NEW JERUSALEMVULGATA
1 [Psalm Of David] Yahweh, I am cal ing, hurry to me, listen to my voice when I cal to you.1 Intellectus David, cum esset in spelunca, oratio.
2 May my prayer be like incense in your presence, my uplifted hands like the evening sacrifice.2 Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi,
voce mea ad Dominum deprecatus sum.
3 Yahweh, mount a guard over my mouth, a guard at the door of my lips.3 Effundo in conspectu ejus orationem meam,
et tribulationem meam ante ipsum pronuntio :
4 Check any impulse to speak evil, to share the foul deeds of evil-doers. I shal not sample theirdelights!4 in deficiendo ex me spiritum meum,
et tu cognovisti semitas meas.
In via hac qua ambulabam
absconderunt laqueum mihi.
5 May the upright correct me with a friend's rebuke; but the wicked shal never anoint my head with oil,for that would make me party to their crimes.5 Considerabam ad dexteram, et videbam,
et non erat qui cognosceret me :
periit fuga a me,
et non est qui requirat animam meam.
6 They are delivered into the power of the rock, their judge, those who took pleasure in hearing mesay,6 Clamavi ad te, Domine ;
dixi : Tu es spes mea,
portio mea in terra viventium.
7 'Like a shattered mil stone on the ground our bones are scattered at the mouth of Sheol.'7 Intende ad deprecationem meam,
quia humiliatus sum nimis.
Libera me a persequentibus me,
quia confortati sunt super me.
8 To you, Yahweh, I turn my eyes, in you I take refuge, do not leave me unprotected.8 Educ de custodia animam meam
ad confitendum nomini tuo ;
me exspectant justi donec retribuas mihi.
9 Save me from the traps that are set for me, the snares of evil-doers.
10 Let the wicked fal each into his own net, while I pass on my way.
