Psalmorum 108
1 canticum psalmi David paratum cor meum Deus paratum cor meum cantabo et psallam in gloria mea
“A psalm of David.” O God! my heart is strengthened! I will sing and give thanks.
2 exsurge psalterium et cithara exsurgam diluculo
Awake, my soul! awake, my psaltery and harp! I will wake with the early dawn.
3 confitebor tibi in populis Domine et psallam tibi in nationibus
I will praise thee, O LORD! among the nations; I will sing to thee among the peoples!
4 quia magna super caelos misericordia tua et usque ad nubes veritas tua
For thy mercy reacheth to the heavens, And thy truth above the clouds.
5 exaltare super caelos Deus et super omnem terram gloria tua
Exalt thyself, 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 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 promiseth in his holiness; I will rejoice; I shall yet divide Shechem, And measure out the valley of Succoth;
8 meus est Galaad et meus est Manasse et Effraim susceptio capitis mei Iuda rex meus
Gilead shall be mine, and mine Manasseh; Ephraim shall be my helmet, And Judah my sceptre.
9 Moab lebes spei meae in Idumeam extendam calciamentum meum mihi alienigenae amici facti sunt
Moab shall be my washbowl; Upon Edom shall I cast my shoe; I shall triumph over Philistia.
10 quis deducet me in civitatem munitam quis deducet me usque in Idumeam
Who will bring me to the strong city? Who will lead me into Edom?
11 nonne tu Deus qui reppulisti nos et non exibis Deus in virtutibus nostris
Wilt not thou, O God! who didst forsake us, Who didst not go forth with our armies?
12 da nobis auxilium de tribulatione quia vana salus hominis
Give us thine aid in our distress, 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.
