Livro dos Salmos 89

Biblia Maria	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Prece de Moisés, homem de Deus. Senhor, fostes nosso refúgio de geração em geração.	1 A maskil of Ethan the Ezrahite.
2 Antes que se formassem as montanhas, a terra e o universo, desde toda a eternidade vós sois Deus.	2 The promises of the LORD I will sing forever, proclaim your loyalty through all ages.
3 Reduzis o homem à poeira, e dizeis: “Filhos dos homens, retornai ao pó”,	3 For you said, "My love is established forever; my loyalty will stand as long as the heavens.
4 porque mil anos, diante de vós, são como o dia de ontem que já passou, como uma só vigília da noite.	4 I have made a covenant with my chosen one; I have sworn to David my servant:
5 Vós os arrebatais: eles são como um sonho da manhã, como a erva virente,	5 I will make your dynasty stand forever and establish your throne through all ages." Selah
6 que viceja e floresce de manhã, mas que à tarde é cortada e seca.	6 The heavens praise your marvels, LORD, your loyalty in the assembly of the holy ones.
7 Sim, somos consumidos pela vossa severidade, e acabrunhados pela vossa cólera.	7 Who in the skies ranks with the LORD? Who is like the LORD among the gods?
8 Colocastes diante de vós as nossas culpas, e nossos pecados ocultos à vista de vossos olhos.	8 A God dreaded in the council of the holy ones, greater and more awesome than all who sit there!
9 Ante a vossa ira, passaram todos os nossos dias. Nossos anos se dissiparam como um sopro.	9 LORD, God of hosts, who is like you? Mighty LORD, your loyalty is always present.
10 Setenta anos é o total de nossa vida, os mais fortes chegam aos oitenta. A maior parte deles, sofrimento e vaidade, porque o tempo passa depressa e desaparecemos.	10 You rule the raging sea; you still its swelling waves.
11 Quem avalia a força de vossa cólera, e mede a vossa ira com o temor que vos é devido?	11 You crushed Rahab with a mortal blow; your strong arm scattered your foes.
12 Ensinai-nos a bem contar os nossos dias, para alcançarmos o saber do coração.	12 Yours are the heavens, yours the earth; you founded the world and everything in it.
13 Voltai-vos, Senhor – quanto tempo tardareis? E sede propício a vossos servos.	13 Zaphon and Amanus you created; Tabor and Hermon rejoice in your name.
14 Cumulai-nos desde a manhã com as vossas misericórdias, para exultarmos alegres em toda a nossa vida.	14 Mighty your arm, strong your hand, your right hand is ever exalted.
15 Consolai-nos tantos dias quantos nos afligistes, tantos anos quantos nós sofremos.	15 Justice and judgment are the foundation of your throne; love and loyalty march before you.
16 Manifestai vossa obra aos vossos servidores, e a vossa glória aos seus filhos.	16 Happy the people who know you, LORD, who walk in the radiance of your face.
17 Que o beneplácito do Senhor, nosso Deus, repouse sobre nós. Favorecei as obras de nossas mãos. Sim, fazei prosperar o trabalho de nossas mãos.	17 In your name they sing joyfully all the day; at your victory they raise the festal shout.
	18 You are their majestic strength; by your favor our horn is exalted.
	19 Truly the LORD is our shield, the Holy One of Israel, our king!
	20 Once you spoke in vision; to your faithful ones you said: "I have set a leader over the warriors; I have raised up a hero from the army.
	21 I have chosen David, my servant; with my holy oil I have anointed him.
	22 My hand will be with him; my arm will make him strong.
	23 No enemy shall outwit him, nor shall the wicked defeat him.
	24 I will crush his foes before him, strike down those who hate him.
	25 My loyalty and love will be with him; through my name his horn will be exalted.
	26 I will set his hand upon the sea, his right hand upon the rivers.
	27 He shall cry to me,'You are my father, my God, the Rock that brings me victory!'
	28 I myself make him firstborn, Most High over the kings of the earth.
	29 Forever I will maintain my love for him; my covenant with him stands firm.
	30 I will establish his dynasty forever, his throne as the days of the heavens.
	31 If his descendants forsake my law, do not follow my decrees,
	32 If they fail to observe my statutes, do not keep my commandments,
	33 I will punish their crime with a rod and their guilt with lashes.
	34 But I will not take my love from him, nor will I betray my bond of loyalty.
	35 I will not violate my covenant; the promise of my lips I will not alter.
	36 By my holiness I swore once for all: I will never be false to David.
	37 His dynasty will continue forever, his throne, like the sun before me.
	38 Like the moon it will stand eternal, forever firm like the sky!" Selah
	39 But now you have rejected and spurned, been enraged at your anointed.
	40 You renounced the covenant with your servant, defiled his crown in the dust.
	41 You broke down all his defenses, left his strongholds in ruins.
	42 All who pass through seize plunder; his neighbors deride him.
	43 You have exalted the right hand of his foes, have gladdened all his enemies.
	44 You turned back his sharp sword, did not support him in battle.
	45 You brought to an end his splendor, hurled his throne to the ground.
	46 You cut short the days of his youth, covered him with shame. Selah
	47 How long, LORD? Will you stay hidden forever? Must your wrath smolder like fire?
	48 Remember how brief is my life, how frail the race you created!
	49 What mortal can live and not see death? Who can escape the power of Sheol? Selah
	50 Where are your promises of old, Lord, the loyalty sworn to David?
	51 Remember, Lord, the insults to your servants, how I bear all the slanders of the nations.
	52 Your enemies, LORD, insult your anointed; they insult my every endeavor.
	53 Blessed be the LORD forever! Amen and amen!
