Psalms 52

NEW JERUSALEM	NOVA VULGATA
1 [For the choirmaster Poem Of David When Doeg the Edomite went and warned Saul, 'David has goneto Abimelech's house'] Why take pride in being wicked, you champion in vil ainy, al day long	1 Magistro chori. Maskil. David,
2 plotting crime? Your tongue is razor-sharp, you artist in perfidy.	2 postquam Doeg Edomita ad Saul venit eique narravit dicens: " David intravit in domum Abimelech ".
3 You prefer evil to good, lying to uprightness. Pause	3 Quid gloriaris in malitia, qui potens es iniquitate?
4 You revel in destructive talk, treacherous tongue!	4 Tota die insidias cogitasti; lingua tua sicut novacula acuta, qui facis dolum.
5 That is why God wil crush you, destroy you once and for all, snatch you from your tent, uproot youfrom the land of the living.Pause	5 Dilexisti malitiam super benignitatem, mendacium magis quam loqui aequitatem.
6 The upright wil be awestruck as they see it, they wil mock him,	6 Dilexisti omnia verba perditionis, lingua dolosa.
7 'So much for someone who would not place his reliance in God, but relied on his own great wealth,and made himself strong by crime.'	7 Propterea Deus destruet te in finem; evellet te et emigrabit te de tabernaculo et radicem tuam de terra viventium.
8 But I, like a flourishing olive tree in the house of God, put my trust in God's faithful love, for ever andever.	8 Videbunt iusti et timebunt et super eum ridebunt:
9 I shal praise you for ever for what you have done, and shal trust in your name, so ful of goodness, inthe presence of your faithful.	9 “ Ecce homo, qui non posuit Deum refugium suum, sed speravit in multitudine divitiarum suarum et praevaluit in insidiis suis ”.
	10 Ego autem sicut virens oliva in domo Dei. Speravi in misericordia Dei in aeternum et in saeculum saeculi.
	11 Confitebor tibi in saeculum, quia fecisti; et exspectabo nomen tuum, quoniam bonum est, in conspectu sanctorum tuorum.
