Psalms
Psalmus ipsi David, quarta sabbati. Deus ultionum Dominus; Deus ultionum libere egit.
The Lord is the God to whom revenge belongeth: the God of revenge hath acted freely.
Psalmo ipso Davide, quarto de sabbato. Deo de ultiones Domino; deo de ultiones libere age.
Exaltare, qui judicas terram; redde retributionem superbis.
Lift up thyself, thou that judgest the earth: render a reward to the proud.
Exalta, qui iudica terra; redde retributione ad superbo.
Usquequo peccatores, Domine, usquequo peccatores gloriabuntur;
How long shall sinners, O Lord: how long shall sinners glory?
Usquequo peccatores, Domino, usquequo peccatores glorior;
effabuntur et loquentur iniquitatem; loquentur omnes qui operantur injustitiam?
Shall they utter, and speak iniquity: shall all speak who work injustice?
Effoba et loque iniquitate; omni qui operor iniustitia loque?
Populum tuum, Domine, humiliaverunt, et hæreditatem tuam vexaverunt.
Thy people, O Lord, they have brought low: and they have afflicted thy inheritance.
Populo tuo, Domino, humilia, et haereditate tuo vexa.
Viduam et advenam interfecerunt, et pupillos occiderunt.
They have slain the widow and the stranger: and they have murdered the fatherless.
Vidua et advena interfice, et pupillo occide.
Et dixerunt: Non videbit Dominus, nec intelliget Deus Jacob.
And they have said: The Lord shall not see: neither shall the God of Jacob understand.
Et dic: non Domino vide, nec Deo Iacobo intellege.
Intelligite, insipientes in populo; et stulti, aliquando sapite.
Understand, ye senseless among the people: and, you fools, be wise at last.
Intellege, insipiente in populo; et stulto, aliquando sape.
Qui plantavit aurem non audiet? aut qui finxit oculum non considerat?
He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? or he that formed the eye, doth he not consider?
Qui planta aure non audi? Aut qui finge oculo non considera?
Qui corripit gentes non arguet, qui docet hominem scientiam?
He that chastiseth nations, shall he not rebuke: he that teacheth man knowledge?
Qui corripie gentes non argue, qui doce homine scientia?
Dominus scit cogitationes hominum, quoniam vanæ sunt.
The Lord knoweth the thoughts of men, that they are vain.
Domino sci cogitationes de homines, quia vana es.
Beatus homo quem tu erudieris, Domine, et de lege tua docueris eum:
Blessed is the man whom thou shalt instruct, O Lord: and shalt teach him out of thy law.
Beato homine te erudi quem, Domino, et de lege tuo doce illo:
ut mitiges ei a diebus malis, donec fodiatur peccatori fovea.
That thou mayst give him rest from the evil days: till a pit be dug for the wicked.
Ut mitiga ad illo ab dies malo, usque que fovea ad peccatore fodie.
Quia non repellet Dominus plebem suam, et hæreditatem suam non derelinquet,
For the Lord will not cast off his people: neither will he forsake his own inheritance.
Quia non Domino repelle plebe suo, et haereditate suo non derelinque,
quoadusque justitia convertatur in judicium: et qui juxta illam, omnes qui recto sunt corde.
Until justice be turned into judgment: and they that are near it are all the upright in heart.
Et quoadus iustitia converte in iudicio: et qui juxta illa, omni qui rectus es corde.
Quis consurget mihi adversus malignantes? aut quis stabit mecum adversus operantes iniquitatem?
Who shall rise up for me against the evildoers? or who shall stand with me against the workers of iniquity?
Qui consurge ad me contra maligna? Aut qui sta mecum contra operor iniquitate?
Nisi quia Dominus adjuvit me, paulominus habitasset in inferno anima mea.
Unless the Lord had been my helper, my soul had almost dwelt in hell.
Nisi quia Domino adiuva me, paulomino habita in inferno anima meo.
Si dicebam: Motus est pes meus: misericordia tua, Domine, adjuvabat me.
If I said: My foot is moved: thy mercy, O Lord, assisted me.
Si dic: motu es pede meo: misericordia tuo, Domino, adiuva me.
Secundum multitudinem dolorum meorum in corde meo, consolationes tuæ lætificaverunt animam meam.
According to the multitude of my sorrows in my heart, thy comforts have given joy to my soul.
Secundo multitudine de dolores meo in corde meo, consolationes tuo laetifica anima meo.
Numquid adhæret tibi sedes iniquitatis, qui fingis laborem in præcepto?
Doth the seat of iniquity stick to thee, who framest labour in commandment?
Numquid adhaere ad te sede de iniquitate, qui finge labore in praecepto?
Captabunt in animam justi, et sanguinem innocentem condemnabunt.
They will hunt after the soul of the just, and will condemn innocent blood.
Capta in anima iusto, et sanguine innocente condemna.
Et factus est mihi Dominus in refugium, et Deus meus in adjutorium spei meæ.
But the Lord is my refuge: and my God the help of my hope.
Et facto es ad me Domino in refugio, et Deo meo in adiutorio de spe meo.
Et reddet illis iniquitatem ipsorum, et in malitia eorum disperdet eos: disperdet illos Dominus Deus noster.
And he will render them their iniquity: and in their malice he will destroy them: the Lord our God will destroy them.
Et redde ad illos iniquitate ipso, et in malitia de illos disperde illos: Domino Deo nostro disperde illos.
