisti maceriam ejus, et vindemiant eam omnes qui prætergrediuntur viam?
13So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks for ever: we will shew forth thy praise to all generations.
14Exterminavit eam aper de silva, et singularis ferus depastus est eam.
