Salmi 72

BIBBIA CEI 2008	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Di Salomone.O Dio, affida al re il tuo diritto,al figlio di re la tua giustizia;	1 A Psalm of Asaph. How good is God to Israel, to those who are upright in heart.
2 egli giudichi il tuo popolo secondo giustiziae i tuoi poveri secondo il diritto.	2 But my feet were nearly moved; my steps had nearly slipped.
3 Le montagne portino pace al popoloe le colline giustizia.	3 For I was zealous over the iniquitous, seeing the peacefulness of sinners.
4 Ai poveri del popolo renda giustizia,salvi i figli del miseroe abbatta l’oppressore.	4 For they have no respect for their death, nor do they have support in their wounds.
5 Ti faccia durare quanto il sole,come la luna, di generazione in generazione.	5 They are not with the hardships of men, nor will they be scourged with men.
6 Scenda come pioggia sull’erba,come acqua che irrora la terra.	6 Therefore, arrogance has held on to them. They have been covered with their iniquity and impiety.
7 Nei suoi giorni fiorisca il giustoe abbondi la pace,finché non si spenga la luna.	7 Their iniquity has proceeded, as if from fat. They have parted from the affection of the heart.
8 E dòmini da mare a mare,dal fiume sino ai confini della terra.	8 They have thought and spoken wickedness. They have spoken iniquity in high places.
9 A lui si pieghino le tribù del deserto,mordano la polvere i suoi nemici.	9 They have set their mouth against heaven, and their tongue has traversed the earth.
10 I re di Tarsis e delle isole portino tributi,i re di Saba e di Seba offrano doni.	10 Therefore, my people will be converted here, and fullness of days will be found in them.
11 Tutti i re si prostrino a lui,lo servano tutte le genti.	11 And they said, “How would God know?” and, “Isn’t there knowledge in high places?”
12 Perché egli libererà il misero che invocae il povero che non trova aiuto.	12 Behold, these are sinners, and, abounding in this age, they have obtained riches.
13 Abbia pietà del debole e del miseroe salvi la vita dei miseri.	13 And I said: So then, it is without purpose that I have justified my heart and washed my hands among the innocent.
14 Li riscatti dalla violenza e dal sopruso,sia prezioso ai suoi occhi il loro sangue.	14 And I have been scourged all day long, and I have received my chastisement in the mornings.
15 Viva e gli sia dato oro di Arabia,si preghi sempre per lui,sia benedetto ogni giorno.	15 If I were to say that I would explain this: Behold, I would condemn this nation of your sons.
16 Abbondi il frumento nel paese,ondeggi sulle cime dei monti;il suo frutto fiorisca come il Libano,la sua messe come l’erba dei campi.	16 I considered, so that I might know this. It is a hardship before me,
17 Il suo nome duri in eterno,davanti al sole germogli il suo nome.In lui siano benedette tutte le stirpi della terrae tutte le genti lo dicano beato.	17 until I may enter into the Sanctuary of God, and understand it to its last part.
18 Benedetto il Signore, Dio d’Israele:egli solo compie meraviglie.	18 So, because of deceitfulness, truly, you have placed it before them. While they were being lifted up, you were casting them down.
19 E benedetto il suo nome glorioso per sempre:della sua gloria sia piena tutta la terra.Amen, amen.	19 How have they been brought to desolation? They have suddenly failed. They have perished because of their iniquity.
20 Qui finiscono le preghiere di Davide, figlio di Iesse.	20 As a dream is to those who awaken, O Lord, so will you reduce their image to nothing in your city.
	21 For my heart has been inflamed, and my temperament has been changed.
	22 And so, I have been reduced to nothing, and I did not know it.
	23 I have become like a beast of burden to you, and I am always with you.
	24 You have held my right hand. And in your will, you have conducted me, and with your glory, you have taken me up.
	25 For what is there for me in heaven? And what do I wish for on earth before you?
	26 My body has failed, and my heart: O God of my heart, and God my portion, into eternity.
	27 For behold, those who put themselves far from you will perish. You have perished all those who fornicate away from you.
	28 But it is good for me to adhere to God, to put my hope in the Lord God, so that I may announce all your prophecies, at the gates of the daughter of Zion.
