Psalms 58

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	VULGATA
1 To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Miktam of David. Do you indeed decree what is right, you gods? Do you judge the sons of men uprightly?	1 In finem, ne disperdas. David in tituli inscriptionem, quando misit Saul et custodivit domum ejus ut eum interficeret.
2 Nay, in your hearts you devise wrongs; your hands deal out violence on earth.	2 Eripe me de inimicis meis, Deus meus, et ab insurgentibus in me libera me.
3 The wicked go astray from the womb, they err from their birth, speaking lies.	3 Eripe me de operantibus iniquitatem, et de viris sanguinum salva me.
4 They have venom like the venom of a serpent, like the deaf adder that stops its ear,	4 Quia ecce ceperunt animam meam ; irruerunt in me fortes.
5 so that it does not hear the voice of charmers or of the cunning enchanter.	5 Neque iniquitas mea, neque peccatum meum, Domine ; sine iniquitate cucurri, et direxi.
6 O God, break the teeth in their mouths; tear out the fangs of the young lions, O LORD!	6 Exsurge in occursum meum, et vide : et tu, Domine Deus virtutum, Deus Israël, intende ad visitandas omnes gentes : non miserearis omnibus qui operantur iniquitatem.
7 Let them vanish like water that runs away; like grass let them be trodden down and wither.	7 Convertentur ad vesperam, et famem patientur ut canes : et circuibunt civitatem.
8 Let them be like the snail which dissolves into slime, like the untimely birth that never sees the sun.	8 Ecce loquentur in ore suo, et gladius in labiis eorum : quoniam quis audivit ?
9 Sooner than your pots can feel the heat of thorns, whether green or ablaze, may he sweep them away!	9 Et tu, Domine, deridebis eos ; ad nihilum deduces omnes gentes.
10 The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance; he will bathe his feet in the blood of the wicked.	10 Fortitudinem meam ad te custodiam, quia, Deus, susceptor meus es :
11 Men will say, "Surely there is a reward for the righteous; surely there is a God who judges on earth."	11 Deus meus misericordia ejus præveniet me.
	12 Deus ostendet mihi super inimicos meos : ne occidas eos, nequando obliviscantur populi mei. Disperge illos in virtute tua, et depone eos, protector meus, Domine :
	13 delictum oris eorum, sermonem labiorum ipsorum ; et comprehendantur in superbia sua. Et de execratione et mendacio annuntiabuntur
	14 in consummatione : in ira consummationis, et non erunt. Et scient quia Deus dominabitur Jacob, et finium terræ.
	15 Convertentur ad vesperam, et famem patientur ut canes : et circuibunt civitatem.
	16 Ipsi dispergentur ad manducandum ; si vero non fuerint saturati, et murmurabunt.
	17 Ego autem cantabo fortitudinem tuam, et exsultabo mane misericordiam tuam : quia factus es susceptor meus, et refugium meum in die tribulationis meæ.
	18 Adjutor meus, tibi psallam, quia Deus susceptor meus es ; Deus meus, misericordia mea.
