| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | Septuagint (Sixtine edition, 1587) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | A canticle of a psalm for the sons of Core: unto the end, for Maheleth, to answer understanding of Eman the Ezrahite. | Canticum Psalmi, filiis Core, in finem, pro Maheleth ad respondendum. Intellectus Eman Ezrahitae. | Ὠδὴ ψαλμοῦ τοῖς υἱοῖς Κορὲ, εἰς τὸ τέλος, ὑπὲρ μαελὲθ τοῦ ἀποκριθῆναι, συνέσεως Αἰμὰν τῷ Ἰσραηλίτῃ. |
| 2 | O Lord, the God of my salvation: I have cried in the day, and in the night before thee. | Domine, Deus salutis meae, in die clamavi et nocte coram te. | Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς τῆς σωτηρίας μου, ἡμέρας ἐκέκραξα καὶ ἐν νυκτὶ ἐναντίον σου. |
| 3 | Let my prayer come in before thee: incline thy ear to my petition. | Intret in conspectu tuo oratio mea, inclina aurem tuam ad precem meam. | Εἰσελθέτω ἐνώπιόν σου ἡ προσευχή μου, κλῖνον τὸ οὖς σου εἰς τὴν δέησίν μου, Κύριε. |
| 4 | For my soul is filled with evils: and my life hath drawn nigh to hell. | Quia repleta est malis anima mea, et vita mea inferno appropinquavit. | Ὅτι ἐπλήσθη κακῶν ἡ ψυχή μου, καὶ ἡ ζωή μου τῷ ᾅδῃ ἤγγισε. |
| 5 | I am counted among them that go down to the pit: I am become as a man without help, | Aestimatus sum cum descendentibus in lacum, factus sum sicut homo sine adiutorio, | Προσελογίσθην μετὰ τῶν καταβαινόντων εἰς λάκκον, ἐγενήθην ὡς ἄνθρωπος ἀβοήθητος, |
| 6 | Free among the dead. Like the slain sleeping in the sepulchres, whom thou rememberest no more: and they are cast off from thy hand. | inter mortuos liber; sicut vulnerati dormientes in sepulchris, quorum non es memor amplius, et ipsi de manu tua repulsi sunt. | ἐν νεκροῖς ἐλεύθερος, ὡσεὶ τραυματίαι ἐῤῥιμμένοι καθεύδοντες ἐν τάφῳ, ὧν οὐκ ἐμνήσθης ἔτι, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἐκ τῆς χειρός σου ἀπώσθησαν. |
| 7 | They have laid me in the lower pit: in the dark places, and in the shadow of death. | Posuerunt me in lacu inferiori, in tenebrosis, et in umbra mortis. | Ἔθεντό με ἐν λάκκῳ κατωτάτῳ, ἐν σκοτεινοῖς καὶ ἐν σκιᾷ θανάτου. |
| 8 | Thy wrath is strong over me: and all thy waves thou hast brought in upon me. | Super me confirmatus est furor tuus, et omnes fluctus tuos induxisti super me. | Ἐπʼ ἐμὲ ἐπεστηρίχθη ὁ θυμός σου, καὶ πάντας τοὺς μετεωρισμούς σου ἐπήγαγες ἐπʼ ἐμέ· διάψαλμα. |
| 9 | Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me: they have set me an abomination to themselves. I was delivered up, and came not forth: | Longe fecisti notos meos a me; posuerunt me abominationem sibi. Traditus sum, et non egrediebar; | Ἐμάκρυνας τοὺς γνωστούς μου ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ, ἔθεντό με βδέλυγμα ἑαυτοῖς· παρεδόθην καὶ οὐκ ἐξεπορευόμην. |
| 10 | My eyes languished through poverty. All the day I cried to thee, O Lord: I stretched out my hands to thee. | oculi mei languerunt prae inopia. Clamavi ad te, Domine, tota die; expandi ad te manus meas. | Οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου ἠσθένησαυ ἀπὸ πτωχείας· καὶ ἐκέκραξα πρὸς σὲ Κύριε ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν, διεπέτασα πρὸς σὲ τὰς χεῖράς μου. |
| 11 | Wilt thou shew wonders to the dead? or shall physicians raise to life, and give praise to thee? | Numquid mortuis facies mirabilia? aut medici suscitabunt, et confitebuntur tibi? | Μὴ τοῖς νεκροῖς ποιήσεις θαυμάσια, ἢ ἰατροὶ ἀναστήσουσι καὶ ἐξομολογήσονταί σοι; |
| 12 | Shall any one in the sepulchre declare thy mercy: and thy truth in destruction? | Numquid narrabit aliquis in sepulchro misericordiam tuam, et veritatem tuam in perditione? | Μὴ διηγήσεταί τις ἐν τάφῳ τὸ ἔλεός σου, καὶ τὴν ἀλήθειάν σου ἐν τῇ ἀπωλείᾳ; |
| 13 | Shall thy wonders be known in the dark; and thy justice in the land of forgetfulness? | Numquid cognoscentur in tenebris mirabilia tua? et iustitia tua in terra oblivionis? | Μὴ γνωσθήσεται ἐν τῷ σκότει τὰ θαυμάσιά σου, καὶ ἡ δικαιοσύνη σου ἐν γῇ ἐπιλελησμένῃ; |
| 14 | But I, O Lord, have cried to thee: and in the morning my prayer shall prevent thee. | Et ego ad te, Domine, clamavi, et mane oratio mea praeveniet te. | Κᾀγὼ πρὸς σὲ Κύριε ἐκέκραξα, καὶ τοπρωῒ ἡ προσευχή μου προφθάσει σε. |
| 15 | Lord, why castest thou off my prayer: why turnest thou away thy face from me? | Ut quid, Domine, repellis orationem meam; avertis faciem tuam a me? | Ἱνατί Κύριε ἀπωθεῖς τὴν προσευχήν μου, ἀποστρέφεις τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ; |
| 16 | I am poor, and in labours from my youth: and being exalted have been humbled and troubled. | Pauper sum ego, et in laboribus a iuventute mea; exaltatus autem, humiliatus sum et conturbatus. | Πτωχός εἰμι ἐγὼ καὶ ἐν κόποις ἐκ νεότητός μου, ὑψωθεὶς δὲ ἐταπεινώθην καὶ ἐξηπορήθην. |
| 17 | Thy wrath hath come upon me: and thy terrors have troubled me. | In me transierunt irae tuae, et terrores tui conturbaverunt me: | Ἐπʼ ἐμὲ διῆλθον αἱ ὀργαί σου, καὶ οἱ φοβερισμοί σου ἐξετάραξάν με. |
| 18 | They have come round about me like water all the day: they have compassed me about together. | circumdederunt me sicut aqua tota die; circumdederunt me simul. | Ἐκύκλωσάν με ὡς ὕδωρ, ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν περιέσχον με ἅμα. |
| 19 | Friend and neighbour thou hast put far from me: and my acquaintance, because of misery. | Elongasti a me amicum et proximum, et notos meos a miseria. | Ἐμάκρυνας ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ φίλον, καὶ τοὺς γνωστούς μου ἀπὸ ταλαιπωρίας. |
