Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1The psalm of David when he fled from the face of his son Absalom.
1Psalmus David, cum fugeret a facie Absalom filii sui.
2Why, O Lord, are they multiplied that afflict me? many are they who rise up against me.
2[Domine, quid multiplicati sunt qui tribulant me? Multi insurgunt adversum me;
3Many say to my soul: There is no salvation for him in his God.
3multi dicunt animæ meæ: Non est salus ipsi in Deo ejus.
4But thou, O Lord art my protector, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
4Tu autem Domine, susceptor meus es, gloria mea, et exaltans caput meum.
5I have cried to the Lord with my voice: and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
5Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi; et exaudivit me de monte sancto suo.
6I have slept and taken my rest: and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
6Ego dormivi, et soporatus sum; et exsurrexi, quia Dominus suscepit me.
7I will not fear thousands of the people, surrounding me: arise, O Lord; save me, O my God.
7Non timebo millia populi circumdantis me. Exsurge, Domine; salvum me fac, Deus meus.
8For thou hast struck all them who are my adversaries without cause: thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
8Quoniam tu percussisti omnes adversantes mihi sine causa; dentes peccatorum contrivisti.
9Salvation is of the Lord: and thy blessing is upon thy people.
9Domini est salus; et super populum tuum benedictio tua.]
