Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1A prayer for David himself. Incline thy ear, O Lord, and hear me: for I am needy and poor.
1Oratio ipsi David. [Inclina, Domine, aurem tuam et exaudi me, quoniam inops et pauper sum ego.
2Preserve my soul, for I am holy: save thy servant, O my God, that trusteth in thee.
2Custodi animam meam, quoniam sanctus sum; salvum fac servum tuum, Deus meus, sperantem in te.
3Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I have cried to thee all the day.
3Miserere mei, Domine, quoniam ad te clamavi tota die;
4Give joy to the soul of thy servant, for to thee, O Lord, I have lifted up my soul.
4lætifica animam servi tui, quoniam ad te, Domine, animam meam levavi.
5For thou, O Lord, art sweet and mild: and plenteous in mercy to all that call upon thee.
5Quoniam tu, Domine, suavis et mitis, et multæ misericordiæ omnibus invocantibus te.
6Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer: and attend to the voice of my petition.
6Auribus percipe, Domine, orationem meam, et intende voci deprecationis meæ.
7I have called upon thee in the day of my trouble: because thou hast heard me.
7In die tribulationis meæ clamavi ad te, quia exaudisti me.
8There is none among the gods like unto thee, O Lord: and there is none according to thy works.
8Non est similis tui in diis, Domine, et non est secundum opera tua.
9All the nations thou hast made shall come and adore before thee, O Lord: and they shall glorify thy name.
9Omnes gentes quascumque fecisti venient, et adorabunt coram te, Domine, et glorificabunt nomen tuum.
10For thou art great and dost wonderful things: thou art God alone.
10Quoniam magnus es tu, et faciens mirabilia; tu es Deus solus.
11Conduct me, O Lord, in thy way, and I will walk in thy truth: let my heart rejoice that it may fear thy name.
11Deduc me, Domine, in via tua, et ingrediar in veritate tua; lætetur cor meum, ut timeat nomen tuum.
12I will praise thee, O Lord my God: with my whole heart, and I will glorify thy name for ever:
12Confitebor tibi, Domine Deus meus, in toto corde meo, et glorificabo nomen tuum in æternum:
13For thy mercy is great towards me: and thou hast delivered my soul out of the lower hell.
13quia misericordia tua magna est super me, et eruisti animam meam ex inferno inferiori.
14O God, the wicked are risen up against me, and the assembly of the mighty have sought my soul: and they have not set thee before their eyes.
14Deus, iniqui insurrexerunt super me, et synagoga potentium quæsierunt animam meam: et non proposuerunt te in conspectu suo.
15And thou, O Lord, art a God of compassion, and merciful, patient, and of much mercy, and true.
15Et tu, Domine Deus, miserator et misericors; patiens, et multæ misericordiæ, et verax.
16O look upon me, and have mercy on me: give thy command to thy servant, and save the son of thy handmaid.
16Respice in me, et miserere mei; da imperium tuum puero tuo, et salvum fac filium ancillæ tuæ.
17Shew me a token for good: that they who hate me may see, and be confounded, because thou, O Lord, hast helped me and hast comforted me.
17Fac mecum signum in bonum, ut videant qui oderunt me, et confundantur: quoniam tu, Domine, adjuvisti me, et consolatus es me.]
