स्तोत्र ग्रन्थ 22

1Unto the end, for the morning protection, a psalm for David.

2O God my God, look upon me: why hast thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my sins.

3O my God, I shall cry by day, and thou wilt not hear: and by night, and it shall not be reputed as folly in me.

4But thou dwellest in the holy place, the praise of Israel.

5In thee have our fathers hoped: they have hoped, and thou hast delivered them.

6They cried to thee, and they were saved: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.

7But I am a worm, and no man: the reproach of men, and the outcast of the people.

8All they that saw me have laughed me to scorn: they have spoken with the lips, and wagged the head.

9He hoped in the Lord, let him deliver him: let him save him, seeing he delighteth in him.

10For thou art he that hast drawn me out of the womb: my hope from the breasts of my mother.

11I was cast upon thee from the womb. From my mother’s womb thou art my God,

12Depart not from me. For tribulation is very near: for there is none to help me.

13Many calves have surrounded me: fat bulls have besieged me.

14They have opened their mouths against me, as a lion ravening and roaring.

15I am poured out like water; and all my bones are scattered. My heart is become like wax melting in the midst of my bowels.

16My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue hath cleaved to my jaws: and thou hast brought me down into the dust of death.

17For many dogs have encompassed me: the council of the malignant hath besieged me. They have dug my hands and feet.

18They have numbered all my bones. And they have looked and stared upon me.

19They parted my garments amongst them; and upon my vesture they cast lots.

20But thou, O Lord, remove not thy help to a distance from me; look towards my defence.

21Deliver, O God, my soul from the sword: my only one from the hand of the dog.

22Save me from the lion’s mouth; and my lowness from the horns of the unicorns.

23I will declare thy name to my brethren: in the midst of the church will I praise thee.

24Ye that fear the Lord, praise him: all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him.

25Let all the seed of Israel fear him: because he hath not slighted nor despised the supplication of the poor man. Neither hath he turned away his face from me: and when I cried to him he heard me.

26With thee is my praise in a great church: I will pay my vows in the sight of them that fear him.

27The poor shall eat and shall be filled: and they shall praise the Lord that seek him: their hearts shall live for ever and ever.

28All the ends of the earth shall remember, and shall be converted to the Lord: And all the kindreds of the Gentiles shall adore in his sight.

29For the kingdom is the Lord’s; and he shall have dominion over the nations.

30All the fat ones of the earth have eaten and have adored: all they that go down to the earth shall fall before him.

31And to him my soul shall live: and my seed shall serve him.

32There shall be declared to the Lord a generation to come: and the heavens shall shew forth his justice to a people that shall be born, which the Lord hath made.

1In finem, pro susceptione matutina. Psalmus David.

2[Deus, Deus meus, respice in me: quare me dereliquisti? longe a salute mea verba delictorum meorum.

3Deus meus, clamabo per diem, et non exaudies; et nocte, et non ad insipientiam mihi.

4Tu autem in sancto habitas, laus Israël.

5In te speraverunt patres nostri; speraverunt, et liberasti eos.

6Ad te clamaverunt, et salvi facti sunt; in te speraverunt, et non sunt confusi.

7Ego autem sum vermis, et non homo; opprobrium hominum, et abjectio plebis.

8Omnes videntes me deriserunt me; locuti sunt labiis, et moverunt caput.

9Speravit in Domino, eripiat eum: salvum faciat eum, quoniam vult eum.

10Quoniam tu es qui extraxisti me de ventre, spes mea ab uberibus matris meæ.

11In te projectus sum ex utero; de ventre matris meæ Deus meus es tu:

12ne discesseris a me, quoniam tribulatio proxima est, quoniam non est qui adjuvet.

13Circumdederunt me vituli multi; tauri pingues obsederunt me.

14Aperuerunt super me os suum, sicut leo rapiens et rugiens.

15Sicut aqua effusus sum, et dispersa sunt omnia ossa mea: factum est cor meum tamquam cera liquescens in medio ventris mei.

16Aruit tamquam testa virtus mea, et lingua mea adhæsit faucibus meis: et in pulverem mortis deduxisti me.

17Quoniam circumdederunt me canes multi; concilium malignantium obsedit me. Foderunt manus meas et pedes meos;

18dinumeraverunt omnia ossa mea. Ipsi vero consideraverunt et inspexerunt me.

19Diviserunt sibi vestimenta mea, et super vestem meam miserunt sortem.

20Tu autem, Domine, ne elongaveris auxilium tuum a me; ad defensionem meam conspice.

21Erue a framea, Deus, animam meam, et de manu canis unicam meam.

22Salva me ex ore leonis, et a cornibus unicornium humilitatem meam.

23Narrabo nomen tuum fratribus meis; in medio ecclesiæ laudabo te.

24Qui timetis Dominum, laudate eum; universum semen Jacob, glorificate eum.

25Timeat eum omne semen Israël, quoniam non sprevit, neque despexit deprecationem pauperis, nec avertit faciem suam a me: et cum clamarem ad eum, exaudivit me.

26Apud te laus mea in ecclesia magna; vota mea reddam in conspectu timentium eum.

27Edent pauperes, et saturabuntur, et laudabunt Dominum qui requirunt eum: vivent corda eorum in sæculum sæculi.

28Reminiscentur et convertentur ad Dominum universi fines terræ; et adorabunt in conspectu ejus universæ familiæ gentium:

29quoniam Domini est regnum, et ipse dominabitur gentium.

30Manducaverunt et adoraverunt omnes pingues terræ; in conspectu ejus cadent omnes qui descendunt in terram.

31Et anima mea illi vivet; et semen meum serviet ipsi.

32Annuntiabitur Domino generatio ventura; et annuntiabunt cæli justitiam ejus populo qui nascetur, quem fecit Dominus.]

1Unto the end. For the tasks of early morning. A Psalm of David.

2O God, my God, look upon me. Why have you forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my offenses.

3My God, I will cry out by day, and you will not heed, and by night, and it will not be foolishness for me.

4But you dwell in holiness, O Praise of Israel.

5In you, our fathers have hoped. They hoped, and you freed them.

6They cried out to you, and they were saved. In you, they hoped and were not confounded.

7But I am a worm and not a man: a disgrace among men, and an outcast of the people.

8All those who saw me have derided me. They have spoken with the lips and shook the head.

9He has hoped in the Lord, let him rescue him. Let him save him because he chooses him.

10For you are the one who has drawn me out of the womb, my hope from the breasts of my mother.

11I have been thrown upon you from the womb; from the womb of my mother, you are my God.

12Do not depart from me. For tribulation is near, since there is no one who may help me.

13Many calves have surrounded me; fat bulls have besieged me.

14They have opened their mouths over me, just like a lion seizing and roaring.

15And so, I have been poured out like water, and all my bones have been scattered. My heart has become like wax, melting in the midst of my chest.

16My strength has dried up like clay, and my tongue has adhered to my jaws. And you have pulled me down, into the dust of death.

17For many dogs have surrounded me. The council of the malicious has besieged me. They have pierced my hands and feet.

18They have numbered all my bones. And they have examined me and stared at me.

19They divided my garments among them, and over my vestment, they cast lots.

20But you, O Lord, do not take your help far from me; be attentive to my defense.

21O God, rescue my soul from the spear, and my only one from the hand of the dog.

22Save me from the mouth of the lion, and my humility from the horns of the single-horned beast.

23I will declare your name to my brothers. In the midst of the Church, I will praise you.

24You who fear the Lord, praise him. All the offspring of Jacob, glorify him.

25May all the offspring of Israel fear him. For he has neither spurned nor despised the pleas of the poor. Neither has he turned his face away from me. And when I cried out to him, he heeded me.

26My praise is with you, within a great church. I will pay my vows in the sight of those who fear him.

27The poor will eat and be satisfied, and those who yearn for the Lord will praise him. Their hearts will live forever and ever.

28All the ends of the earth will remember, and they will be converted to the Lord. And all the families of the Gentiles will adore in his sight.

29For the kingdom belongs to the Lord, and he will have dominion over the Gentiles.

30All the fat of the earth have gnashed their teeth, and they have adored. In his sight, they will fall down, all those who descend to the ground.

31And my soul will live for him, and my offspring will serve him.

32There will be announced for the Lord a future generation, and the heavens will announce his justice to a people who will be born, whom the Lord has made.
