World English Bible
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Let God arise! Let his enemies be scattered! Let them who hate him also flee before him.
1In finem, pro iis qui commutabuntur. David.
2As smoke is driven away, so drive them away. As wax melts before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
2[Salvum me fac, Deus, quoniam intraverunt aquæ usque ad animam meam.
3But let the righteous be glad. Let them rejoice before God. Yes, let them rejoice with gladness.
3Infixus sum in limo profundi et non est substantia. Veni in altitudinem maris, et tempestas demersit me.
4Sing to God! Sing praises to his name! Extol him who rides on the clouds: to the LORD, his name! Rejoice before him!
4Laboravi clamans, raucæ factæ sunt fauces meæ; defecerunt oculi mei, dum spero in Deum meum.
5A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
5Multiplicati sunt super capillos capitis mei qui oderunt me gratis. Confortati sunt qui persecuti sunt me inimici mei injuste; quæ non rapui, tunc exsolvebam.
6God sets the lonely in families. He brings out the prisoners with singing, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land.
6Deus, tu scis insipientiam meam; et delicta mea a te non sunt abscondita.
7God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wilderness... Selah.
7Non erubescant in me qui exspectant te, Domine, Domine virtutum; non confundantur super me qui quærunt te, Deus Israël.
8The earth trembled. The sky also poured down rain at the presence of the God of Sinai— at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
8Quoniam propter te sustinui opprobrium; operuit confusio faciem meam.
9You, God, sent a plentiful rain. You confirmed your inheritance when it was weary.
9Extraneus factus sum fratribus meis, et peregrinus filiis matris meæ.
10Your congregation lived therein. You, God, prepared your goodness for the poor.
10Quoniam zelus domus tuæ comedit me, et opprobria exprobrantium tibi ceciderunt super me.
11The Lord announced the word. The ones who proclaim it are a great company.
11Et operui in jejunio animam meam, et factum est in opprobrium mihi.
12“Kings of armies flee! They flee!” She who waits at home divides the plunder,
12Et posui vestimentum meum cilicium; et factus sum illis in parabolam.
13while you sleep among the camp fires, the wings of a dove sheathed with silver, her feathers with shining gold.
13Adversum me loquebantur qui sedebant in porta, et in me psallebant qui bibebant vinum.
14When the Almighty scattered kings in her, it snowed on Zalmon.
14Ego vero orationem meam ad te, Domine; tempus beneplaciti, Deus. In multitudine misericordiæ tuæ, exaudi me in veritate salutis tuæ.
15The mountains of Bashan are majestic mountains. The mountains of Bashan are rugged.
15Eripe me de luto, ut non infigar; libera me ab iis qui oderunt me, et de profundis aquarum.
16Why do you look in envy, you rugged mountains, at the mountain where God chooses to reign? Yes, the LORD will dwell there forever.
16Non me demergat tempestas aquæ, neque absorbeat me profundum, neque urgeat super me puteus os suum.
17The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands. The Lord is among them, from Sinai, into the sanctuary.
17Exaudi me, Domine, quoniam benigna est misericordia tua; secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum respice in me.
18You have ascended on high. You have led away captives. You have received gifts among people, yes, among the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell there.
18Et ne avertas faciem tuam a puero tuo; quoniam tribulor, velociter exaudi me.
19Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens, even the God who is our salvation. Selah.
19Intende animæ meæ, et libera eam; propter inimicos meos, eripe me.
20God is to us a God of deliverance. To GOD, the Lord, belongs escape from death.
20Tu scis improperium meum, et confusionem meam, et reverentiam meam;
21But God will strike through the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of such a one as still continues in his guiltiness.
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.
22The Lord said, “I will bring you again from Bashan, I will bring you again from the depths of the sea,
22Et dederunt in escam meam fel, et in siti mea potaverunt me aceto.
23that you may crush them, dipping your foot in blood, that the tongues of your dogs may have their portion from your enemies.”
23Fiat mensa eorum coram ipsis in laqueum, et in retributiones, et in scandalum.
24They have seen your processions, God, even the processions of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.
24Obscurentur oculi eorum, ne videant, et dorsum eorum semper incurva.
25The singers went before, the minstrels followed after, among the ladies playing with tambourines,
25Effunde super eos iram tuam, et furor iræ tuæ comprehendat eos.
26“Bless God in the congregations, even the Lord in the assembly of Israel!”
26Fiat habitatio eorum deserta, et in tabernaculis eorum non sit qui inhabitet.
27There is little Benjamin, their ruler, the princes of Judah, their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.
27Quoniam quem tu percussisti persecuti sunt, et super dolorem vulnerum meorum addiderunt.
28Your God has commanded your strength. Strengthen, God, that which you have done for us.
28Appone iniquitatem super iniquitatem eorum, et non intrent in justitiam tuam.
29Because of your temple at Jerusalem, kings will bring presents to you.
29Deleantur de libro viventium, et cum justis non scribantur.
30Rebuke the wild animal of the reeds, the multitude of the bulls with the calves of the peoples. Trample under foot the bars of silver. Scatter the nations who delight in war.
30Ego sum pauper et dolens; salus tua, Deus, suscepit me.
31Princes shall come out of Egypt. Ethiopia shall hurry to stretch out her hands to God.
31Laudabo nomen Dei cum cantico, et magnificabo eum in laude:
32Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth! Sing praises to the Lord— Selah—
32et placebit Deo super vitulum novellum, cornua producentem et ungulas.
33to him who rides on the heaven of heavens, which are of old; behold, he utters his voice, a mighty voice.
33Videant pauperes, et lætentur; quærite Deum, et vivet anima vestra:
34Ascribe strength to God! His excellency is over Israel, his strength is in the skies.
34quoniam exaudivit pauperes Dominus, et vinctos suos non despexit.
35You are awesome, God, in your sanctuaries. The God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God!
35Laudent illum cæli et terra; mare, et omnia reptilia in eis.
