World English Bible
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Why do you boast of mischief, mighty man? God’s loving kindness endures continually.
1In finem, pro Maëleth intelligentiæ David. [Dixit insipiens in corde suo: Non est Deus.
2Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
2Corrupti sunt, et abominabiles facti sunt in iniquitatibus; non est qui faciat bonum.
3You love evil more than good, lying rather than speaking the truth. Selah.
3Deus de cælo prospexit super filios hominum, ut videat si est intelligens, aut requirens Deum.
4You love all devouring words, you deceitful tongue.
4Omnes declinaverunt; simul inutiles facti sunt: non est qui faciat bonum, non est usque ad unum.
5God will likewise destroy you forever. He will take you up, and pluck you out of your tent, and root you out of the land of the living. Selah.
5Nonne scient omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, qui devorant plebem meam ut cibum panis?
6The righteous also will see it, and fear, and laugh at him, saying,
6Deum non invocaverunt; illic trepidaverunt timore, ubi non erat timor. Quoniam Deus dissipavit ossa eorum qui hominibus placent: confusi sunt, quoniam Deus sprevit eos.
7“Behold, this is the man who didn’t make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.”
7Quis dabit ex Sion salutare Israël? cum converterit Deus captivitatem plebis suæ, exsultabit Jacob, et lætabitur Israël.]
8But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in God’s house. I trust in God’s loving kindness forever and ever.
