Salmi 39

NOVA VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Magistro chori, Idithun. Psalmus. David.	1 I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me.
2 Dixi: “ Custodiam vias meas, ut non delinquam in lingua mea; ponam ori meo custodiam, donec consistit peccator adversum me ”.	2 I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.
3 Tacens obmutui et silui absque ullo bono, et dolor meus renovatus est.	3 My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,
4 Concaluit cor meum intra me, et in meditatione mea exarsit ignis.	4 LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am.
5 Locutus sum in lingua mea: “ Notum fac mihi, Domine, finem meum; et numerum dierum meorum quis est, ut sciam quam brevis sit vita mea ”.	5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.
6 Ecce paucorum palmorum fecisti dies meos, et spatium vitae meae tamquam nihilum ante te. Etenim universa vanitas omnis homo constitutus est.	6 Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
7 Etenim ut imago pertransit homo. Etenim vanitas est et concitatur; thesaurizat et ignorat quis congregabit ea.	7 And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.
8 Et nunc quae est exspectatio mea, Domine? Spes mea apud te est.	8 Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish.
9 Ab omnibus iniquitatibus meis erue me, opprobrium insipienti ne ponas me.	9 I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it.
10 Obmutui et non aperiam os meum, quoniam tu fecisti.	10 Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand.
11 Amove a me plagas tuas: ab ictu manus tuae ego defeci.	11 When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
12 In increpationibus, propter iniquitatem, corripuisti hominem, et tabescere fecisti, sicut tinea, desiderabilia eius. Etenim vanitas omnis homo.	12 Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were.
13 Exaudi orationem meam, Domine, et clamorem meum auribus percipe. Ad lacrimas meas ne obsurdescas, quoniam advena ego sum apud te, peregrinus sicut omnes patres mei.	13 O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.
14 Avertere a me, ut refrigerer, priusquam abeam et non sim amplius.
