< 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 fixed, O God: I will sing, yea, I will sing psalms, even [with] my glory.
2 exsurge psalterium et cithara exsurgam diluculo
Awake, lute and harp: I will wake the dawn.
3 confitebor tibi in populis Domine et psallam tibi in nationibus
I will give thee thanks among the peoples, O Jehovah; of thee will I sing psalms among the nations:
4 quia magna super caelos misericordia tua et usque ad nubes veritas tua
For thy loving-kindness is great above the heavens, and thy truth is unto the clouds.
5 exaltare super caelos Deus et super omnem terram gloria tua
Be thou exalted above the heavens, O God, and thy glory above all the earth.
6 ut liberentur dilecti tui salvum fac dextera tua et exaudi me
That thy beloved ones may be delivered: save with thy right hand, and answer me.
7 Deus locutus est in sancto suo exaltabor et dividam Sicima et convallem tabernaculorum dimetiar
God hath spoken in his holiness: I will exult, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8 meus est Galaad et meus est Manasse et Effraim susceptio capitis mei Iuda rex meus
Gilead is mine, Manasseh is mine, and Ephraim is the strength of my head; Judah is my law-giver;
9 Moab lebes spei meae in Idumeam extendam calciamentum meum mihi alienigenae amici facti sunt
Moab is my wash-pot; upon Edom will I cast my sandal; over Philistia will I shout aloud.
10 quis deducet me in civitatem munitam quis deducet me usque in Idumeam
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me unto Edom?
11 nonne tu Deus qui reppulisti nos et non exibis Deus in virtutibus nostris
[Wilt] not [thou], O God, who didst cast us off? and didst not go forth, O God, with our armies?
12 da nobis auxilium de tribulatione quia vana salus hominis
Give us help from trouble; for vain is man's deliverance.
13 in Deo faciemus virtutem et ipse ad nihilum deducet inimicos nostros
Through God we shall do valiantly; and he it is that will tread down our adversaries.
