| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A psalm for Asaph. The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken: and he hath called the earth. From the rising of the sun, to the going down thereof: | Psalmus Asaph. Deus deorum Dominus locutus est, et vocavit terram a solis ortu usque ad occasum. |
| 2 | Out of Sion the loveliness of his beauty. | Ex Sion species decoris eius: |
| 3 | God shall come manifestly: our God shall come, and shall not keep silence. A fire shall burn before him: and a mighty tempest shall be round about him. | Deus manifeste veniet; Deus noster, et non silebit. Ignis in conspectu eius exardescet; et in circuitu eius tempestas valida. |
| 4 | He shall call heaven from above, and the earth, to judge his people. | Advocabit caelum desursum, et terram, discernere populum suum. |
| 5 | Gather ye together his saints to him: who set his covenant before sacrifices. | Congregate illi sanctos eius, qui ordinant testamentum eius super sacrificia. |
| 6 | And the heavens shall declare his justice: for God is judge. | Et annuntiabunt caeli iustitiam eius, quoniam Deus iudex est. |
| 7 | Hear, O my people, and I will speak: O Israel, and I will testify to thee: I am God, thy God. | Audi, populus meus, et loquar; Israël, et testificabor tibi: Deus, Deus tuus ego sum. |
| 8 | I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices: and thy burnt offerings are always in my sight. | Non in sacrificiis tuis arguam te; holocausta autem tua in conspectu meo sunt semper. |
| 9 | I will not take calves out of thy house: nor he goats out of thy flocks. | Non accipiam de domo tua vitulos, neque de gregibus tuis hircos: |
| 10 | For all the beasts of the woods are mine: the cattle on the hills, and the oxen. | quoniam meae sunt omnes ferae silvarum, iumenta in montibus, et boves. |
| 11 | I know all the fowls of the air: and with me is the beauty of the field. | Cognovi omnia volatilia caeli, et pulchritudo agri mecum est. |
| 12 | If I should be hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof. | Si esuriero, non dicam tibi: meus est enim orbis terrae et plenitudo eius. |
| 13 | Shall I eat the flesh of bullocks? or shall I drink the blood of goats? | Numquid manducabo carnes taurorum? aut sanguinem hircorum potabo? |
| 14 | Offer to God the sacrifice of praise: and pay thy vows to the most High. | Immola Deo sacrificium laudis, et redde Altissimo vota tua. |
| 15 | And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. | Et invoca me in die tribulationis: eruam te, et honorificabis me. |
| 16 | But to the sinner God hath said: Why dost thou declare my justices, and take my covenant in thy mouth? | Peccatori autem dixit Deus: Quare tu enarras iustitias meas? et assumis testamentum meum per os tuum? |
| 17 | Seeing thou hast hated discipline: and hast cast my words behind thee. | Tu vero odisti disciplinam, et proiecisti sermones meos retrorsum. |
| 18 | If thou didst see a thief thou didst run with him: and with adulterers thou hast been a partaker. | Si videbas furem, currebas cum eo; et cum adulteris portionem tuam ponebas. |
| 19 | Thy mouth hath abounded with evil, and thy tongue framed deceits. | Os tuum abundavit malitia, et lingua tua concinnabat dolos. |
| 20 | Sitting thou didst speak against thy brother, and didst lay a scandal against thy mother’s son: | Sedens adversus fratrem tuum loquebaris, et adversus filium matris tuae ponebas scandalum. |
| 21 | These things hast thou done, and I was silent. Thou thoughtest unjustly that I should be like to thee: but I will reprove thee, and set before thy face. | Haec fecisti, et tacui. Existimasti inique quod ero tui similis: arguam te, et statuam contra faciem tuam. |
| 22 | Understand these things, you that forget God; lest he snatch you away, and there be none to deliver you. | Intelligite haec, qui obliviscimini Deum, nequando rapiat, et non sit qui eripiat. |
| 23 | The sacrifice of praise shall glorify me: and there is the way by which I will shew him the salvation of God. | Sacrificium laudis honorificabit me, et illic iter quo ostendam illi salutare Dei. |
