Psalms 103

NEW JERUSALEM	VULGATA
1 [Of David] Bless Yahweh, my soul, from the depths of my being, his holy name;	1 Ipsi David. Benedic, anima mea, Domino : Domine Deus meus, magnificatus es vehementer. Confessionem et decorem induisti,
2 bless Yahweh, my soul, never forget al his acts of kindness.	2 amictus lumine sicut vestimento. Extendens cælum sicut pellem,
3 He forgives al your offences, cures al your diseases,	3 qui tegis aquis superiora ejus : qui ponis nubem ascensum tuum ; qui ambulas super pennas ventorum :
4 he redeems your life from the abyss, crowns you with faithful love and tenderness;	4 qui facis angelos tuos spiritus, et ministros tuos ignem urentem.
5 he contents you with good things al your life, renews your youth like an eagle's.	5 Qui fundasti terram super stabilitatem suam : non inclinabitur in sæculum sæculi.
6 Yahweh acts with uprightness, with justice to all who are oppressed;	6 Abyssus sicut vestimentum amictus ejus ; super montes stabunt aquæ.
7 he revealed to Moses his ways, his great deeds to the children of Israel.	7 Ab increpatione tua fugient ; a voce tonitrui tui formidabunt.
8 Yahweh is tenderness and pity, slow to anger and rich in faithful love;	8 Ascendunt montes, et descendunt campi, in locum quem fundasti eis.
9 his indignation does not last for ever, nor his resentment remain for al time;	9 Terminum posuisti quem non transgredientur, neque convertentur operire terram.
10 he does not treat us as our sins deserve, nor repay us as befits our offences.	10 Qui emittis fontes in convallibus ; inter medium montium pertransibunt aquæ.
11 As the height of heaven above earth, so strong is his faithful love for those who fear him.	11 Potabunt omnes bestiæ agri ; expectabunt onagri in siti sua.
12 As the distance of east from west, so far from us does he put our faults.	12 Super ea volucres cæli habitabunt ; de medio petrarum dabunt voces.
13 As tenderly as a father treats his children, so Yahweh treats those who fear him;	13 Rigans montes de superioribus suis ; de fructu operum tuorum satiabitur terra :
14 he knows of what we are made, he remembers that we are dust.	14 producens f?num jumentis, et herbam servituti hominum, ut educas panem de terra,
15 As for a human person -- his days are like grass, he blooms like the wild flowers;	15 et vinum lætificet cor hominis : ut exhilaret faciem in oleo, et panis cor hominis confirmet.
16 as soon as the wind blows he is gone, never to be seen there again.	16 Saturabuntur ligna campi, et cedri Libani quas plantavit :
17 But Yahweh's faithful love for those who fear him is from eternity and for ever; and his saving justiceto their children's children;	17 illic passeres nidificabunt : herodii domus dux est eorum.
18 as long as they keep his covenant, and careful y obey his precepts.	18 Montes excelsi cervis ; petra refugium herinaciis.
19 Yahweh has fixed his throne in heaven, his sovereign power rules over all.	19 Fecit lunam in tempora ; sol cognovit occasum suum.
20 Bless Yahweh, al his angels, mighty warriors who fulfil his commands, attentive to the sound of hiswords.	20 Posuisti tenebras, et facta est nox ; in ipsa pertransibunt omnes bestiæ silvæ :
21 Bless Yahweh, al his armies, servants who fulfil his wishes.	21 catuli leonum rugientes ut rapiant, et quærant a Deo escam sibi.
22 Bless Yahweh, al his works, in every place where he rules. Bless Yahweh, my soul.	22 Ortus est sol, et congregati sunt, et in cubilibus suis collocabuntur.
	23 Exibit homo ad opus suum, et ad operationem suam usque ad vesperum.
	24 Quam magnificata sunt opera tua, Domine ! omnia in sapientia fecisti ; impleta est terra possessione tua.
	25 Hoc mare magnum et spatiosum manibus ; illic reptilia quorum non est numerus : animalia pusilla cum magnis.
	26 Illic naves pertransibunt ; draco iste quem formasti ad illudendum ei.
	27 Omnia a te expectant ut des illis escam in tempore.
	28 Dante te illis, colligent ; aperiente te manum tuam, omnia implebuntur bonitate.
	29 Avertente autem te faciem, turbabuntur ; auferes spiritum eorum, et deficient, et in pulverem suum revertentur.
	30 Emittes spiritum tuum, et creabuntur, et renovabis faciem terræ.
	31 Sit gloria Domini in sæculum ; lætabitur Dominus in operibus suis.
	32 Qui respicit terram, et facit eam tremere ; qui tangit montes, et fumigant.
	33 Cantabo Domino in vita mea ; psallam Deo meo quamdiu sum.
	34 Jucundum sit ei eloquium meum ; ego vero delectabor in Domino.
	35 Deficiant peccatores a terra, et iniqui, ita ut non sint. Benedic, anima mea, Domino.
