Clementine Vulgate, 1598
World English Bible
1In finem, pro octava. Psalmus David.
1In the LORD, I take refuge. How can you say to my soul, “Flee as a bird to your mountain”?
2[Salvum me fac, Domine, quoniam defecit sanctus, quoniam diminutæ sunt veritates a filiis hominum.
2For, behold, the wicked bend their bows. They set their arrows on the strings, that they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart.
3Vana locuti sunt unusquisque ad proximum suum; labia dolosa, in corde et corde locuti sunt.
3If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?
4Disperdat Dominus universa labia dolosa, et linguam magniloquam.
4The LORD is in his holy temple. The LORD is on his throne in heaven. His eyes observe. His eyes examine the children of men.
5Qui dixerunt: Linguam nostram magnificabimus; labia nostra a nobis sunt. Quis noster dominus est?
5The LORD examines the righteous, but his soul hates the wicked and him who loves violence.
6Propter miseriam inopum, et gemitum pauperum, nunc exsurgam, dicit Dominus. Ponam in salutari; fiducialiter agam in eo.
6On the wicked he will rain blazing coals; fire, sulfur, and scorching wind shall be the portion of their cup.
7Eloquia Domini, eloquia casta; argentum igne examinatum, probatum terræ, purgatum septuplum.
7For the LORD is righteous. He loves righteousness. The upright shall see his face.
8Tu, Domine, servabis nos, et custodies nos a generatione hac in æternum.
