101 — Psalms

1The prayer of the poor man, when he was anxious, and poured out his supplication before the Lord.Orazione del povero, che è tu tribolazione, e spande la sua orazione dinanzi al Signore.The prayer of the poore, when he shal be anxious, and shal make his petition before our Lord.Oratio pauperis, cum anxius fuerit, et in conspectu Domini effuderit precem suam. 2Hear, O Lord, my prayer: and let my cry come to thee.Signore, esaudisci la mia orazione, e a te giungano le mie grida.LORD heare my prayer: and let my crie come to thee.Domine, exaudi orationem meam, / et clamor meus ad te veniat. 3Turn not away thy face from me: in the day when I am in trouble, incline thy ear to me. In what day soever I shall call upon thee, hear me speedily.Non rivolger da me la tua faccia in ogni giorno di mia tribolazione di udienza alle mie parole. In qualunque giorno io ti invochi, tu esaudiscimi prontamente;Turne not away thy face from me: in what day soeuer I am in tribulation, incline thine eare to me. In what day soeuer I shal inuocate thee, heare me speedely.Non avertas faciem tuam a me: / in quacumque die tribulor, inclina ad me aurem tuam; / in quacumque die invocavero te, velociter exaudi me. 4For my days are vanished like smoke, and my bones are grown dry like fuel for the fire.Imperocché i giorni miei quasi fumo sono svaniti; e le ossa mie si sono inaridite come legno combustibile.Because my dayes haue vanished as smoke: and my bones are withered as a drie burnt firebrand.Quia defecerunt sicut fumus dies mei, / et ossa mea sicut cremium aruerunt. 5I am smitten as grass, and my heart is withered: because I forgot to eat my bread.Sono appassito com'erba, e il mio cuore si è inaridito, perché mi sono scordato di mangiare il mio pane.I am striken as grasse, and my hart is withered: because I haue forgotten to eate my bread.Percussus sum ut fœnum, et aruit cor meum, / quia oblitus sum comedere panem meum. 6Through the voice of my groaning, my bone hath cleaved to my flesh.Pel gridare, e pel sospirare mi è rimasta attaccata alle ossa la mia carne.For the voyce of my groning, my bone hath cleaued to my flesh.A voce gemitus mei / adhæsit os meum carni meæ. 7I am become like to a pelican of the wilderness: I am like a night raven in the house.Son divenuto simile al pelicano del deserto: son divenuto simile al corvo notturno nel suo tristo albergo.I am become like a pellicane of the wildernes: I am become as a nightcrow in the house.Similis factus sum pellicano solitudinis; / factus sum sicut nycticorax in domicilio. 8I have watched, and am become as a sparrow all alone on the housetop.Passai senza sonno le notti, e fui simile all'uccello, che solo si sta sopra i tetti.I haue watched, and am become as a sparow solitarie in the housetoppe.Vigilavi, et factus sum sicut passer solitarius in tecto.

9All the day long my enemies reproached me: and they that praised me did swear against me.Tutto di mi facevan rimproveri i miei nemici, e quei, che già mi lodavano, congiuravano contro di me.Al the day did mine enemies vpbrayde me: and they that praysed me, sware against me.Tota die exprobrabant mihi inimici mei, / et qui laudabant me adversum me jurabant: 10For I did eat ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping.Perché in luogo di pane da mangiare io ebbi la cenere, e la mia bevanda mescolai colle lagrime,Because I did eate ashes as bread, & mingled my drinke with weeping.quia cinerem tamquam panem manducabam, / et potum meum cum fletu miscebam, 11Because of thy anger and indignation: for having lifted me up thou hast thrown me down.Al veder l'ira tua, e la tua indignazione; perocché tu innalzatomi mi gettasti per terra.At the face of thy wrath and indignation: because lifting me vp thou hast throwne me downe.a facie iræ et indignationis tuæ: / quia elevans allisisti me. 12My days have declined like a shadow, and I am withered like grass.I miei giorni son passati com'ombra, e io com'erba seccai.My daies haue declined as a shadow: and I am withered as grasse.Dies mei sicut umbra declinaverunt, / et ego sicut fœnum arui. 13But thou, O Lord, endurest for ever: and thy memorial to all generations.Ma tu, o Signore, duri in eterno, e di generazione in generazione va la ricordanza di te.But thou ô Lord endurest for euer: and thy memorial in generation and generation.Tu autem, Domine, in æternum permanes, / et memoriale tuum in generationem et generationem. 14Thou shalt arise and have mercy on Sion: for it is time to have mercy on it, for the time is come.Tu svegliato avrai pietà di Sionne, perché il tempo di averne pietà, il tempo è venuto.Thou rysing vp shal haue mercie on Sion: because it is time to haue mercie on it, because the time cometh.Tu exsurgens misereberis Sion, / quia tempus miserendi ejus, quia venit tempus: 15For the stones thereof have pleased thy servants: and they shall have pity on the earth thereof.Imperocché le ruine di lei sono care a' tuoi servi, e la polvere di lei ameranno.Because the stones therof haue pleased thy seruantes: and they shal haue pittie on the earth therof.quoniam placuerunt servis tuis lapides ejus, / et terræ ejus miserebuntur. 16And the Gentiles shall fear thy name, O Lord, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.E le genti temeranno il nome tuo, o Signore, e la tua gloria tutti i re della terra.And the Gentiles shal feare thy name ô Lord, and al the kinges of the earth thy glorie.Et timebunt gentes nomen tuum, Domine, / et omnes reges terræ gloriam tuam:

17For the Lord hath built up Sion: and he shall be seen in his glory.Imperocché il Signore edificherà Sionne, ed ivi sarà veduto nella sua gloria.Because our Lord hath built Sion: and he shal be seene in his glorie.quia ædificavit Dominus Sion, / et videbitur in gloria sua. 18He hath had regard to the prayer of the humble: and he hath not despised their petition.Egli ha avuto riguardo all'orazione degli umili, e non ha disprezzata la loro preghiera.He hath had respect to the prayer of the humble: and he hath not despised their petition.Respexit in orationem humilium / et non sprevit precem eorum. 19Let these things be written unto another generation: and the people that shall be created shall praise the Lord:Scrivansi queste cose per la generazione futura: e il popolo, che sarà creato darà lode al Signore:Let these thinges be written vnto an other generation: and the people, that shal be created, shal praise our Lord.Scribantur hæc in generatione altera, / et populus qui creabitur laudabit Dominum. 20Because he hath looked forth from his high sanctuary: from heaven the Lord hath looked upon the earth.Perché egli ha mirato dal suo santo cielo: il Signore dal cielo ha mirato sopra la terra:Because he hath looked forth from his high holie place: our Lord from heauen hath looked vpon the earth.Quia prospexit de excelso sancto suo; / Dominus de cælo in terram aspexit: 21That he might hear the groans of them that are in fetters: that he might release the children of the slain:Per udire i gemiti di quei, che sono ne' ceppi, per dar libertà a' figliuoli degli uccisi.That he might heare the gronings of the fettered: that he might loose the children of them that are slayne:ut audiret gemitus compeditorum; / ut solveret filios interemptorum: 22That they may declare the name of the Lord in Sion: and his praise in Jerusalem;Affinchè predichino il nome del Signore in Sionne, e le lodi di lui in Gerusalemme.That they may shewforth the name of our Lord in Sion: and his praise in Ierusalem.ut annuntient in Sion nomen Domini, / et laudem ejus in Jerusalem: 23When the people assemble together, and kings, to serve the Lord.Quando i popoli si riuniranno insieme, e i re per servire al Signore.In the assembling of the people together in one, and kinges to serue our Lord.in conveniendo populos in unum, et reges, / ut serviant Domino. 24He answered him in the way of his strength: Declare unto me the fewness of my days.Disse a lui l'uomo nel corso di una vegeta età: fammi inteso del piccol numero de' miei giorni.He answered him in the way of his strength: Shew me the fewnes of my daies.Respondit ei in via virtutis suæ: / Paucitatem dierum meorum nuntia mihi:

25Call me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are unto generation and generation.Non mi richiamare alla metà de' miei giorni: gli anni tuoi sono eterni.Cal me not backe in the halfe of my daies: thy yeares are vnto generation and generation.ne revoces me in dimidio dierum meorum, / in generationem et generationem anni tui. 26In the beginning, O Lord, thou foundedst the earth: and the heavens are the works of thy hands.Tu da principio, o Signore, fondasti la terra, e opera delle mani tue sono i cieli.In the beginning ô Lord thou didst found the earth: and the heauens are the workes of thy hands.Initio tu, Domine, terram fundasti, / et opera manuum tuarum sunt cæli. 27They shall perish but thou remainest: and all of them shall grow old like a garment: And as a vesture thou shalt change them, and they shall be changed.Eglino periranno; ma tu se' immutabile: ed essi invecchieranno tutti come un vestito. E come un mantello li cangerai, e saranno cangiati:They shal perish, but thou art permanent: and they shal al waxe old as a garment. And as a vesture thou shalt change them, and they shal be changed:Ipsi peribunt, tu autem permanes; / et omnes sicut vestimentum veterascent. / Et sicut opertorium mutabis eos, et mutabuntur; 28But thou art always the selfsame, and thy years shall not fail.ma tu se' quell'istesso, e gli anni tuoi non verran meno.but thou art the selfe same, and thy yeares shal not faile.tu autem idem ipse es, et anni tui non deficient. 29The children of thy servants shall continue and their seed shall be directed for ever.I figliuoli de' servi tuoi avran ferma sede, e la loro posterità sarà stabilita pe' secoli.The children of thy seruantes shal inhabite: and their seede shal be directed for euer.Filii servorum tuorum habitabunt, / et semen eorum in sæculum dirigetur.
