1Unto the end, a psalm for David.
1In finem. Psalmus David.
2Hear, O God, my prayer, when I make supplication to thee: deliver my soul from the fear of the enemy.
2[Exaudi, Deus, orationem meam cum deprecor; a timore inimici eripe animam meam.
3Thou hast protected me from the assembly of the malignant; from the multitude of the workers of iniquity.
3Protexisti me a conventu malignantium, a multitudine operantium iniquitatem.
4For they have whetted their tongues like a sword; they have bent their bow a bitter thing,
4Quia exacuerunt ut gladium linguas suas; intenderunt arcum rem amaram,
5To shoot in secret the undefiled.
5ut sagittent in occultis immaculatum.
6They will shoot at him on a sudden, and will not fear: they are resolute in wickedness. They have talked of hiding snares; they have said: Who shall see them?
6Subito sagittabunt eum, et non timebunt; firmaverunt sibi sermonem nequam. Narraverunt ut absconderent laqueos; dixerunt: Quis videbit eos?
7They have searched after iniquities: they have failed in their search. Man shall come to a deep heart:
7Scrutati sunt iniquitates; defecerunt scrutantes scrutinio. Accedet homo ad cor altum,
8And God shall be exalted. The arrows of children are their wounds:
8et exaltabitur Deus. Sagittæ parvulorum factæ sunt plagæ eorum,
9And their tongues against them are made weak. All that saw them were troubled;
9et infirmatæ sunt contra eos linguæ eorum. Conturbati sunt omnes qui videbant eos,
10And every man was afraid. And they declared the works of God: and understood his doings.
10et timuit omnis homo. Et annuntiaverunt opera Dei, et facta ejus intellexerunt.
11The just shall rejoice in the Lord, and shall hope in him: and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
11Lætabitur justus in Domino, et sperabit in eo, et laudabuntur omnes recti corde.]
