1 in finem pro torcularibus filiis Core psalmus
2 Quam dilecta tabernacula tua Domine virtutum
3 concupiscit et defecit anima mea in atria Domini
cor meum et caro mea exultavit in Deum vivum
4 etenim passer invenit ÷sibi: domum
et turtur nidum sibi ubi ponat pullos suos
altaria tua Domine virtutum rex meus et Deus meus
5 beati qui habitant in domo tua
in saecula saeculorum laudabunt te diapsalma
6 beatus vir cui est auxilium abs te
ascensiones in corde suo disposuit
7 in valle lacrimarum in loco quem posuit
8 etenim benedictiones dabit legis dator
ibunt de virtute in virtutem videbitur Deus deorum in Sion
9 Domine Deus virtutum exaudi orationem meam
auribus percipe Deus Iacob diapsalma
10 protector noster aspice Deus
et respice in faciem christi tui
11 quia melior est dies una in atriis tuis super milia
elegi abiectus esse in domo Dei mei
magis quam habitare in tabernaculis peccatorum
12 quia misericordiam et veritatem ÷diligit: Deus
gratiam et gloriam dabit Dominus
13 non privabit bonis eos qui ambulant in innocentia
Domine virtutum beatus vir qui sperat in te
A Song or Psalm of Asaph.
1 Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.
9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
