Psalms 59

New American Bible	Bibbia Vulgata Clementina
¹ For the director. Do not destroy. A miktam of David, when Saul sent people to watch his house and kill him.	¹ In finem, pro his qui immutabuntur, in tituli inscriptionem ipsi David, in doctrinam,
² Rescue me from my enemies, my God; lift me out of reach of my foes.	² cum succendit Mesopotamiam Syriæ et Sobal, et convertit Joab, et percussit Idumæam in valle Salinarum duodecim millia.
³ Deliver me from evildoers; from the bloodthirsty save me.	³ Deus, repulisti nos, et destruxisti nos ; iratus es, et misertus es nobis.
⁴ They have set an ambush for my life; the powerful conspire against me. For no offense or misdeed of mine, LORD,	⁴ Commovisti terram, et conturbasti eam ; sana contritiones ejus, quia commota est.
⁵ for no fault they hurry to take up arms. Come near and see my plight!	⁵ Ostendisti populo tuo dura ; potasti nos vino compunctionis.
⁶ You, LORD of hosts, are the God of Israel! Awake! Punish all the nations. Have no mercy on these worthless traitors. Selah	⁶ Dedisti metuentibus te significationem, ut fugiant a facie arcus ; ut liberentur dilecti tui.
⁷ Each evening they return, growling like dogs, prowling the city.	⁷ Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.
⁸ Their mouths pour out insult; sharp words are on their lips. They say: "Who is there to hear?"	⁸ Deus locutus est in sancto suo : lætabor, et partibor Sichimam ; et convallem tabernaculorum metibor.
⁹ You, LORD, laugh at them; you deride all the nations.	⁹ Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses ; et Ephraim fortitudo capitis mei. Juda rex meus ;
¹⁰ My strength, for you I watch; you, God, are my fortress,	¹⁰ Moab olla spei meæ. In Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum : mihi alienigenæ subditi sunt.
¹¹ my loving God.	¹¹ Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam ? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam ?
¹² May God go before me, and show me my fallen foes. Slay them, God, lest they deceive my people. Shake them by your power; Lord, our shield, bring them down.	¹² nonne tu, Deus, qui repulisti nos ? et non egredieris, Deus, in virtutibus nostris ?
¹³ For the sinful words of their mouths and lips let them be caught in their pride. For the lies they have told under oath	¹³ Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione, quia vana salus hominis.
¹⁴ destroy them in anger, destroy till they are no more. Then people will know God rules over Jacob, yes, even to the ends of the earth. Selah	¹⁴ In Deo faciemus virtutem ; et ipse ad nihilum deducet tribulantes nos.
¹⁵ Each evening they return, growling like dogs, prowling the city.
¹⁶ They roam about as scavengers; if they are not filled, they howl.
¹⁷ But I shall sing of your strength, extol your love at dawn, For you are my fortress, my refuge in time of trouble.
¹⁸ My strength, your praise I will sing; you, God, are my fortress, my loving God.
