Psalms 69
1 Save me, O God; for the waters are come in to my soul.
In finem, pro iis, qui commutabuntur, David. Salvum me fac Deus: quoniam intraverunt aquæ usque ad animam meam.
2 I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me.
Infixus sum in limo profundi: et non est substantia. Veni in altitudinem maris: et tempestas demersit me.
3 I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: my eyes fail while I wait for my God.
Laboravi clamans, raucæ factæ sunt fauces meæ: defecerunt oculi mei, dum spero in Deum meum.
4 They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head: they that would destroy me, being my enemies wrongfully, are mighty: then I restored that which I took not away.
Multiplicati sunt super capillos capitis mei, qui oderunt me gratis. Confortati sunt qui persecuti sunt me inimici mei iniuste: quæ non rapui, tunc exolvebam.
5 O God, you know my foolishness; and my sins are not hid from you.
Deus tu scis insipientiam meam: et delicta mea a te non sunt abscondita.
6 Let not them that wait on you, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed for my sake: let not those that seek you be confounded for my sake, O God of Israel.
Non erubescant in me qui expectant te Domine, Domine virtutum. Non confundantur super me qui quærunt te, Deus Israel.
7 Because for your sake I have borne reproach; shame has covered my face.
Quoniam propter te sustinui opprobrium: operuit confusio faciem meam.
8 I am become a stranger to my brothers, and an alien to my mother’s children.
Extraneus factus sum fratribus meis, et peregrinus filiis matris meæ.
9 For the zeal of your house has eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached you are fallen on me.
Quoniam zelus domus tuæ comedit me: et opprobria exprobrantium tibi, ceciderunt super me.
10 When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach.
Et operui in ieiunio animam meam: et factum est in opprobrium mihi.
11 I made sackcloth also my garment; and I became a proverb to them.
Et posui vestimentum meum cilicium: et factus sum illis in parabolam.
12 They that sit in the gate speak against me; and I was the song of the drunkards.
Adversum me loquebantur qui sedebant in porta: et in me psallebant qui bibebant vinum.
13 But as for me, my prayer is to you, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of your mercy hear me, in the truth of your salvation.
Ego vero orationem meam ad te Domine: tempus beneplaciti Deus. In multitudine misericordiæ tuæ exaudi me, in veritate salutis tuæ:
14 Deliver me out of the mire, and let me not sink: let me be delivered from them that hate me, and out of the deep waters.
Eripe me de luto, ut non infigar: libera me ab iis, qui oderunt me, et de profundis aquarum.
15 Let not the flood overflow me, neither let the deep swallow me up, and let not the pit shut her mouth on me.
Non me demergat tempestas aquæ, neque absorbeat me profundum: neque urgeat super me puteus os suum.
16 Hear me, O LORD; for your loving kindness is good: turn to me according to the multitude of your tender mercies.
Exaudi me Domine, quoniam benigna est misericordia tua: secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum respice in me.
17 And hide not your face from your servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily.
Et ne avertas faciem tuam a puero tuo: quoniam tribulor, velociter exaudi me.
18 Draw near to my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of my enemies.
Intende animæ meæ, et libera eam: propter inimicos meos eripe me.
19 You have known my reproach, and my shame, and my dishonor: my adversaries are all before you.
Tu scis improperium meum, et confusionem meam, et reverentiam meam.
20 Reproach has broken my heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none.
In conspectu tuo sunt omnes qui tribulant me, improperium expectavit cor meum et miseriam. Et sustinui qui simul contristaretur, et non fuit: et qui consolaretur, et non inveni.
21 They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
Et dederunt in escam meam fel: et in siti mea potaverunt me aceto.
22 Let their table become a snare before them: and that which should have been for their welfare, let it become a trap.
Fiat mensa eorum coram ipsis in laqueum, et in retributiones, et in scandalum.
23 Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.
Obscurentur oculi eorum ne videant: et dorsum eorum semper incurva.
24 Pour out your indignation on them, and let your wrathful anger take hold of them.
Effunde super eos iram tuam: et furor iræ tuæ comprehendat eos.
25 Let their habitation be desolate; and let none dwell in their tents.
Fiat habitatio eorum deserta: et in tabernaculis eorum non sit qui inhabitet.
26 For they persecute him whom you have smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom you have wounded.
Quoniam quem tu percussisti, persecuti sunt: et super dolorem vulnerum meorum addiderunt.
27 Add iniquity to their iniquity: and let them not come into your righteousness.
Appone iniquitatem super iniquitatem eorum: et non intrent in iustitiam tuam.
28 Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.
Deleantur de Libro viventium: et cum iustis non scribantur.
29 But I am poor and sorrowful: let your salvation, O God, set me up on high.
Ego sum pauper et dolens: salus tua Deus suscepit me.
30 I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.
Laudabo nomen Dei cum cantico: et magnificabo eum in laude:
31 This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that has horns and hoofs.
Et placebit Deo super vitulum novellum: cornua producentem et ungulas.
32 The humble shall see this, and be glad: and your heart shall live that seek God.
Videant pauperes et lætentur: quærite Deum, et vivet anima vestra:
33 For the LORD hears the poor, and despises not his prisoners.
Quoniam exaudivit pauperes Dominus: et vinctos suos non despexit.
34 Let the heaven and earth praise him, the seas, and every thing that moves therein.
Laudent illum cæli et terra, mare, et omnia reptilia in eis.
35 For God will save Zion, and will build the cities of Judah: that they may dwell there, and have it in possession.
Quoniam Deus salvam faciet Sion: et ædificabuntur civitates Iuda. Et inhabitabunt ibi, et hereditate acquirent eam.
36 The seed also of his servants shall inherit it: and they that love his name shall dwell therein.
Et semen servorum eius possidebit eam, et qui diligunt nomen eius, habitabunt in ea.
