NOVA VULGATANEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 David.
Dominus illuminatio mea et salus mea; quem timebo?
Dominus protector vitae meae; a quo trepidabo?
1 Of David The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom do I fear? The LORD is my life's refuge; of whom am I afraid?
2 Dum appropiant super me nocentes,
ut edant carnes meas;
qui tribulant me et inimici mei,
ipsi infirmati sunt et ceciderunt.
2 When evildoers come at me to devour my flesh, These my enemies and foes themselves stumble and fall.
3 Si consistant adversum me castra,
non timebit cor meum;
si exsurgat adversum me proelium, in hoc ego sperabo.
3 Though an army encamp against me, my heart does not fear; Though war be waged against me, even then do I trust.
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 ask of the LORD; this I seek: To dwell in the LORD'S house all the days of my life, To gaze on the LORD'S beauty, to 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 God will hide me in his shelter in time of trouble, Will conceal me in the cover of his tent; and set me high upon a rock.
6 Et nunc exaltatur caput meum
super inimicos meos in circuitu meo.
Immolabo in tabernaculo eius hostias vociferationis,
cantabo et psalmum dicam Domino.
6 Even now my head is held high above my enemies on every side! I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and chant praise to the LORD.
7 Exaudi, Domine, vocem meam, qua clamavi;
miserere mei et exaudi me.
7 I Hear my voice, LORD, when I call; have mercy on me and answer me.
8 De te dixit cor meum: “ Exquirite faciem meam! ”.
Faciem tuam, Domine, exquiram.
8 "Come," says my heart, "seek God's face"; your face, LORD, do I 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 Do not hide your face from me; do not repel your servant in anger. You are my help; do not cast me off; do not forsake me, God my savior!
10 Quoniam pater meus et mater mea dereliquerunt me,
Dominus autem assumpsit me.
10 Even if my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will take me in.
11 Ostende mihi, Domine, viam tuam
et dirige me in semitam rectam propter inimicos meos.
11 LORD, show me your way; lead me on a level path because of my enemies.
12 Ne tradideris me in animam tribulantium me,
quoniam insurrexerunt in me testes iniqui,
et qui violentiam spirant.
12 Do not abandon me to the will of my foes; malicious and lying witnesses have risen against me.
13 Credo videre bona Domini in terra viventium.
13 But I believe I shall enjoy the LORD'S goodness in the land of the living.
14 Exspecta Dominum, viriliter age,
et confortetur cor tuum, et sustine Dominum.
14 Wait for the LORD, take courage; be stouthearted, wait for the LORD!
