Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1I will bless the LORD at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth.
1Ipsi David. [Judica, Domine, nocentes me; expugna impugnantes me.
2My soul shall boast in the LORD. The humble shall hear of it and be glad.
2Apprehende arma et scutum, et exsurge in adjutorium mihi.
3Oh magnify the LORD with me. Let’s exalt his name together.
3Effunde frameam, et conclude adversus eos qui persequuntur me; dic animæ meæ: Salus tua ego sum.
4I sought the LORD, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
4Confundantur et revereantur quærentes animam meam; avertantur retrorsum et confundantur cogitantes mihi mala.
5They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame.
5Fiant tamquam pulvis ante faciem venti, et angelus Domini coarctans eos.
6This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
6Fiat via illorum tenebræ et lubricum, et angelus Domini persequens eos.
7The LORD’s angel encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them.
7Quoniam gratis absconderunt mihi interitum laquei sui; supervacue exprobraverunt animam meam.
8Oh taste and see that the LORD is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
8Veniat illi laqueus quem ignorat, et captio quam abscondit apprehendat eum, et in laqueum cadat in ipsum.
9Oh fear the LORD, you his saints, for there is no lack with those who fear him.
9Anima autem mea exsultabit in Domino, et delectabitur super salutari suo.
10The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, but those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
10Omnia ossa mea dicent: Domine, quis similis tibi? eripiens inopem de manu fortiorum ejus; egenum et pauperem a diripientibus eum.
11Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
11Surgentes testes iniqui, quæ ignorabam interrogabant me.
12Who is someone who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
12Retribuebant mihi mala pro bonis, sterilitatem animæ meæ.
13Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking lies.
13Ego autem, cum mihi molesti essent, induebar cilicio; humiliabam in jejunio animam meam, et oratio mea in sinu meo convertetur.
14Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it.
14Quasi proximum et quasi fratrem nostrum sic complacebam; quasi lugens et contristatus sic humiliabar.
15The LORD’s eyes are toward the righteous. His ears listen to their cry.
15Et adversum me lætati sunt, et convenerunt; congregata sunt super me flagella, et ignoravi.
16The LORD’s face is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth.
16Dissipati sunt, nec compuncti; tentaverunt me, subsannaverunt me subsannatione; frenduerunt super me dentibus suis.
17The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles.
17Domine, quando respicies? Restitue animam meam a malignitate eorum; a leonibus unicam meam.
18The LORD is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.
18Confitebor tibi in ecclesia magna; in populo gravi laudabo te.
19Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.
19Non supergaudeant mihi qui adversantur mihi inique, qui oderunt me gratis, et annuunt oculis.
20He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken.
20Quoniam mihi quidem pacifice loquebantur; et in iracundia terræ loquentes, dolos cogitabant.
21Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.
21Et dilataverunt super me os suum; dixerunt: Euge, euge ! viderunt oculi nostri.
22The LORD redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
22Vidisti, Domine: ne sileas; Domine, ne discedas a me.
