Psalmi 48

NOVA VULGATA	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Canticum. Psalmus. Filiorum Core.	1 [Song Psalm Of the sons of Korah] Great is Yahweh and most worthy of praise in the city of our God,the holy mountain,
2 Magnus Dominus et laudabilis nimis in civitate Dei nostri.	2 towering in beauty, the joy of the whole world: Mount Zion in the heart of the north, the settlement ofthe great king;
3 Mons sanctus eius collis speciosus, exsultatio universae terrae. Mons Sion, extrema aquilonis, civitas regis magni.	3 God himself among its palaces has proved himself its bulwark.
4 Deus in domibus eius notus factus est ut refugium.	4 For look, kings made al iance, together they advanced;
5 Quoniam ecce reges congregati sunt, convenerunt in unum.	5 without a second glance, when they saw, they panicked and fled away.
6 Ipsi cum viderunt, sic admirati sunt, conturbati sunt, diffugerunt;	6 Trembling seized them on the spot, pains like those of a woman in labour;
7 illic tremor apprehendit eos, dolores ut parturientis.	7 it was the east wind, that wrecker of ships from Tarshish.
8 In spiritu orientis conteres naves Tharsis.	8 What we had heard we saw for ourselves in the city of our God, in the city of Yahweh Sabaoth, whichGod has established for ever.Pause
9 Sicut audivimus, sic vidimus in civitate Domini virtutum, in civitate Dei nostri; Deus fundavit eam in aeternum.	9 We reflect on your faithful love, God, in your temple!
10 Recogitamus, Deus, misericordiam tuam in medio templi tui.	10 Both your name and your praise, God, are over the whole wide world. Your right hand is ful of savingjustice,
11 Secundum nomen tuum, Deus, sic et laus tua in fines terrae; iustitia plena est dextera tua.	11 Mount Zion rejoices, the daughters of Judah delight because of your saving justice.
12 Laetetur mons Sion, et exsultent filiae Iudae propter iudicia tua.	12 Go round Zion, walk right through her, count her bastions,
13 Circumdate Sion et complectimini eam, numerate turres eius.	13 admire her walls, examine her palaces, to tel future generations
14 Ponite corda vestra in virtute eius et percurrite domos eius, ut enarretis in progenie altera.	14 that such is God; our God for ever and ever, he is our guide!
15 Quoniam hic est Deus, Deus noster in aeternum et in saeculum saeculi; ipse ducet nos in saecula.
