Young's Literal Translation
For
the choirmaster
. A
Maskil
of
the
sons of Korah. We
have
heard
with our ears, O
God;
our fathers have told
us the work You
did
in their days, in the days of old.
To
the Overseer
. --
By
sons of Korah. An
Instruction.
O
God,
with our ears we
have
heard
, Our fathers have recounted
to
us ,
The work Thou
didst
work
in their days, In the days of old.
With Your
hand You
drove
out
the
nations and planted
our
fathers
there;
You
crushed
the
peoples and cast
them out
.
Thou,
`
with '
Thy
hand ,
nations hast
dispossessed.
And Thou
dost
plant
them.
Thou
afflictest
peoples ,
and sendest
them away
.
For it
was
not by their sword that
they took
the land ;
their arm did
not bring
them victory.
It
was
by
Your
right hand, Your
arm, and the light of Your
face
, because You
favored
them.
For ,
not by their sword Possessed
they the land ,
And
their arm gave
not salvation
to
them ,
But
Thy
right hand, and
Thine
arm, And the light of Thy
countenance
, Because Thou
hadst
accepted
them.
You
are
my King, O God, who
ordains
victories
for
Jacob.
Thou
`art'
He,
my king, O God, Command
the
deliverances
of
Jacob.
Through
You
we
repel
our foes;
through
Your
name
we trample
our enemies.
By
Thee
our adversaries
we do
push,
By
Thy
name
tread
down
our withstanders,
For I
do
not trust
in my bow, nor
does
my sword save me.
For ,
not in my bow do
I
trust
, And
my sword doth
not
save me.
For You
save
us from our enemies;
You
put
those who
hate
us to shame.
For Thou
hast
saved
us from our adversaries,
And
those hating
us Thou
hast
put
to shame.
In God we have boasted all day long
, and Your
name we will
praise
forever
. Selah
In God we have boasted all the
day, And Thy
name to
the
age
we thank
. Selah .
But
You
have
rejected
and humbled
us ;
You
no
longer
go
forth with our armies
.
In
anger
Thou
hast
cast
off
and causest
us to
blush,
And
goest
not
forth with our hosts
.
You
have
made
us retreat
from the
foe
, and those who
hate
us have plundered
us
.
Thou
causest
us to
turn
backward
from an
adversary
, And those hating
us ,
Have spoiled
for
themselves
.
You
have
given
us up
as
sheep to
be
devoured;
You
have
scattered
us
among the
nations.
Thou
makest
us food
like
sheep ,
And
among nations Thou
hast
scattered
us
.
You
sell
Your
people for
nothing;
no
profit
do
You
gain
from
their sale
.
Thou
sellest
Thy
people --
without
wealth,
And
hast
not
become
great
by
their price
.
You
have
made
us a reproach to our neighbors
, a mockery
and derision
to those
around
us
.
Thou
makest
us a reproach to our neighbours
, A scorn
and a
reproach
to our
surrounders
.
You
have
made
us a byword
among the
nations, a laughingstock
among
the peoples.
Thou
makest
us a simile
among nations, A shaking
of
the head
among
peoples.
All day long
my disgrace
is before me, and shame has
covered
my face ,
All the
day my confusion
`
is '
before me, And the
shame of
my face hath
covered
me.
at
the voice of the
scorner
and reviler, because of the
enemy ,
bent
on
revenge
.
Because
of
the voice of a
reproacher
and reviler, Because of an
enemy and
a
self-avenger
.
All this has
come
upon
us, though
we have
not forgotten
You
or
betrayed
Your
covenant.
All this met
us, and
we did
not forget
Thee,
Nor
have
we
dealt
falsely
in
Thy
covenant.
Our
hearts
have
not turned
back;
our steps
have
not
strayed
from Your
path.
We
turn
not backward
our heart,
Nor
turn
aside
doth
our
step
from Thy
path.
But You
have
crushed
us in the
lair
of jackals;
You
have
covered
us with deepest
darkness
.
But Thou
hast
smitten
us in a
place
of dragons,
And
dost
cover
us over
with death-shade
.
If we had
forgotten the name of our God or
spread out
our hands to a foreign
god,
If we have
forgotten the name of our God ,
And
spread our hands to a strange
God,
would
not God have
discovered,
since
He knows
the secrets of the heart ?
Doth
not God search
out
this?
For
He knoweth
the secrets of the heart .
Yet
for Your
sake we face
death
all day long;
we
are
considered
as sheep to
be
slaughtered
.
Surely,
for Thy
sake we have
been
slain
all the
day ,
Reckoned
as sheep of
the
slaughter
.
Wake
up, O Lord !
Why
are
You
sleeping
? Arise!
Do
not
reject
us forever
.
Stir
up --
why
dost
Thou
sleep
, O Lord? Awake,
cast
us not
off
for
ever
.
Why do
You
hide
Your
face and
forget
our affliction
and oppression ?
Why Thy
face hidest
Thou?
Thou
forgettest
our afflictions
and our
oppression ,
For our
soul
has
sunk
to the dust ;
our bodies
cling
to the earth.
For bowed
to the dust hath
our soul,
Cleaved
to the earth hath
our
belly
.
Rise
up;
be
our
help !
Redeem
us on
account
of
Your
loving
devotion
.
Arise,
a
help to
us ,
And
ransom
us
for
thy
kindness'
sake
.
