1 canticum psalmi Asaph
2 Deus ne taceas ne sileas et non quiescas Deus
3 quia ecce inimici tui tumultuati sunt
et qui oderunt te levaverunt caput
4 contra populum tuum nequiter tractaverunt
et inierunt consilium adversum arcanum tuum
5 dixerunt venite et conteramus eos de gente
et non sit memoria nominis Israhel ultra
6 quoniam tractaverunt pariter contra te foedus pepigerunt
7 tabernacula Idumeae et Ismahelitarum
Moab et Aggareni
8 Gebal et Ammon et Amalech
Palestina cum habitatoribus Tyri
9 sed et Assur venit cum eis
facti sunt brachium filiorum Loth semper
10 fac illis sicut Madian et Sisarae
sicut Iabin in torrente Cison
11 contriti sunt in Aendor fuerunt quasi sterquilinium terrae
12 pone duces eorum sicut Oreb et Zeb
et Zebee et Salmana omnes principes eorum
13 qui dixerunt possideamus nobis pulchritudinem Dei
14 Deus meus pone eos ut rotam quasi stipulam ante faciem venti
15 quomodo ignis conburit silvam
et sicut flamma devorat montes
16 sic persequere eos in tempestate tua
et in turbine tuo conturba eos
17 imple facies eorum ignominia et quaerent nomen tuum Domine
18 confundantur et conturbentur usque in saeculum
et erubescant et pereant
19 et sciant quia nomen tuum est Dominus
solus tu Excelsus super omnem terram
A Psalm of Asaph.
1 God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.
3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.
4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.
5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course.
6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.
7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.
8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations.
