< Psalmorum 94 >

1 Psalmus ipsi David, quarta sabbati. [Deus ultionum Dominus; Deus ultionum libere egit.
O LORD God, to whom vengeance belongeth; O God, to whom vengeance belongeth, shew thyself.
2 Exaltare, qui judicas terram; redde retributionem superbis.
Lift up thyself, thou judge of the earth: render a reward to the proud.
3 Usquequo peccatores, Domine, usquequo peccatores gloriabuntur;
LORD, how long shall the wicked, how long shall the wicked triumph?
4 effabuntur et loquentur iniquitatem; loquentur omnes qui operantur injustitiam?
[How long] shall they utter [and] speak hard things? [and] all the workers of iniquity boast themselves?
5 Populum tuum, Domine, humiliaverunt, et hæreditatem tuam vexaverunt.
They break in pieces thy people, O LORD, and afflict thine heritage.
6 Viduam et advenam interfecerunt, et pupillos occiderunt.
They slay the widow and the stranger, and murder the fatherless.
7 Et dixerunt: Non videbit Dominus, nec intelliget Deus Jacob.
Yet they say, The LORD shall not see, neither shall the God of Jacob regard [it].
8 Intelligite, insipientes in populo; et stulti, aliquando sapite.
Understand, ye brutish among the people: and [ye] fools, when will ye be wise?
9 Qui plantavit aurem non audiet? aut qui finxit oculum non considerat?
He that planted the ear, shall he not hear? he that formed the eye, shall he not see?
10 Qui corripit gentes non arguet, qui docet hominem scientiam?
He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, [shall not he know]?
11 Dominus scit cogitationes hominum, quoniam vanæ sunt.
The LORD knoweth the thoughts of man, that they [are] vanity.
12 Beatus homo quem tu erudieris, Domine, et de lege tua docueris eum:
Blessed [is] the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;
13 ut mitiges ei a diebus malis, donec fodiatur peccatori fovea.
That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked.
14 Quia non repellet Dominus plebem suam, et hæreditatem suam non derelinquet,
For the LORD will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.
15 quoadusque justitia convertatur in judicium: et qui juxta illam, omnes qui recto sunt corde.
But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it.
16 Quis consurget mihi adversus malignantes? aut quis stabit mecum adversus operantes iniquitatem?
Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? [or] who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?
17 Nisi quia Dominus adjuvit me, paulominus habitasset in inferno anima mea. (questioned)
Unless the LORD [had been] my help, my soul had almost dwelt in silence.
18 Si dicebam: Motus est pes meus: misericordia tua, Domine, adjuvabat me.
When I said, My foot slippeth; thy mercy, O LORD, held me up.
19 Secundum multitudinem dolorum meorum in corde meo, consolationes tuæ lætificaverunt animam meam.
In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul.
20 Numquid adhæret tibi sedes iniquitatis, qui fingis laborem in præcepto?
Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?
21 Captabunt in animam justi, et sanguinem innocentem condemnabunt.
They gather themselves together against the soul of the righteous, and condemn the innocent blood.
22 Et factus est mihi Dominus in refugium, et Deus meus in adjutorium spei meæ.
But the LORD is my defence; and my God [is] the rock of my refuge.
23 Et reddet illis iniquitatem ipsorum, et in malitia eorum disperdet eos: disperdet illos Dominus Deus noster.]
And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; [yea], the LORD our God shall cut them off.
