Clementine Vulgate, 1598
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
1In finem, in carminibus. Intellectus David,
1(53-1) For the Leader; upon Mahalath. Maschil of David. (53-2) The fool hath said in his heart: 'There is no God'; they have dealt corruptly, and have done abominable iniquity; there is none that doeth good.
2cum venissent Ziphæi, et dixissent ad Saul: Nonne David absconditus est apud nos?
2(53-3) God looked forth from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any man of understanding, that did seek after God.
3[Deus, in nomine tuo salvum me fac, et in virtute tua judica me.
3(53-4) Every one of them is unclean, they are together become impure; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4Deus, exaudi orationem meam; auribus percipe verba oris mei.
4(53-5) 'Shall not the workers of iniquity know it, who eat up My people as they eat bread, and call not upon God?'
5Quoniam alieni insurrexerunt adversum me, et fortes quæsierunt animam meam, et non proposuerunt Deum ante conspectum suum.
5(53-6) There are they in great fear, where no fear was; for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee; Thou hast put them to shame, because God hath rejected them.
6Ecce enim Deus adjuvat me, et Dominus susceptor est animæ meæ.
6(53-7) Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When God turneth the captivity of His people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
7Averte mala inimicis meis; et in veritate tua disperde illos.
