Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Hear my voice, God, in my complaint. Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
1In finem. Psalmus David, canticum Jeremiæ et Ezechielis populo transmigrationis, cum inciperent exire.
2Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the noisy crowd of the ones doing evil;
2[Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion, et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem.
3who sharpen their tongue like a sword, and aim their arrows, deadly words,
3Exaudi orationem meam; ad te omnis caro veniet.
4to shoot innocent men from ambushes. They shoot at him suddenly and fearlessly.
4Verba iniquorum prævaluerunt super nos, et impietatibus nostris tu propitiaberis.
5They encourage themselves in evil plans. They talk about laying snares secretly. They say, “Who will see them?”
5Beatus quem elegisti et assumpsisti: inhabitabit in atriis tuis. Replebimur in bonis domus tuæ; sanctum est templum tuum,
6They plot injustice, saying, “We have made a perfect plan!” Surely man’s mind and heart are cunning.
6mirabile in æquitate. Exaudi nos, Deus, salutaris noster, spes omnium finium terræ, et in mari longe.
7But God will shoot at them. They will be suddenly struck down with an arrow.
7Præparans montes in virtute tua, accinctus potentia;
8Their own tongues shall ruin them. All who see them will shake their heads.
8qui conturbas profundum maris, sonum fluctuum ejus. Turbabuntur gentes,
9All mankind shall be afraid. They shall declare the work of God, and shall wisely ponder what he has done.
9et timebunt qui habitant terminos a signis tuis; exitus matutini et vespere delectabis.
10The righteous shall be glad in the LORD, and shall take refuge in him. All the upright in heart shall praise him!
10Visitasti terram, et inebriasti eam; multiplicasti locupletare eam. Flumen Dei repletum est aquis; parasti cibum illorum: quoniam ita est præparatio ejus.
