108 — Salmi

1Unto the end, a psalm for David.Salmo di Davidde.Vnto the end, a Psalme of Dauid.In finem. Psalmus David. 2O God, be not thou silent in my praise: for the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful man is opened against me.Non tener celata, o Dio, la mia lode: perocché la bocca dell'iniquo, e del traditore si è spalancata contro di me.O God conceale not my prayse: because the mouth of the sinner, and the mouth of the deceitful man is open vpon me.Deus, laudem meam ne tacueris, / quia os peccatoris et os dolosi super me apertum est. 3They have spoken against me with deceitful tongues; and they have compassed me about with words of hatred; and have fought against me without cause.Han parlato contro di me con lingua bugiarda; e con discorsi spiranti il mal animo mi hanno circonvenuto, e impugnato senza cagione.They haue spoken against me with deceitful tongue, and with wordes of hatred they haue compassed me: and they haue impugned me without cause.Locuti sunt adversum me lingua dolosa, / et sermonibus odii circumdederunt me: / et expugnaverunt me gratis. 4Instead of making me a return of love, they detracted me: but I gave myself to prayer.In vece di amarmi mi nimicavano: ma io orava.For that they should loue me, they backbited me: but I prayed.Pro eo ut me diligerent, detrahebant mihi; / ego autem orabam. 5And they repaid me evil for good: and hatred for my love.E rendettero a me male per bene, e odio per l'amor mioAnd they set against me euil thinges for good: and hatred for my loue.Et posuerunt adversum me mala pro bonis, / et odium pro dilectione mea. 6Set thou the sinner over him: and may the devil stand at his right hand.Soggetta colui al peccatore, e il diavolo gli stia alla destra.Appoint a sinner ouer him: and let the diuel stand on his righthand.Constitue super eum peccatorem, / et diabolus stet a dextris ejus. 7When he is judged, may he go out condemned; and may his prayer be turned to sin.Quand'egli è chiamato in giudizio n'esca condannato, e l'orazione di lui diventi un peccato.When he is iudged, let him comeforth condemned: and let his prayer be turned into sinne.Cum judicatur, exeat condemnatus; / et oratio ejus fiat in peccatum. 8May his days be few: and his bishopric let another take.I giorni di lui siano pochi, e il suo ministero sia dato a un altro.Let his dayes be made fewe: and let an other take his bishopricke.Fiant dies ejus pauci, / et episcopatum ejus accipiat alter.

9May his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.Divengano orfani i suoi figliuoli, e vedova la sua moglie.Let his children be made orphans: and his wife a widow.Fiant filii ejus orphani, / et uxor ejus vidua. 10Let his children be carried about vagabonds, and beg; and let them be cast out of their dwellings.I suoi figliuoli errino vagabondi, e mendichino: e siano discacciati dalle loro abitazioni.Let his children be transported wandering, and let them begge: and let them be cast out of their habitations.Nutantes transferantur filii ejus et mendicent, / et ejiciantur de habitationibus suis. 11May the usurer search all his substance: and let strangers plunder his labours.Le sue facoltà rintracci tutte l'usuraio: e sian depredate dagli stranieri le sue fatiche.Let the vsurer search al his substance: and let strangers spoile his labours.Scrutetur fœnerator omnem substantiam ejus, / et diripiant alieni labores ejus. 12May there be none to help him: nor none to pity his fatherless offspring.Non sia per lui chi l'aiuti, né sia chi de' suoi pupilli abbia pietà.Let there be none to helpe him: neither let there be anie to haue pittie on his pupilles.Non sit illi adjutor, / nec sit qui misereatur pupillis ejus. 13May his posterity be cut off; in one generation may his name be blotted out.I figliuoli di lui siano sterminati: in una generazione sola resti cancellato il suo nome.Let his children come to destruction: in one generation let his name be cleane put out.Fiant nati ejus in interitum; / in generatione una deleatur nomen ejus. 14May the iniquity of his fathers be remembered in the sight of the Lord: and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.Torni in memoria dinanzi a Dio l'iniquità de' suoi padri, e il peccato di sua madre non sia cancellato.Let the iniquitie of his fathers returne to memorie in the sight of our Lord: and let not the sinne of his mother be blotted out.In memoriam redeat iniquitas patrum ejus in conspectu Domini, / et peccatum matris ejus non deleatur. 15May they be before the Lord continually, and let the memory of them perish from the earth:Siano (i loro peccati) sempre davanti al Signore, e sparisca dalla terra la memoria di loro:Let them be before our Lord alwayes, and let the memorie of them perish out of the earth:Fiant contra Dominum semper, / et dispereat de terra memoria eorum: 16because he remembered not to shew mercy,perché egli non si è ricordato di usare misericordia.For that he remembred not to doe mercie.pro eo quod non est recordatus facere misericordiam, 17But persecuted the poor man and the beggar; and the broken in heart, to put him to death.E ha perseguitato un povero, e un mendico, e uno che aveva il cuore addolorato per metterlo a morte.And he persecuted the poore, and needie man, and the compunct in hart to kil him.et persecutus est hominem inopem et mendicum, / et compunctum corde, mortificare.

18And he loved cursing, and it shall come unto him: and he would not have blessing, and it shall be far from him. And he put on cursing, like a garment: and it went in like water into his entrails, and like oil in his bones.E ha amato la maledizione, e gli verrà: e non ha voluto la benedizione, e sarà lontana da lui. E si è rivestito della maledizione quasi di un vestimento, ed ella ha penetrato come acqua nelle sue interiora, e come olio, nelle sue ossa.And he loued cursing, and it shal come to him: and he would not blessing, and it shal be far from him. And he put on cursing as a garment, and it entred as water into his inner partes, and as oile in his bones.Et dilexit maledictionem, et veniet ei; / et noluit benedictionem, et elongabitur ab eo. / Et induit maledictionem sicut vestimentum; / et intravit sicut aqua in interiora ejus, / et sicut oleum in ossibus ejus. 19May it be unto him like a garment which covereth him; and like a girdle with which he is girded continually.Siagli come la veste, che lo ricopre, e come la cintola, con cui sempre si cinge.Be it to him as a garment, wherwith he is couered: and as a girdle, wherwith he is alwayes girded.Fiat ei sicut vestimentum quo operitur, / et sicut zona qua semper præcingitur. 20This is the work of them who detract me before the Lord; and who speak evils against my soul.Questo è presso Dio il guadagno dì coloro, che mi nimicano, e macchinano sciagure contro l'anima mia.This is the worke of them, that detract from me before our Lord: and that speake euils against my soule.Hoc opus eorum qui detrahunt mihi apud Dominum, / et qui loquuntur mala adversus animam meam. 21But thou, O Lord, do with me for thy name’s sake: because thy mercy is sweet. Do thou deliver me,E tu, Signore, Signore, sta dalla parte mia per amor del tuo nome: imperocché soave ell'è la tua misericordia.And thou Lord, Lord, doe with me for thy names sake: because thy mercie is swete. Deliuer meEt tu, Domine, Domine, fac mecum propter nomen tuum, / quia suavis est misericordia tua. 22For I am poor and needy, and my heart is troubled within me.Liberami, perché io son bisognoso e povero: e il mio cuore è turbato dentro di me.because I am needie, and poore: and my hart is trubled within me.Libera me, quia egenus et pauper ego sum, / et cor meum conturbatum est intra me. 23I am taken away like the shadow when it declineth: and I am shaken off as locusts.Svanisco com' ombra, che va declinando, e mi agitano come si fa delle locuste.As a shadow when it declineth, am I taken away: and I am shaken as locustes.Sicut umbra cum declinat ablatus sum, / et excussus sum sicut locustæ.

24My knees are weakened through fasting: and my flesh is changed for oil.Le mie ginocchia sono snervate per lo digiuno, ed è stenuata la mia carne priva di umore.My knees are weakened with fasting: and my flesh is changed by reason of oile.Genua mea infirmata sunt a jejunio, / et caro mea immutata est propter oleum. 25And I am become a reproach to them: they saw me and they shaked their heads.Ed io divenni il loro ludibrio: mi miravano, e scuotevano le loro teste.And I am made a reproch to them: they saw me, and wagged their heades.Et ego factus sum opprobrium illis; / viderunt me, et moverunt capita sua. 26Help me, O Lord my God; save me; according to thy mercy.Aiutami, Signore Dio mio: salvami secondo la tua misericordia.Helpe me ô Lord my God: saue me according to thy mercie.Adjuva me, Domine Deus meus; / salvum me fac secundum misericordiam tuam. 27And let them know that this is thy hand: and that thou, O Lord, hast done it.E sappiano, che in questo vi è la tua mano: e che questa cosa da te è fatta, o Signore.And let them know that this is thy hand: and thou ô Lord hast done it.Et sciant quia manus tua hæc, / et tu, Domine, fecisti eam. 28They will curse and thou wilt bless: let them that rise up against me be confounded: but thy servant shall rejoice.Eglino malediranno, e tu benedirai; quelli, che si levano contro di me siano svergognati: ma il tuo servo sarà nell'allegrezza.They wil curse, and thou shalt blesse: let them that rise vp against me, be confounded: but thy seruant shal reioyce.Maledicent illi, et tu benedices: / qui insurgunt in me confundantur; / servus autem tuus lætabitur. 29Let them that detract me be clothed with shame: and let them be covered with their confusion as with a double cloak.Siano coperti di rossore quelli, che mi nimicano: e siano rinvolti nella lor confusione come in un doppio mantello:Let them that detract from me, be clothed with shame: and let them be couered with their confusion, as with a duble patched cloke.Induantur qui detrahunt mihi pudore, / et operiantur sicut diploide confusione sua. 30I will give great thanks to the Lord with my mouth: and in the midst of many I will praise him.Celebrerò altamente colla mia bocca il Signore: e nella numerosa adunanza a lui darò lode.I wil confesse to our Lord excedingly with my mouth: and in the middes of manie I wil prayse him:Confitebor Domino nimis in ore meo, / et in medio multorum laudabo eum: 31Because he hath stood at the right hand of the poor, to save my soul from persecutors.Perché egli si è messo alla destra del povero per salvar dai persecutori l'anima mia.Because he hath stood on the righthand of the poore, that he might saue my soule from the persecutors.quia astitit a dextris pauperis, / ut salvam faceret a persequentibus animam meam.
