Psalms 32

DOUAI-RHEIMS	VULGATA
1 To David himself, understanding. Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.	1 Psalmus David. Exsultate, justi, in Domino ; rectos decet collaudatio.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed sin, and in whose spirit there is no guile.	2 Confitemini Domino in cithara ; in psalterio decem chordarum psallite illi.
3 Because I was silent my bones grew old; whilst I cried out all the day long.	3 Cantate ei canticum novum ; bene psallite ei in vociferatione.
4 For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: I am turned in my anguish, whilst the thorn is fastened.	4 Quia rectum est verbum Domini, et omnia opera ejus in fide.
5 I have acknowledged my sin to thee, and my injustice I have not concealed. I said I will confess against myself my injustice to the Lord: and thou hast forgiven the wickedness of my sin.	5 Diligit misericordiam et judicium ; misericordia Domini plena est terra.
6 For this shall every one that is holy pray to thee in a seasonable time. And yet in a flood of many waters, they shall not come nigh unto him.	6 Verbo Domini cæli firmati sunt, et spiritu oris ejus omnis virtus eorum.
7 Thou art my refuge from the trouble which hath encompassed me: my joy, deliver me from them that surround me.	7 Congregans sicut in utre aquas maris ; ponens in thesauris abyssos.
8 I will give thee understanding, and I will instruct thee in this way, in which thou shalt go: I will fix my eyes upon thee.	8 Timeat Dominum omnis terra ; ab eo autem commoveantur omnes inhabitantes orbem.
9 Do not become like the horse and the mule, who have no understanding. With bit and bridle bind fast their jaws, who come not near unto thee.	9 Quoniam ipse dixit, et facta sunt ; ipse mandavit et creata sunt.
10 Many are the scourges of the sinner, but mercy shall encompass him that hopeth in the Lord.	10 Dominus dissipat consilia gentium ; reprobat autem cogitationes populorum, et reprobat consilia principum.
11 Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye just, and glory, all ye right of heart.	11 Consilium autem Domini in æternum manet ; cogitationes cordis ejus in generatione et generationem.
	12 Beata gens cujus est Dominus Deus ejus ; populus quem elegit in hæreditatem sibi.
	13 De cælo respexit Dominus ; vidit omnes filios hominum.
	14 De præparato habitaculo suo respexit super omnes qui habitant terram :
	15 qui finxit sigillatim corda eorum ; qui intelligit omnia opera eorum.
	16 Non salvatur rex per multam virtutem, et gigas non salvabitur in multitudine virtutis suæ.
	17 Fallax equus ad salutem ; in abundantia autem virtutis suæ non salvabitur.
	18 Ecce oculi Domini super metuentes eum, et in eis qui sperant super misericordia ejus :
	19 ut eruat a morte animas eorum, et alat eos in fame.
	20 Anima nostra sustinet Dominum, quoniam adjutor et protector noster est.
	21 Quia in eo lætabitur cor nostrum, et in nomine sancto ejus speravimus.
	22 Fiat misericordia tua, Domine, super nos, quemadmodum speravimus in te.
