0. To the choirmaster: according to The Gittith. A Psalm of Asaph.
1. Magistro chori. Secundum " Torcularia... ". Asaph.
1. Sing aloud to God our strength; shout for joy to the God of Jacob!
2. Exsultate Deo adiutori nostro; iubilate Deo Iacob.
2. Raise a song, sound the timbrel, the sweet lyre with the harp.
3. Sumite psalmum et date tympanum, psalterium iucundum cum cithara.
3. Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the full moon, on our feast day.
4. Bucinate in neomenia tuba, in die plenae lunae, in sollemnitate nostra.
4. For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
5. Quia praeceptum in Israel est, et iudicium Deo Iacob.
5. He made it a decree in Joseph, when he went out over the land of Egypt. I hear a voice I had not known:
6. Testimonium in Ioseph posuit illud, cum exiret de terra Aegypti; sermonem, quem non noveram, audivi:
6. "I relieved your shoulder of the burden; your hands were freed from the basket.
7. “Diverti ab oneribus dorsum eius; manus eius a cophino recesserunt.
7. In distress you called, and I delivered you; I answered you in the secret place of thunder; I tested you at the waters of Mer'ibah. [Selah]
8. In tribulatione invocasti me, et liberavi te, exaudivi te in abscondito tempestatis, probavi te apud aquam Meriba.
8. Hear, O my people, while I admonish you! O Israel, if you would but listen to me!
9. Audi, populus meus, et contestabor te; Israel, utinam audias me!
9. There shall be no strange god among you; you shall not bow down to a foreign god.
10. Non erit in te deus alienus, neque adorabis deum extraneum.
10. I am the LORD your God, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. Open your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11. Ego enim sum Dominus Deus tuus, qui eduxi te de terra Aegypti; dilata os tuum, et implebo illud.
11. "But my people did not listen to my voice; Israel would have none of me.
12. Et non audivit populus meus vocem meam, et Israel non intendit mihi.
12. So I gave them over to their stubborn hearts, to follow their own counsels.
13. Et dimisi eos secundum duritiam cordis eorum, ibunt in adinventionibus suis.
13. O that my people would listen to me, that Israel would walk in my ways!
14. Si populus meus audisset me, Israel si in viis meis ambulasset!
14. I would soon subdue their enemies, and turn my hand against their foes.
15. In brevi inimicos eorum humiliassem et super tribulantes eos misissem manum meam.
15. Those who hate the LORD would cringe toward him, and their fate would last for ever.
16. Inimici Domini blandirentur ei, et esset sors eorum in saecula;
16. I would feed you with the finest of the wheat, and with honey from the rock I would satisfy you."
17. et cibarem eos ex adipe frumenti et de petra melle saturarem eos”.
17.
