Salmi 129

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Canticum ascensionum. Saepe expugnaverunt me a iuventute mea, dicat nunc Israel,	1 Blessed are all they that fear the Lord: that walk in his ways.
2 saepe expugnaverunt me a iuventute mea, etenim non potuerunt adversum me.	2 For thou shalt eat the labours of thy hands: blessed art thou, and it shall be well with thee.
3 Supra dorsum meum araverunt aratores, prolongaverunt sulcos suos.	3 Thy wife as a fruitful vine, on the sides of thy house.
4 Dominus autem iustus concidit cervices peccatorum.	4 Behold, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord.
5 Confundantur et convertantur retrorsum omnes, qui oderunt Sion.	5 May the Lord bless thee out of Sion: and mayest thou see the good things of Jerusalem all the days of thy life.
6 Fiant sicut fenum tectorum, quod, priusquam evellatur, exaruit;	6 And mayest thou see thy children's children, peace upon Israel.
7 de quo non implevit manum suam, qui metit, et sinum suum, qui manipulos colligit.
8 Et non dixerunt, qui praeteribant: “ Benedictio Domini super vos, benedicimus vobis in nomine Domini ”.
