Psalmorum 141
Clementine Vulgate, 1598Translation
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Intellectus David, cum esset in spelunca, oratio.
1LORD , I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.
2[Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi, voce mea ad Dominum deprecatus sum.
2Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3Effundo in conspectu ejus orationem meam, et tribulationem meam ante ipsum pronuntio:
3Set a watch, O LORD , before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
4in deficiendo ex me spiritum meum, et tu cognovisti semitas meas. In via hac qua ambulabam absconderunt laqueum mihi.
4Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
5Considerabam ad dexteram, et videbam, et non erat qui cognosceret me: periit fuga a me, et non est qui requirat animam meam.
5Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.
6Clamavi ad te, Domine; dixi: Tu es spes mea, portio mea in terra viventium.
6When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
7Intende ad deprecationem meam, quia humiliatus sum nimis. Libera me a persequentibus me, quia confortati sunt super me.
7Our bones are scattered at the grave’s mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.
8Educ de custodia animam meam ad confitendum nomini tuo; me exspectant justi donec retribuas mihi.]
8But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.
