Psalm 107 (108)

1 Canticum Psalmi, ipsi David.

1 A canticle of a psalm for David himself.

2 Paratum cor meum, Deus, paratum cor meum ; cantabo, et psallam in gloria mea.

2 My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will sing, and will give praise, with my glory.

3 Exsurge, gloria mea ; exsurge, psalterium et cithara ; exsurgam diluculo.

3 Arise, my glory; arise, psaltery and harp: I will arise in the morning early.

4 Confitebor tibi in populis, Domine, et psallam tibi in nationibus :

4 I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: and I will sing unto thee among the nations.

5 quia magna est super cælos misericordia tua, et usque ad nubes veritas tua.

5 For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth even unto the clouds.

6 Exaltare super cælos, Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua :

6 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory over all the earth:

7 ut liberentur dilecti tui. Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.

7 That thy beloved may be delivered. Save with thy right hand and hear me.

8 Deus locutus est in sancto suo : Exsultabo, et dividam Sichimam ; et convallem tabernaculorum dimetiar.

8 God hath spoken in his holiness. I will rejoice, and I will divide Sichem and I will mete out the vale of tabernacles.

9 Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses, et Ephraim susceptio capitis mei. Juda rex meus ;

9 Galaad is mine: and Manasses is mine and Ephraim the protection of my head. Juda is my king:

10 Moab lebes spei meæ : in Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum ; mihi alienigenæ amici facti sunt.

10 Moab the pot of my hope. Over Edom I will stretch out my shoe: the aliens are become my friends.

11 Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam ? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam ?

11 Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?

12 nonne tu, Deus, qui repulisti nos ? et non exibis, Deus, in virtutibus nostris ?

12 Wilt not thou, O God, who hast cast us off? and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our armies?

13 Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione, quia vana salus hominis.

13 O grant us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.

14 In Deo faciemus virtutem ; et ipse ad nihilum deducet inimicos nostros.

14 Through God we shall do mightily: and he will bring our enemies to nothing.
