< Psalms 108 >
1 O god, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.
Canticum Psalmi David. Paratum cor meum Deus, paratum cor meum: cantabo, et psallam in gloria mea.
2 Awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
Exurge gloria mea, exurge psalterium, et cithara: exurgam diluculo.
3 I will praise you, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto you among the nations.
Confitebor tibi in populis Domine: et psallam tibi in nationibus.
4 For your mercy is great above the heavens: and your truth reachs unto the clouds.
Quia magna est super caelos misericordia tua: et usque ad nubes veritas tua:
5 Be you exalted, O God, above the heavens: and your glory above all the earth;
Exaltare super caelos Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua:
6 That your beloved may be delivered: save with your right hand, and answer me.
ut liberentur dilecti tui. Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me:
7 God has spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
Deus locutus est in sancto suo: Exultabo, et dividam Sichimam, et convallem tabernaculorum dimetiar.
8 Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses: et Ephraim susceptio capitis mei. Iuda rex meus:
9 Moab is my pot for washing; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.
Moab lebes spei meae. In Idumaeam extendam calceamentum meum: mihi alienigenae amici facti sunt.
10 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumaeam?
11 Will not you, O God, who have cast us off? and will not you, O God, go forth with our hosts?
Nonne tu Deus, qui repulisti nos, et non exibis Deus in virtutibus nostris?
12 Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione: quia vana salus hominis.
13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
In Deo faciemus virtutem: et ipse ad nihilum deducet inimicos nostros.
