Psalms 22
1 For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Doe of the Dawn.” A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from saving me, so far from my words of groaning?
In finem, pro susceptione matutina, Psalmus David. Deus, Deus meus, respice in me: quare me dereliquisti? longe a salute mea verba delictorum meorum.
2 I cry out by day, O my God, but You do not answer, and by night, but I have no rest.
Deus meus clamabo per diem, et non exaudies: et nocte, et non ad insipientiam mihi.
3 Yet You are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.
Tu autem in sancto habitas, Laus Israel.
4 In You our fathers trusted; they trusted and You delivered them.
In te speraverunt patres nostri: speraverunt, et liberasti eos.
5 They cried out to You and were set free; they trusted in You and were not disappointed.
Ad te clamaverunt, et salvi facti sunt: in te speraverunt, et non sunt confusi.
6 But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by men and despised by the people.
Ego autem sum vermis, et non homo: opprobrium hominum, et abiectio plebis.
7 All who see me mock me; they sneer and shake their heads:
Omnes videntes me, deriserunt me: locuti sunt labiis, et moverunt caput.
8 “He trusts in the LORD, let the LORD deliver him; let the LORD rescue him, since He delights in him.”
Speravit in Domino, eripiat eum: salvum faciat eum, quoniam vult eum.
9 Yet You brought me forth from the womb; You made me secure at my mother’s breast.
Quoniam tu es, qui extraxisti me de ventre: spes mea ab uberibus matris meæ.
10 From birth I was cast upon You; from my mother’s womb You have been my God.
In te proiectus sum ex utero: de ventre matris meæ Deus meus es tu,
11 Be not far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help.
ne discesseris a me: Quoniam tribulatio proxima est: quoniam non est qui adiuvet.
12 Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.
Circumdederunt me vituli multi: tauri pingues obsederunt me.
13 They open their jaws against me like lions that roar and maul.
Aperuerunt super me os suum, sicut leo rapiens et rugiens.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are disjointed. My heart is like wax; it melts away within me.
Sicut aqua effusus sum: et dispersa sunt omnia ossa mea. Factum est cor meum tamquam cera liquescens in medio ventris mei.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth. You lay me in the dust of death.
Aruit tamquam testa virtus mea, et lingua mea adhæsit faucibus meis: et in pulverem mortis deduxisti me.
16 For dogs surround me; a band of evil men encircles me; they have pierced my hands and feet.
Quoniam circumdederunt me canes multi: concilium malignantium obsedit me. Foderunt manus meas et pedes meos:
17 I can count all my bones; they stare and gloat over me.
dinumeraverunt omnia ossa mea. Ipsi vero consideraverunt et inspexerunt me:
18 They divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing.
diviserunt sibi vestimenta mea, et super vestem meam miserunt sortem.
19 But You, O LORD, be not far off; O my Strength, come quickly to help me.
Tu autem Domine ne elongaveris auxilium tuum a me: ad defensionem meam conspice.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the power of wild dogs.
Erue a framea Deus animam meam: et de manu canis unicam meam:
21 Save me from the mouth of the lion; at the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me!
Salva me ex ore leonis: et a cornibus unicornium humilitatem meam.
22 I will proclaim Your name to my brothers; I will praise You in the assembly.
Narrabo nomen tuum fratribus meis: in medio ecclesiæ laudabo te.
23 You who fear the LORD, praise Him! All descendants of Jacob, honor Him! All offspring of Israel, revere Him!
Qui timetis Dominum laudate eum: universum semen Iacob glorificate eum:
24 For He has not despised or detested the torment of the afflicted. He has not hidden His face from him, but has attended to his cry for help.
Timeat eum omne semen Israel: quoniam non sprevit, neque despexit deprecationem pauperis: Nec avertit faciem suam a me: et cum clamarem ad eum exaudivit me.
25 My praise for You resounds in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows before those who fear You.
Apud te laus mea in ecclesia magna: vota mea reddam in conspectu timentium eum.
26 The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the LORD will praise Him. May your hearts live forever!
Edent pauperes, et saturabuntur: et laudabunt Dominum qui requirunt eum: vivent corda eorum in sæculum sæculi.
27 All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the LORD. All the families of the nations will bow down before Him.
Reminiscentur et convertentur ad Dominum universi fines terræ: Et adorabunt in conspectu eius universæ familiæ Gentium.
28 For dominion belongs to the LORD and He rules over the nations.
Quoniam Domini est regnum: et ipse dominabitur Gentium.
29 All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before Him— even those unable to preserve their lives.
Manducaverunt et adoraverunt omnes pingues terræ: in conspectu eius cadent omnes qui descendunt in terram.
30 Posterity will serve Him; they will declare the Lord to a new generation.
Et anima mea illi vivet: et semen meum serviet ipsi.
31 They will come and proclaim His righteousness to a people yet unborn— all that He has done.
Annunciabitur Domino generatio ventura: et annunciabunt cæli iustitiam eius populo qui nascetur, quem fecit Dominus.
