Psalmi 56

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Magistro chori. Secundum " Ionat elem rehoqim ". David. Miktam. Cum Gath Philistaei eum tenerent.	1 Unto the end, for a people that is removed at a distance from the sanctuary for David, for an inscription of a title (or pillar ) when the Philistines held him in Geth.
2 Miserere mei, Deus, quoniam conculcavit me homo, tota die impugnans oppressit me.	2 Have mercy on me, O God, for man hath trodden me under foot; all the day long he hath afflicted me fighting against me.
3 Conculcaverunt me inimici mei tota die, quoniam multi pugnant adversum me, Altissime.	3 My enemies have trodden on me all the day long; for they are many that make war against me.
4 In quacumque die timebo, ego in te sperabo.	4 From the height of the day I shall fear: but I will trust in thee.
5 In Deo, cuius laudabo sermonem, in Deo speravi; non timebo: quid faciet mihi caro?	5 In God I will praise my words, in God I have put my trust: I will not fear what flesh can do against me.
6 Tota die rem meam perturbabant, adversum me omnes cogitationes eorum in malum.	6 All the day long they detested my words: all their thoughts were against me unto evil.
7 Concitabant iurgia, insidiabantur, ipsi calcaneum meum observabant. Sicut quaesierunt animam meam,	7 They will dwell and hide themselves: they will watch my heel. As they have waited for my soul,
8 ita pro iniquitate retribue illis, in ira populos prosterne, Deus.	8 for nothing shalt thou save them: in thy anger thou shalt break the people in pieces, O God,
9 Peregrinationes meas tu numerasti: pone lacrimas meas in utre tuo; nonne in supputatione tua?	9 I have declared to thee my life: thou hast set my tears in thy sight, As also in thy promise.
10 Tunc convertentur inimici mei retrorsum, in quacumque die invocavero: ecce cognovi quoniam Deus meus es.	10 Then shall my enemies be turned back. In what day soever I shall call upon thee, behold I know thou art my God.
11 In Deo, cuius laudabo sermonem, in Domino, cuius laudabo sermonem,	11 In God will I praise the word, in the Lord will I praise his speech. In God have I hoped, I will not fear what man can do to me.
12 in Deo speravi; non timebo: quid faciet mihi homo?	12 In me, O God, are vows to thee, which I will pay, praises to thee:
13 Super me sunt, Deus, vota tua; reddam laudationes tibi,	13 Because thou hast delivered my soul from death, my feet from falling: that I may please in the sight of God, in the light of the living.
14 quoniam eripuisti animam meam de morte et pedes meos de lapsu, ut ambulem coram Deo in lumine viventium.
