King James Version with Apocrypha
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Hear the right, O LORD , attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.
1In finem. Puero Domini David, qui locutus est Domino verba cantici hujus, in die qua eripuit eum Dominus de manu omnium inimicorum ejus, et de manu Saul, et dixit:
2Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.
2[Diligam te, Domine, fortitudo mea.
3Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
3Dominus firmamentum meum, et refugium meum, et liberator meus. Deus meus adjutor meus, et sperabo in eum; protector meus, et cornu salutis meæ, et susceptor meus.
4Concerning the works of men, by the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of the destroyer.
4Laudans invocabo Dominum, et ab inimicis meis salvus ero.
5Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.
5Circumdederunt me dolores mortis, et torrentes iniquitatis conturbaverunt me.
6I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech.
6Dolores inferni circumdederunt me; præoccupaverunt me laquei mortis.
7Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise up against them .
7In tribulatione mea invocavi Dominum, et ad Deum meum clamavi: et exaudivit de templo sancto suo vocem meam; et clamor meus in conspectu ejus introivit in aures ejus.
8Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings,
8Commota est, et contremuit terra; fundamenta montium conturbata sunt, et commota sunt: quoniam iratus est eis.
9From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about.
9Ascendit fumus in ira ejus, et ignis a facie ejus exarsit; carbones succensi sunt ab eo.
10They are inclosed in their own fat: with their mouth they speak proudly.
10Inclinavit cælos, et descendit, et caligo sub pedibus ejus.
11They have now compassed us in our steps: they have set their eyes bowing down to the earth;
11Et ascendit super cherubim, et volavit; volavit super pennas ventorum.
12Like as a lion that is greedy of his prey, and as it were a young lion lurking in secret places.
12Et posuit tenebras latibulum suum; in circuitu ejus tabernaculum ejus, tenebrosa aqua in nubibus aëris.
13Arise, O LORD , disappoint him, cast him down: deliver my soul from the wicked, which is thy sword:
13Præ fulgore in conspectu ejus nubes transierunt; grando et carbones ignis.
14From men which are thy hand, O LORD , from men of the world, which have their portion in this life, and whose belly thou fillest with thy hid treasure: they are full of children, and leave the rest of their substance to their babes.
14Et intonuit de cælo Dominus, et Altissimus dedit vocem suam: grando et carbones ignis.
15As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
15Et misit sagittas suas, et dissipavit eos; fulgura multiplicavit, et conturbavit eos.
