Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Hear my prayer, LORD. Listen to my petitions. In your faithfulness and righteousness, relieve me.
1Psalmus David. Adversus Goliath. [Benedictus Dominus Deus meus, qui docet manus meas ad prælium, et digitos meos ad bellum.
2Don’t enter into judgment with your servant, for in your sight no man living is righteous.
2Misericordia mea et refugium meum; susceptor meus et liberator meus; protector meus, et in ipso speravi, qui subdit populum meum sub me.
3For the enemy pursues my soul. He has struck my life down to the ground. He has made me live in dark places, as those who have been long dead.
3Domine, quid est homo, quia innotuisti ei? aut filius hominis, quia reputas eum?
4Therefore my spirit is overwhelmed within me. My heart within me is desolate.
4Homo vanitati similis factus est; dies ejus sicut umbra prætereunt.
5I remember the days of old. I meditate on all your doings. I contemplate the work of your hands.
5Domine, inclina cælos tuos, et descende; tange montes, et fumigabunt.
6I spread out my hands to you. My soul thirsts for you, like a parched land. Selah.
6Fulgura coruscationem, et dissipabis eos; emitte sagittas tuas, et conturbabis eos.
7Hurry to answer me, LORD. My spirit fails. Don’t hide your face from me, so that I don’t become like those who go down into the pit.
7Emitte manum tuam de alto: eripe me, et libera me de aquis multis, de manu filiorum alienorum:
8Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.
8quorum os locutum est vanitatem, et dextera eorum dextera iniquitatis.
9Deliver me, LORD, from my enemies. I flee to you to hide me.
9Deus, canticum novum cantabo tibi; in psalterio decachordo psallam tibi.
10Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.
10Qui das salutem regibus, qui redemisti David servum tuum de gladio maligno,
11Revive me, LORD, for your name’s sake. In your righteousness, bring my soul out of trouble.
11eripe me, et erue me de manu filiorum alienorum, quorum os locutum est vanitatem, et dextera eorum dextera iniquitatis.
12In your loving kindness, cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul, for I am your servant.
12Quorum filii sicut novellæ plantationes in juventute sua; filiæ eorum compositæ, circumornatæ ut similitudo templi.
