Psalmorum 108

1 Canticum Psalmi, ipsi David. Paratum cor meum, Deus, paratum cor meum; cantabo, et psallam in gloria mea.

A Song [or] Psalm of David. O God, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory.

2 Exsurge, gloria mea; exsurge, psalterium et cithara; exsurgam diluculo.

Awake, psaltery and harp: I [myself] will awake early.

3 Confitebor tibi in populis, Domine, et psallam tibi in nationibus:

I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises to thee among the nations.

4 quia magna est super cælos misericordia tua, et usque ad nubes veritas tua.

For thy mercy [is] great above the heavens: and thy truth [reacheth] to the clouds.

5 Exaltare super cælos, Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua:

Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth;

6 ut liberentur dilecti tui. Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.

That thy beloved may be delivered: save [with] thy right hand, and answer me.

7 Deus locutus est in sancto suo: Exsultabo, et dividam Sichimam; et convallem tabernaculorum dimetiar.

God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and measure out the valley of Succoth.

8 Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses, et Ephraim susceptio capitis mei. Juda rex meus;

Gilead [is] mine; Manasseh [is] mine; Ephraim also [is] the strength of my head; Judah [is] my lawgiver;

9 Moab lebes spei meæ: in Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum; mihi alienigenæ amici facti sunt.

Moab [is] my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe; over Philistia will I triumph.

10 Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam?

Who will bring me into the strong city: who will lead me into Edom?

11 nonne tu, Deus, qui repulisti nos? et non exibis, Deus, in virtutibus nostris?

[Wilt] not [thou], O God, [who] hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?

12 Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione, quia vana salus hominis.

Give us help from trouble: for vain [is] the help of man.

13 In Deo faciemus virtutem; et ipse ad nihilum deducet inimicos nostros.

Through God we shall do valiantly: for he will tread down our enemies.
