Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Understanding for Asaph. O God, why hast thou cast us off unto the end: why is thy wrath enkindled against the sheep of thy pasture? | Intellectus Asaph. Ut quid, Deus, repulisti in finem, iratus est furor tuus super oves pascuae tuae? |
| 2 | Remember thy congregation, which thou hast possessed from the beginning. The sceptre of thy inheritance which thou hast redeemed: mount Sion in which thou hast dwelt. | Memor esto congregationis tuae, quam possedisti ab initio. Redemisti virgam haereditatis tuae, mons Sion, in quo habitasti in eo. |
| 3 | Lift up thy hands against their pride unto the end; see what things the enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary. | Leva manus tuas in superbias eorum in finem: quanta malignatus est inimicus in sancto! |
| 4 | And they that hate thee have made their boasts, in the midst of thy solemnity. They have set up their ensigns for signs, | Et gloriati sunt qui oderunt te in medio solemnitatis tuae; posuerunt signa sua, signa: |
| 5 | And they knew not both in the going out and on the highest top. As with axes in a wood of trees, | et non cognoverunt sicut in exitu super summum. Quasi in silva lignorum securibus |
| 6 | They have cut down at once the gates thereof, with axe and hatchet they have brought it down. | exciderunt ianuas eius in idipsum; in securi et ascia deiecerunt eam. |
| 7 | They have set fire to thy sanctuary: they have defiled the dwelling place of thy name on the earth. | Incenderunt igni sanctuarium tuum; in terra polluerunt tabernaculum nominis tui. |
| 8 | They said in their heart, the whole kindred of them together: Let us abolish all the festival days of God from the land. | Dixerunt in corde suo cognatio eorum simul: Quiescere faciamus omnes dies festos Dei a terra. |
| 9 | Our signs we have not seen, there is now no prophet: and he will know us no more. | Signa nostra non vidimus; iam non est propheta; et nos non cognoscet amplius. |
| 10 | How long, O God, shall the enemy reproach: is the adversary to provoke thy name for ever? | Usquequo, Deus, improperabit inimicus? irritat adversarius nomen tuum in finem? |
| 11 | Why dost thou turn away thy hand: and thy right hand out of the midst of thy bosom for ever? | Ut quid avertis manum tuam, et dexteram tuam de medio sinu tuo in finem? |
| 12 | But God is our king before ages: he hath wrought salvation in the midst of the earth. | Deus autem rex noster ante saecula: operatus est salutem in medio terrae. |
| 13 | Thou by thy strength didst make the sea firm: thou didst crush the heads of the dragons in the waters. | Tu confirmasti in virtute tua mare; contribulasti capita draconum in aquis. |
| 14 | Thou hast broken the heads of the dragon: thou hast given him to be meat for the people of the Ethiopians. | Tu confregisti capita draconis; dedisti eum escam populis Aethiopum. |
| 15 | Thou hast broken up the fountains and the torrents: thou hast dried up the Ethan rivers. | Tu dirupisti fontes et torrentes; tu siccasti fluvios Ethan. |
| 16 | Thine is the day, and thine is the night: thou hast made the morning light and the sun. | Tuus est dies, et tua est nox; tu fabricatus es auroram et solem. |
| 17 | Thou hast made all the borders of the earth: the summer and the spring were formed by thee. | Tu fecisti omnes terminos terrae; aestatem et ver tu plasmasti ea. |
| 18 | Remember this, the enemy hath reproached the Lord: and a foolish people hath provoked thy name. | Memor esto huius: inimicus improperavit Domino, et populus insipiens incitavit nomen tuum. |
| 19 | Deliver not up to beasts the souls that confess to thee: and forget not to the end the souls of thy poor. | Ne tradas bestiis animas confitentes tibi, et animas pauperum tuorum ne obliviscaris in finem. |
| 20 | Have regard to thy covenant: for they that are the obscure of the earth have been filled with dwellings of iniquity. | Respice in testamentum tuum, quia repleti sunt qui obscurati sunt terrae domibus iniquitatum. |
| 21 | Let not the humble be turned away with confusion: the poor and needy shall praise thy name. | Ne avertatur humilis factus confusus; pauper et inops laudabunt nomen tuum. |
| 22 | Arise, O God, judge thy own cause: remember thy reproaches with which the foolish man hath reproached thee all the day. | Exsurge, Deus, iudica causam tuam; memor esto improperiorum tuorum, eorum quae ab insipiente sunt tota die. |
| 23 | Forget not the voices of thy enemies: the pride of them that hate thee ascendeth continually. | Ne obliviscaris voces inimicorum tuorum: superbia eorum qui te oderunt ascendit semper. |
