Psalms, 30
1. Unto the end, a psalm for David, in an ecstasy.
1. Salmo. Inno per la dedicazione del tempio. Di Davide.
2. In thee, O Lord, have I hoped, Iet me never be confounded: deliver me in thy justice.
2. Ti voglio esaltare, o Signore, poiché mi hai tratto in alto, e non hai permesso ai miei nemici di rallegrarsi di me.
3. Bow down thy ear to me: make haste to deliver me. Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a house of refuge, to save me.
3. Signore mio Dio, ho gridato a te e mi hai guarito;
4. For thou art my strength and my refuge; and for thy name's sake thou wilt lead me, and nourish me.
4. Signore, dagli inferi hai fatto risalire l'anima mia, mi hai ridato la vita e non m'hai lasciato con quanti discendono nella fossa.
5. Thou wilt bring me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me: for thou art my protector.
5. Cantate al Signore, o suoi devoti; celebrate il suo santo memoriale,
6. Into thy hands I commend my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, the God of truth.
6. poiché un momento dura la sua ira, ma per tutta la vita il suo favore. Se alla sera alberga il pianto, al mattino sopraggiunge la gioia.
7. Thou hast hated them that regard vanities, to no purpose. But I have hoped in the Lord:
7. Io avevo detto nella mia prosperità: "Non vacillerò in eterno".
8. I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy. For thou best regarded my humility, thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.
8. O Signore, nel tuo favore mi sembrava che mi avessi reso più stabile delle montagne possenti. Poi nascondesti il tuo volto e io caddi nello sgomento.
9. And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.
9. A te, Signore, gridavo, dal mio Signore imploravo pietà: "Che guadagno hai tu nel mio sangue, se nella fossa io discendo?
10. Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:
10. Forse ti celebra la polvere, annunzia forse la tua fedeltà?
11. For my life is wasted with grief: and my years in sighs. My strength is weakened through poverty and my bones are disturbed.
11. Ascolta, Signore, e fammi grazia; sii tu, Signore, il mio difensore".
12. I am become a reproach among all my enemies, and very much to my neighbours; and a fear to my acquaintance. They that saw me without fled from me.
12. Allora mutasti in gioia il mio lutto, sciogliesti il mio sacco e mi cingesti di letizia.
13. I am forgotten as one dead from the heart. I am become as a vessel that is destroyed.
13. Per questo a te canterà il mio spirito e non cesserà. Signore mio Dio, per sempre vorrò celebrarti.
14. For I have heard the blame of many that dwell round about. While they assembled together against me, they consulted to take away my life.
14.
15. But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my God.
15.
16. My lots are in thy hands. Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; and from them that persecute me.
16.
17. Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy mercy.
17.
18. Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee. Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell.
18.
19. Let deceitful lips be made dumb. Which speak iniquity against the just, with pride and abuse.
19.
20. O how great is the multitude of thy sweetness, O Lord, which thou hast hidden for them that fear thee! Which thou hast wrought for them that hope in thee, in the sight of the sons of men.
20.
21. Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy face, from the disturbance of men. Thou shalt protect them in thy tabernacle from the contradiction of tongues.
21.
22. Blessed be the Lord, for he hath shewn his wonderful mercy to me in a fortified city.
22.
23. But I said in the excess of my mind: I am cast away from before thy eyes. Therefore thou hast heard the voice of my prayer, when I cried to thee.
23.
24. O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord will require truth, and will repay them abundantly that act proudly.
24.
25. Do ye manfully, and let your heart be strengthened, all ye that hope in the Lord.
25.
