Psalms 5

NEW JERUSALEM	VULGATA
1 [For the choirmaster For flutes Psalm Of David] Give ear to my words, Yahweh, spare a thought for mysighing.	1 In finem, pro ea quæ hæreditatem consequitur. Psalmus David.
2 Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God! To you I pray,	2 Verba mea auribus percipe, Domine ; intellige clamorem meum.
3 Yahweh. At daybreak you hear my voice; at daybreak I lay my case before you and fix my eyes on you.	3 Intende voci orationis meæ, rex meus et Deus meus.
4 You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil, no sinner can be your guest.	4 Quoniam ad te orabo, Domine : mane exaudies vocem meam.
5 Boasters cannot stand their ground under your gaze. You hate evil-doers,	5 Mane astabo tibi, et videbo quoniam non Deus volens iniquitatem tu es.
6 liars you destroy; the violent and deceitful Yahweh detests.	6 Neque habitabit juxta te malignus, neque permanebunt injusti ante oculos tuos.
7 But, so great is your faithful love, I may come into your house, and before your holy temple bow down inreverence of you.	7 Odisti omnes qui operantur iniquitatem ; perdes omnes qui loquuntur mendacium. Virum sanguinum et dolosum abominabitur Dominus.
8 In your saving justice, Yahweh, lead me, because of those who lie in wait for me; make your way plainbefore me.	8 Ego autem in multitudine misericordiæ tuæ introibo in domum tuam ; adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum in timore tuo.
9 Not a word from their lips can be trusted, through and through they are destruction, their throats arewide -- open graves, their tongues seductive.	9 Domine, deduc me in justitia tua : propter inimicos meos dirige in conspectu tuo viam meam.
10 Lay the guilt on them, God, make their intrigues their own downfal ; for their countless offences, thrustthem from you, since they have rebel ed against you.	10 Quoniam non est in ore eorum veritas ; cor eorum vanum est.
11 But joy for al who take refuge in you, endless songs of gladness! You shelter them, they rejoice inyou, those who love your name.	11 Sepulchrum patens est guttur eorum ; linguis suis dolose agebant : judica illos, Deus. Decidant a cogitationibus suis ; secundum multitudinem impietatum eorum expelle eos, quoniam irritaverunt te, Domine.
12 It is you who bless the upright, Yahweh, you surround them with favour as with a shield.	12 Et lætentur omnes qui sperant in te ; in æternum exsultabunt, et habitabis in eis. Et gloriabuntur in te omnes qui diligunt nomen tuum,
	13 quoniam tu benedices justo. Domine, ut scuto bonæ voluntatis tuæ coronasti nos.
