Psalms 57

DOUAI-RHEIMS	NOVA VULGATA
1 Unto the end, destroy not, for David, for an inscription of a title, when he fled from Saul into the cave	1 Magistro chori. Secundum " Ne destruxeris ". David. Miktam. Quando a Saul in cavernam fugit.
2 Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me: for my soul trusteth in thee. And in the shadow of thy wings will I hope, until iniquity pass away.	2 Miserere mei, Deus, miserere mei, quoniam in te confugit anima mea; et in umbra alarum tuarum confugiam, donec transeant insidiae.
3 I will cry to God the most High; to God who hath done good to me.	3 Clamabo ad Deum Altissimum, Deum, qui benefecit mihi.
4 He hath sent from heaven and delivered me: he hath made them a reproach that trod upon me. God hath sent his mercy and his truth,	4 Mittet de caelo et liberabit me; dabit in opprobrium conculcantes me. Mittet Deus misericordiam suam et veritatem suam.
5 and he hath delivered my soul from the midst of the young lions. I slept troubled. The sons of men, whose teeth are weapons and arrows, and their tongue a sharp sword.	5 Anima mea recumbit in medio catulorum leonum devorantium filios hominum. Dentes eorum arma et sagittae, et lingua eorum gladius acutus.
6 Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, and thy glory above all the earth.	6 Exaltare super caelos, Deus, super omnem terram gloria tua.
7 They prepared a snare for my feet; and they bowed down my soul. They dug a pit before my face, and they are fallen into it.	7 Laqueum paraverunt pedibus meis, et incurvavit se anima mea; foderunt ante faciem meam foveam, et ipsi inciderunt in eam.
8 My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready: I will Sing, and rehearse a psalm.	8 Paratum cor meum, Deus, paratum cor meum;
9 Arise, O my glory, arise psaltery and harp: I will arise early.	9 cantabo et psalmum dicam. Exsurge, gloria mea; exsurge, psalterium et cithara, excitabo auroram.
10 I will give praise to thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing a psalm to thee among the nations.	10 Confitebor tibi in populis, Domine, et psalmum dicam tibi in nationibus,
11 For thy mercy is magnified even to the heavens: and thy truth unto the clouds.	11 quoniam magnificata est usque ad caelos misericordia tua, et usque ad nubes veritas tua.
12 Be thou exalted, O God, above the l heavens: and thy glory above all the earth.	12 Exaltare super caelos, Deus, super omnem terram gloria tua.
