Psalm 82, Catholic Public Domain Version

1. A Canticle Psalm of Asaph.

   Canticum Psalmi Asaph.

2. 2

   O God, who will ever be like you? Do not be silent, and do not be unmoved, O God.

   Deus, quis similis erit tibi? ne taceas, neque compescaris, Deus:

3. 3

   For behold, your enemies have sounded off, and those who hate you have carried out a head.

   quoniam ecce inimici tui sonuerunt, et qui oderunt te extulerunt caput.

4. 4

   They have acted with malice in counsel over your people, and they have plotted against your holy ones.

   Super populum tuum malignaverunt consilium, et cogitaverunt adversus sanctos tuos.

5. 5

   They have said, “Come, let us scatter them from the nations and not allow the name of Israel to be remembered any longer.”

   Dixerunt: Venite, et disperdamus eos de gente, et non memoretur nomen Israël ultra.

6. 6

   For they plotted unanimously. Joined together against you, they ordained a covenant:

   Quoniam cogitaverunt unanimiter; simul adversum te testamentum disposuerunt:

7. 7

   the tabernacle of Edomites and Ishmaelites, and Moab and the Hagarites,

   tabernacula Idumæorum et Ismahelitæ, Moab et Agareni,

8. 8

   and Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek, the foreigners among the inhabitants of Tyre.

   Gebal, et Ammon, et Amalec; alienigenæ cum habitantibus Tyrum.

9. 9

   For even Assur comes with them. They have become the helpers of the sons of Lot.

   Etenim Assur venit cum illis: facti sunt in adjutorium filiis Lot.

10. 10

    Do to them as you did to Midian and Sisera, just as to Jabin at the torrent of Kishon.

    Fac illis sicut Madian et Sisaræ, sicut Jabin in torrente Cisson.

11. 11

    They perished at Endor, and they became like the dung of the earth.

    Disperierunt in Endor; facti sunt ut stercus terræ.

12. 12

    Set their leaders to be like Oreb and Zeeb, and Zebah and Zalmunna: all their leaders

    Pone principes eorum sicut Oreb, et Zeb, et Zebee, et Salmana: omnes principes eorum,

13. 13

    who said, “Let us possess the Sanctuary of God for an inheritance.”

    qui dixerunt: Hæreditate possideamus sanctuarium Dei.

14. 14

    My God, set them like a wheel, and like stubble before the face of the wind.

    Deus meus, pone illos ut rotam, et sicut stipulam ante faciem venti.

15. 15

    Set them like a fire burning up the forest, and like a flame burning up the mountains.

    Sicut ignis qui comburit silvam, et sicut flamma comburens montes,

16. 16

    So will you pursue them in your tempest, and disturb them in your wrath.

    ita persequeris illos in tempestate tua, et in ira tua turbabis eos.

17. 17

    Fill their faces with shame, and they will seek your name, O Lord.

    Imple facies eorum ignominia, et quærent nomen tuum, Domine.

18. 18

    Let them be ashamed and troubled, from age to age, and let them be confounded and perish.

    Erubescant, et conturbentur in sæculum sæculi, et confundantur, et pereant.

19. 19

    And let them know that the Lord is your name. You alone are the Most High in all the earth.

    Et cognoscant quia nomen tibi Dominus: tu solus Altissimus in omni terra.
