NEW JERUSALEMVULGATA
1 [For the choirmaster Of David] In Yahweh I have found refuge. How can you say to me, 'Bird, flee toyour mountain?1 In finem, pro octava. Psalmus David.
2 'For look, the wicked are drawing their bows, fitting their arrows to the string to shoot honest men fromthe shadows.2 Salvum me fac, Domine, quoniam defecit sanctus,
quoniam diminutæ sunt veritates a filiis hominum.
3 If the foundations fal to ruin, what can the upright do?'3 Vana locuti sunt unusquisque ad proximum suum ;
labia dolosa, in corde et corde locuti sunt.
4 Yahweh in his holy temple! Yahweh, his throne is in heaven; his eyes watch over the world, his gazescrutinises the children of Adam.4 Disperdat Dominus universa labia dolosa,
et linguam magniloquam.
5 Yahweh examines the upright and the wicked, the lover of violence he detests.5 Qui dixerunt : Linguam nostram magnificabimus ;
labia nostra a nobis sunt.
Quis noster dominus est ?
6 He will rain down red-hot coals, fire and sulphur on the wicked, a scorching wind wil be their lot.6 Propter miseriam inopum, et gemitum pauperum,
nunc exsurgam, dicit Dominus.
Ponam in salutari ;
fiducialiter agam in eo.
7 For Yahweh is upright and loves uprightness, the honest will ever see his face.7 Eloquia Domini, eloquia casta ; argentum igne examinatum,
probatum terræ, purgatum septuplum.
8 Tu, Domine, servabis nos,
et custodies nos a generatione hac in æternum.
9 In circuitu impii ambulant :
secundum altitudinem tuam multiplicasti filios hominum.
