NEW JERUSALEMNOVA VULGATA
1 [For the choirmaster Psalm Of David] Listen, God, to my voice as I plead, protect my life from fear ofthe enemy;1 Magistro chori. Psalmus. David.
2 hide me from the league of the wicked, from the gang of evil-doers.2 Exaudi, Deus, vocem meam in meditatione mea;
a timore inimici custodi animam meam.
3 They sharpen their tongues like a sword, aim their arrows of poisonous abuse,3 Protege me a conventu malignantium,
a multitudine operantium iniquitatem.
4 shoot at the innocent from cover, shoot suddenly, with nothing to fear.4 Qui exacuerunt ut gladium linguas suas,
intenderunt sagittas suas, venefica verba,
5 They support each other in their evil designs, they discuss how to lay their snares. 'Who wil see us?'they say,5 ut sagittent in occultis immaculatum.
Subito sagittabunt eum et non timebunt,
6 'or wil penetrate our secrets?' He wil do that, he who penetrates human nature to its depths, thedepths of the heart.6 firmaverunt sibi consilium nequam.
Disputaverunt, ut absconderent laqueos,
dixerunt: “ Quis videbit eos? ”.
7 God has shot them with his arrow, sudden were their wounds.7 Excogitaverunt iniqua, perfecerunt excogitata consilia.
Interiora hominis et cor eius abyssus.
8 He brings them down because of their tongue, and al who see them shake their heads.8 Et sagittavit illos Deus;
subito factae sunt plagae eorum,
9 Everyone wil be awestruck, proclaim what God has done, and understand why he has done it.9 et infirmavit eos lingua eorum.
Caput movebunt omnes, qui videbunt eos,
10 The upright wil rejoice in Yahweh, wil take refuge in him, and al the honest wil praise him.10 et timebit omnis homo;
et annuntiabunt opera Dei
et facta eius intellegent.
11 Laetabitur iustus in Domino et sperabit in eo,
et gloriabuntur omnes recti corde.
