King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast.
1In finem, ne disperdas. David in tituli inscriptionem.
2I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performeth all things for me.
2[Si vere utique justitiam loquimini, recta judicate, filii hominum.
3He shall send from heaven, and save me from the reproach of him that would swallow me up. Selah. God shall send forth his mercy and his truth.
3Etenim in corde iniquitates operamini; in terra injustitias manus vestræ concinnant.
4My soul is among lions: and I lie even among them that are set on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.
4Alienati sunt peccatores a vulva; erraverunt ab utero: locuti sunt falsa.
5Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens; let thy glory be above all the earth.
5Furor illis secundum similitudinem serpentis, sicut aspidis surdæ et obturantis aures suas,
6They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves . Selah.
6quæ non exaudiet vocem incantantium, et venefici incantantis sapienter.
7My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.
7Deus conteret dentes eorum in ore ipsorum; molas leonum confringet Dominus.
8Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early.
8Ad nihilum devenient tamquam aqua decurrens; intendit arcum suum donec infirmentur.
9I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing unto thee among the nations.
9Sicut cera quæ fluit auferentur; supercecidit ignis, et non viderunt solem.
10For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.
10Priusquam intelligerent spinæ vestræ rhamnum, sicut viventes sic in ira absorbet eos.
11Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above all the earth.
11Lætabitur justus cum viderit vindictam; manus suas lavabit in sanguine peccatoris.
