Psalms 50

DOUAI-RHEIMS	VULGATA
1 A psalm for Asaph. The God of gods, the Lord hath spoken: and he hath called the earth. From the rising of the sun, to the going down thereof:	1 In finem. Psalmus David,
2 out of Sion the loveliness of his beauty.	2 cum venit ad eum Nathan propheta, quando intravit ad Bethsabee.
3 God shall come manifestly: our God shall come, and shall not keep silence. A fire shall burn before him: and a mighty tempest shall be round about him.	3 Miserere mei, Deus, secundum magnam misericordiam tuam ; et secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum, dele iniquitatem meam.
4 He shall call heaven from above, and the earth, to judge his people.	4 Amplius lava me ab iniquitate mea, et a peccato meo munda me.
5 Gather ye together his saints to him: who set his covenant before sacrifices.	5 Quoniam iniquitatem meam ego cognosco, et peccatum meum contra me est semper.
6 And the heavens shall declare his justice: for God is judge.	6 Tibi soli peccavi, et malum coram te feci ; ut justificeris in sermonibus tuis, et vincas cum judicaris.
7 Hear, O my people, and I will speak: O Israel, and I will testify to thee: I am God, thy God.	7 Ecce enim in iniquitatibus conceptus sum, et in peccatis concepit me mater mea.
8 I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices: and thy burnt offerings are always in my sight.	8 Ecce enim veritatem dilexisti ; incerta et occulta sapientiæ tuæ manifestasti mihi.
9 I will not take calves out of thy house: nor he goats out of thy flocks.	9 Asperges me hyssopo, et mundabor ; lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor.
10 For all the beasts of the woods are mine: the cattle on the hills, and the oxen.	10 Auditui meo dabis gaudium et lætitiam, et exsultabunt ossa humiliata.
11 I know all the fowls of the air: and with me is the beauty of the field.	11 Averte faciem tuam a peccatis meis, et omnes iniquitates meas dele.
12 If I should be hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fulness thereof.	12 Cor mundum crea in me, Deus, et spiritum rectum innova in visceribus meis.
13 Shall I eat the flesh of bullocks? or shall I drink the blood of goats?	13 Ne projicias me a facie tua, et spiritum sanctum tuum ne auferas a me.
14 Offer to God the sacrifice of praise: and pay thy vows to the most High.	14 Redde mihi lætitiam salutaris tui, et spiritu principali confirma me.
15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.	15 Docebo iniquos vias tuas, et impii ad te convertentur.
16 But to the sinner God hath said: Why dost thou declare my justices, and take my covenant in thy mouth ?	16 Libera me de sanguinibus, Deus, Deus salutis meæ, et exsultabit lingua mea justitiam tuam.
17 Seeing thou hast hated discipline: and hast cast my words behind thee.	17 Domine, labia mea aperies, et os meum annuntiabit laudem tuam.
18 If thou didst see a thief thou didst run with him: and with adulterers thou hast been a partaker.	18 Quoniam si voluisses sacrificium, dedissem utique ; holocaustis non delectaberis.
19 Thy mouth hath abounded with evil, and thy tongue framed deceits.	19 Sacrificium Deo spiritus contribulatus ; cor contritum et humiliatum, Deus, non despicies.
20 Sitting thou didst speak against thy brother, and didst lay a scandal against thy mother's son:	20 Benigne fac, Domine, in bona voluntate tua Sion, ut ædificentur muri Jerusalem.
21 these things hast thou done, and I was silent. Thou thoughtest unjustly that I should be like to thee: but I will reprove thee, and set before thy face.	21 Tunc acceptabis sacrificium justitiæ, oblationes et holocausta ; tunc imponent super altare tuum vitulos.
22 Understand these things, you that forget God; lest he snatch you away, and there be none to deliver you.
23 The sacrifice of praise shall glorify me: and there is the way by which I will shew him the salvation of God.
