Psalmorum 10
Clementine Vulgate, 1598Translation
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1In finem. Psalmus David.
1Why standest thou afar off, O LORD ? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?
2[In Domino confido; quomodo dicitis animæ meæ: Transmigra in montem sicut passer?
2The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
3Quoniam ecce peccatores intenderunt arcum; paraverunt sagittas suas in pharetra, ut sagittent in obscuro rectos corde:
3For the wicked boasteth of his heart’s desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth.
4quoniam quæ perfecisti destruxerunt; justus autem, quid fecit?
4The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.
5Dominus in templo sancto suo; Dominus in cælo sedes ejus. Oculi ejus in pauperem respiciunt; palpebræ ejus interrogant filios hominum.
5His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.
6Dominus interrogat justum et impium; qui autem diligit iniquitatem, odit animam suam.
6He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.
7Pluet super peccatores laqueos; ignis et sulphur, et spiritus procellarum, pars calicis eorum.
7His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.
8Quoniam justus Dominus, et justitias dilexit: æquitatem vidit vultus ejus.]
8He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.
