Psalmi 52

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Magistro chori. Maskil. David,	1 Unto the end, understanding for David,
2 postquam Doeg Edomita ad Saul venit eique narravit dicens: " David intravit in domum Abimelech ".	2 when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul David went to the house of Achimelech
3 Quid gloriaris in malitia, qui potens es iniquitate?	3 Why dost thou glory in malice, thou that art mighty in iniquity?
4 Tota die insidias cogitasti; lingua tua sicut novacula acuta, qui facis dolum.	4 All the day long thy tongue hath devised injustice: as a sharp razor, thou hast wrought deceit.
5 Dilexisti malitiam super benignitatem, mendacium magis quam loqui aequitatem.	5 Thou hast loved malice more than goodness: and iniquity rather than to speak righteousness.
6 Dilexisti omnia verba perditionis, lingua dolosa.	6 Thou hast loved all the words of ruin, O deceitful tongue.
7 Propterea Deus destruet te in finem; evellet te et emigrabit te de tabernaculo et radicem tuam de terra viventium.	7 Therefore will God destroy thee for ever: he will pluck thee out, and remove thee from thy dwelling place: and thy root out of the land of the living.
8 Videbunt iusti et timebunt et super eum ridebunt:	8 The just shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, and say:
9 “ Ecce homo, qui non posuit Deum refugium suum, sed speravit in multitudine divitiarum suarum et praevaluit in insidiis suis ”.	9 Behold the man that made not God his helper: But trusted in the abundance of his riches: and prevailed in his vanity.
10 Ego autem sicut virens oliva in domo Dei. Speravi in misericordia Dei in aeternum et in saeculum saeculi.	10 But I, as a fruitful olive tree in the house of God, have hoped in the mercy of God for ever, yea for ever and ever.
11 Confitebor tibi in saeculum, quia fecisti; et exspectabo nomen tuum, quoniam bonum est, in conspectu sanctorum tuorum.	11 I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name, for it is good in the sight of thy saints.
