< Psalmorum 108 >
1 Canticum Psalmi David. Paratum cor meum Deus, paratum cor meum: cantabo, et psallam in gloria mea.
A SONG. A PSALM OF DAVID. My heart is prepared, O God, I sing, indeed, I sing praise, also my glory.
2 Exurge gloria mea, exurge psalterium, et cithara: exurgam diluculo.
Awake, stringed instrument and harp, I awake the dawn.
3 Confitebor tibi in populis Domine: et psallam tibi in nationibus.
I thank You among peoples, O YHWH, And I praise You among the nations.
4 Quia magna est super caelos misericordia tua: et usque ad nubes veritas tua:
For Your kindness [is] great above the heavens, And Your truth to the clouds.
5 Exaltare super caelos Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua:
Be exalted above the heavens, O God, And Your glory above all the earth.
6 ut liberentur dilecti tui. Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me:
That Your beloved ones may be delivered, Save [with] Your right hand, and answer us.
7 Deus locutus est in sancto suo: Exultabo, et dividam Sichimam, et convallem tabernaculorum dimetiar.
God has spoken in His holiness: I exult, I apportion Shechem, And I measure the Valley of Succoth,
8 Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses: et Ephraim susceptio capitis mei. Iuda rex meus:
Gilead [is] Mine, Manasseh [is] Mine, And Ephraim [is] the strength of My head, Judah [is] My lawgiver,
9 Moab lebes spei meae. In Idumaeam extendam calceamentum meum: mihi alienigenae amici facti sunt.
Moab [is] a pot for My washing, On Edom I cast My shoe, Over Philistia I habitually shout.
10 Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam? quis deducet me usque in Idumaeam?
Who brings me [into] the fortified city? Who has led me to Edom?
11 Nonne tu Deus, qui repulisti nos, et non exibis Deus in virtutibus nostris?
Have You not, O God, cast us off? And You do not go out, O God, with our hosts!
12 Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione: quia vana salus hominis.
Give to us help from adversity, And the salvation of man is vain.
13 In Deo faciemus virtutem: et ipse ad nihilum deducet inimicos nostros.
We do mightily in God, And He treads down our adversaries!
