KING JAMES BIBLEVULGATA
1 LORD, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.1 Intellectus David, cum esset in spelunca, oratio.
2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.2 Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi,
voce mea ad Dominum deprecatus sum.
3 Set a watch, O LORD, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.3 Effundo in conspectu ejus orationem meam,
et tribulationem meam ante ipsum pronuntio :
4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.4 in deficiendo ex me spiritum meum,
et tu cognovisti semitas meas.
In via hac qua ambulabam
absconderunt laqueum mihi.
5 Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.5 Considerabam ad dexteram, et videbam,
et non erat qui cognosceret me :
periit fuga a me,
et non est qui requirat animam meam.
6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.6 Clamavi ad te, Domine ;
dixi : Tu es spes mea,
portio mea in terra viventium.
7 Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.7 Intende ad deprecationem meam,
quia humiliatus sum nimis.
Libera me a persequentibus me,
quia confortati sunt super me.
8 But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.8 Educ de custodia animam meam
ad confitendum nomini tuo ;
me exspectant justi donec retribuas mihi.
9 Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.
