1Unto the end, a psalm for David. To thee, O Lord, have I lifted up my soul.
1In finem. Psalmus David. [Ad te, Domine, levavi animam meam:
2In thee, O my God, I put my trust; let me not be ashamed.
2Deus meus, in te confido; non erubescam.
3Neither let my enemies laugh at me: for none of them that wait on thee shall be confounded.
3Neque irrideant me inimici mei: etenim universi qui sustinent te, non confundentur.
4Let all them be confounded that act unjust things without cause. Shew, O Lord, thy ways to me, and teach me thy paths.
4Confundantur omnes iniqua agentes supervacue. Vias tuas, Domine, demonstra mihi, et semitas tuas edoce me.
5Direct me in thy truth, and teach me; for thou art God my Saviour; and on thee have I waited all the day long.
5Dirige me in veritate tua, et doce me, quia tu es Deus salvator meus, et te sustinui tota die.
6Remember, O Lord, thy bowels of compassion; and thy mercies that are from the beginning of the world.
6Reminiscere miserationum tuarum, Domine, et misericordiarum tuarum quæ a sæculo sunt.
7The sins of my youth and my ignorances do not remember. According to thy mercy remember thou me: for thy goodness’ sake, O Lord.
7Delicta juventutis meæ, et ignorantias meas, ne memineris. Secundum misericordiam tuam memento mei tu, propter bonitatem tuam, Domine.
8The Lord is sweet and righteous: therefore he will give a law to sinners in the way.
8Dulcis et rectus Dominus; propter hoc legem dabit delinquentibus in via.
9He will guide the mild in judgment: he will teach the meek his ways.
9Diriget mansuetos in judicio; docebit mites vias suas.
10All the ways of the Lord are mercy and truth, to them that seek after his covenant and his testimonies.
10Universæ viæ Domini, misericordia et veritas, requirentibus testamentum ejus et testimonia ejus.
11For thy name’s sake, O Lord, thou wilt pardon my sin: for it is great.
11Propter nomen tuum, Domine, propitiaberis peccato meo; multum est enim.
12Who is the man that feareth the Lord? He hath appointed him a law in the way he hath chosen.
12Quis est homo qui timet Dominum? legem statuit ei in via quam elegit.
13His soul shall dwell in good things: and his seed shall inherit the land.
13Anima ejus in bonis demorabitur, et semen ejus hæreditabit terram.
14The Lord is a firmament to them that fear him: and his covenant shall be made manifest to them.
14Firmamentum est Dominus timentibus eum; et testamentum ipsius ut manifestetur illis.
15My eyes are ever towards the Lord: for he shall pluck my feet out of the snare.
15Oculi mei semper ad Dominum, quoniam ipse evellet de laqueo pedes meos.
16Look thou upon me, and have mercy on me; for I am alone and poor.
16Respice in me, et miserere mei, quia unicus et pauper sum ego.
17The troubles of my heart are multiplied: deliver me from my necessities.
17Tribulationes cordis mei multiplicatæ sunt: de necessitatibus meis erue me.
18See my abjection and my labour; and forgive me all my sins.
18Vide humilitatem meam et laborem meum, et dimitte universa delicta mea.
19Consider my enemies for they are multiplied, and have hated me with an unjust hatred.
19Respice inimicos meos, quoniam multiplicati sunt, et odio iniquo oderunt me.
20Keep thou my soul, and deliver me: I shall not be ashamed, for I have hoped in thee.
20Custodi animam meam, et erue me: non erubescam, quoniam speravi in te.
21The innocent and the upright have adhered to me: because I have waited on thee.
21Innocentes et recti adhæserunt mihi, quia sustinui te.
22Deliver Israel, O God, from all his tribulations.
22Libera, Deus, Israël ex omnibus tribulationibus suis.]
