Psalms 56
King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
1In finem, ne disperdas. David in tituli inscriptionem, cum fugeret a facie Saul in speluncam.
2Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.
2[Miserere mei, Deus, miserere mei, quoniam in te confidit anima mea. Et in umbra alarum tuarum sperabo, donec transeat iniquitas.
3What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
3Clamabo ad Deum altissimum, Deum qui benefecit mihi.
4In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
4Misit de cælo, et liberavit me; dedit in opprobrium conculcantes me. Misit Deus misericordiam suam et veritatem suam,
5Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
5et eripuit animam meam de medio catulorum leonum. Dormivi conturbatus. Filii hominum dentes eorum arma et sagittæ, et lingua eorum gladius acutus.
6They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.
6Exaltare super cælos, Deus, et in omnem terram gloria tua.
7Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.
7Laqueum paraverunt pedibus meis, et incurvaverunt animam meam. Foderunt ante faciem meam foveam, et inciderunt in eam.
8Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
8Paratum cor meum, Deus, paratum cor meum; cantabo, et psalmum dicam.
9When I cry unto thee , then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.
9Exsurge, gloria mea; exsurge, psalterium et cithara: exsurgam diluculo.
10In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.
10Confitebor tibi in populis, Domine, et psalmum dicam tibi in gentibus:
11In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
11quoniam magnificata est usque ad cælos misericordia tua, et usque ad nubes veritas tua.
12Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
12Exaltare super cælos, Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua.]
13For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
