< Psalmorum 92 >
1 psalmus cantici in die sabbati bonum est confiteri Domino et psallere nomini tuo Altissime
A psalm. A song; for the sabbath day. It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praise to your name, O Most High,
2 ad adnuntiandum mane misericordiam tuam et veritatem tuam per noctem
to declare your love in the morning, and your faithfulness in the night,
3 in decacordo psalterio cum cantico in cithara
with voice and a ten-stringed harp, with music that throbs on the lyre.
4 quia delectasti me Domine in factura tua et in operibus manuum tuarum exultabo
For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord, at the work of your hands I will ring out my joy.
5 quam magnificata sunt opera tua Domine nimis profundae factae sunt cogitationes tuae
How great are your works, O Lord; how deep are your thoughts!
6 vir insipiens non cognoscet et stultus non intelleget haec
The insensitive cannot know, nor can a fool understand,
7 cum exorti fuerint peccatores sicut faenum et apparuerint omnes qui operantur iniquitatem ut intereant in saeculum saeculi
that, though the wicked flourish like grass, and evildoers all blossom, they will perish forever.
8 tu autem Altissimus in aeternum Domine
But you are exalted forever.
9 quoniam ecce inimici tui Domine; quoniam ecce inimici tui peribunt et dispergentur omnes qui operantur iniquitatem
For see! Your enemies, Lord For see! Your enemies perish, all evildoers are scattered.
10 et exaltabitur sicut unicornis cornu meum et senectus mea in misericordia uberi
But you lift me to honour, and anoint me afresh with oil.
11 et despexit oculus meus inimicis meis et insurgentibus in me malignantibus audiet auris mea
My eyes will feast on my foes, and my ears will hear of the doom of the wicked.
12 iustus ut palma florebit ut cedrus Libani multiplicabitur
The righteous will sprout like the palm, will grow like a cedar of Lebanon.
13 plantati in domo Domini in atriis Dei nostri florebunt
In the house of the Lord are they planted, in the courts of our God they will sprout.
14 adhuc multiplicabuntur in senecta uberi et bene patientes erunt
They will still bear fruit in old age, all sappy and fresh will they be
15 ut adnuntient quoniam rectus Dominus Deus noster et non est iniquitas in eo
So they proclaim the Lord to be just, my rock, in whom is no wrong.
