Salmi 27

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 David. Dominus illuminatio mea et salus mea; quem timebo? Dominus protector vitae meae; a quo trepidabo?	1 The psalm of David before he was anointed. The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The Lord is the protector of my life: of whom shall I be afraid?
2 Dum appropiant super me nocentes, ut edant carnes meas; qui tribulant me et inimici mei, ipsi infirmati sunt et ceciderunt.	2 Whilst the wicked draw near against me, to eat my flesh. My enemies that trouble me, have themselves been weakened, and have fallen.
3 Si consistant adversum me castra, non timebit cor meum; si exsurgat adversum me proelium, in hoc ego sperabo.	3 If armies in camp should stand together against me, my heart shall not fear. If a battle should rise up against me, in this will I be confident.
4 Unum petii a Domino, hoc requiram: ut inhabitem in domo Domini omnibus diebus vitae meae, ut videam voluptatem Domini et visitem templum eius.	4 One thing I have asked of the Lord, this will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life. That I may see the delight of the Lord, and may visit his temple.
5 Quoniam occultabit me in tentorio suo in die malorum. Abscondet me in abscondito tabernaculi sui, in petra exaltabit me.	5 For he hath hidden me in his tabernacle; in the day of evils, he hath protected me in the secret place of his tabernacle.
6 Et nunc exaltatur caput meum super inimicos meos in circuitu meo. Immolabo in tabernaculo eius hostias vociferationis, cantabo et psalmum dicam Domino.	6 He hath exalted me upon a rock: and now he hath lifted up my head above my enemies. I have gone round, and have offered up in his tabernacle a sacrifice of jubilation: I will sing, and recite a psalm to the Lord.
7 Exaudi, Domine, vocem meam, qua clamavi; miserere mei et exaudi me.	7 Hear, O Lord, my voice, with which I have cried to thee: have mercy on me and hear me.
8 De te dixit cor meum: “ Exquirite faciem meam! ”. Faciem tuam, Domine, exquiram.	8 My heart hath said to thee: My face hath sought thee: thy face, O Lord, will I still seek.
9 Ne avertas faciem tuam a me, ne declines in ira a servo tuo. Adiutor meus es tu, ne me reicias neque derelinquas me, Deus salutis meae.	9 Turn not away thy face from me; decline not in thy wrath from thy servant. Be thou my helper, forsake me not; do not thou despise me, O God my Saviour.
10 Quoniam pater meus et mater mea dereliquerunt me, Dominus autem assumpsit me.	10 For my father and my mother have left me: but the Lord hath taken me up.
11 Ostende mihi, Domine, viam tuam et dirige me in semitam rectam propter inimicos meos.	11 Set me, O Lord, a law in thy way, and guide me in the right path, because of my enemies.
12 Ne tradideris me in animam tribulantium me, quoniam insurrexerunt in me testes iniqui, et qui violentiam spirant.	12 Deliver me not over to the will of them that trouble me; for unjust witnesses have risen up against me; and iniquity hath lied to itself.
13 Credo videre bona Domini in terra viventium.	13 I believe to see the good things of the Lord in the land of the living.
14 Exspecta Dominum, viriliter age, et confortetur cor tuum, et sustine Dominum.	14 Expect the Lord, do manfully, and let thy heart take courage, and wait thou for the Lord.
