Psalmen 108
Petrus Canisius Bible, 1939 (De Heilige Schrift)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Een lied; een psalm van David. Mijn hart is gerust, o mijn God; Ik wil zingen en spelen:
1Unto the end, a psalm for David.
2Word wakker, mijn lofzang; harp en citer ontwaak; Ik wil het morgenrood wekken!
2O God, be not thou silent in thy praise: for the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful man is opened against me.
3Ik wil U loven onder de volken, o Jahweh, U verheerlijken onder de naties;
3They have spoken against with deceitful tongues; and they have compassed me about with words of hatred; and have fought against me without cause.
4Want uw goedheid reikt tot de hemel, En tot de wolken uw trouw.
4Instead of making me a return of love, they detracted me: but I gave myself to prayer.
5Verhef U boven de hemelen, o God; Uw glorie vervulle de aarde!
5And they repaid me evil for good: and hatred for my love.
6Wil uw geliefden dan redden, Strek uw rechterhand uit, en verhoor ons!
6Set thou the sinner over him: and may the devil stand at his right hand.
7Bij zijn heiligheid heeft God het beloofd: Juichend zal ik Sikem verdelen, En het dal van Soekkot meten;
7When he is judged, may he go out condemned; and may his prayer be turned to sin.
8Mij behoort Gilad, van mij is Manasse. Efraïm is de helm van mijn hoofd, Juda mijn schepter,
8May his days be few: and his bishopric let another take.
9Moab is mijn voetenbekken; Op Edom werp ik mijn schoeisel, Over Filistea hef ik mijn zegekreet aan.
9May his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.
10Maar wie brengt mij nu binnen de vesting, Wie zal mij naar Edom geleiden;
10Let his children be carried about vagabonds, and beg; and let them be cast out of their dwellings.
11Moet Gij het niet zijn, die ons hebt verstoten, o God, En niet langer met onze heirscharen optrekt, o God?
11May the userer search all his substance: and let strangers plunder his labours.
12Ach, help ons dan tegen den vijand, Want hulp van mensen is ijdel.
12May there be none to help him: nor none to pity his fatherless offspring.
13Maar met God zijn wij sterk; Hij zal onze verdrukkers vertrappen!
13May his posterity be cut off; in one generation may his name be blotted out.
