NEW JERUSALEMVULGATA
1 [Song Psalm Of Asaph] God, do not remain silent, do not stay quiet or unmoved, God!1 In finem, pro torcularibus filiis Core. Psalmus.
2 See how your enemies are in uproar, how those who hate you are rearing their heads.2 Quam dilecta tabernacula tua, Domine virtutum !
3 They are laying plans against your people, conspiring against those you cherish;3 Concupiscit, et deficit anima mea in atria Domini ;
cor meum et caro mea exsultaverunt in Deum vivum.
4 they say, 'Come, let us annihilate them as a nation, the name of Israel shall be remembered no more!'4 Etenim passer invenit sibi domum,
et turtur nidum sibi, ubi ponat pullos suos :
altaria tua, Domine virtutum,
rex meus, et Deus meus.
5 They conspire with a single mind, they conclude an al iance against you,5 Beati qui habitant in domo tua, Domine ;
in sæcula sæculorum laudabunt te.
6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites, Moab and the Hagrites,6 Beatus vir cujus est auxilium abs te :
ascensiones in corde suo disposuit,
7 Gebal, Ammon, Amalek, Philistia and the Tyrians;7 in valle lacrimarum, in loco quem posuit.
8 even Assyria has joined them to reinforce the children of Lot.Pause8 Etenim benedictionem dabit legislator ;
ibunt de virtute in virtutem :
videbitur Deus deorum in Sion.
9 Treat them like Midian and Sisera, like Jabin at the river Kishon;9 Domine Deus virtutum, exaudi orationem meam ;
auribus percipe, Deus Jacob.
10 wiped out at En-Dor, they served to manure the ground.10 Protector noster, aspice, Deus,
et respice in faciem christi tui.
11 Treat their leaders like Oreb and Zeeb, al their commanders like Zebah and Zalmunna,11 Quia melior est dies una in atriis tuis super millia ;
elegi abjectus esse in domo Dei mei
magis quam habitare in tabernaculis peccatorum.
12 for they said, 'Let us take for ourselves God's settlements.'12 Quia misericordiam et veritatem diligit Deus :
gratiam et gloriam dabit Dominus.
13 My God, treat them like thistledown, like chaff at the mercy of the wind.13 Non privabit bonis eos qui ambulant in innocentia :
Domine virtutum, beatus homo qui sperat in te.
14 As fire devours a forest, as a flame sets mountains ablaze,
15 so drive them away with your tempest, by your whirlwind fill them with terror.
16 Shame written al over their faces, let them seek your name, Yahweh!
17 Dishonour and terror be always theirs, death also and destruction.
18 Let them know that you alone bear the name of Yahweh, Most High over al the earth.
