VULGATADOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Intellectus David, cum esset in spelunca, oratio.1 Unto the end, a psalm for David.
2 Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi,
voce mea ad Dominum deprecatus sum.
2 Deliver me, O Lord, from the evil man: rescue me from the unjust man.
3 Effundo in conspectu ejus orationem meam,
et tribulationem meam ante ipsum pronuntio :
3 Who have devised iniquities in their hearts: all the day long they designed battles.
4 in deficiendo ex me spiritum meum,
et tu cognovisti semitas meas.
In via hac qua ambulabam
absconderunt laqueum mihi.
4 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent: the venom of saps is under their lips.
5 Considerabam ad dexteram, et videbam,
et non erat qui cognosceret me :
periit fuga a me,
et non est qui requirat animam meam.
5 Keep me, O Lord, from the hand of the wicked: and from unjust men deliver me. Who have proposed to supplant my steps.
6 Clamavi ad te, Domine ;
dixi : Tu es spes mea,
portio mea in terra viventium.
6 the proud have hidden a net for me. And they have stretched out cords for a snare: they have laid for me a stumblingblock by the wayside.
7 Intende ad deprecationem meam,
quia humiliatus sum nimis.
Libera me a persequentibus me,
quia confortati sunt super me.
7 I said to the Lord: Thou art my God: hear, O Lord, the voice of my supplication.
8 Educ de custodia animam meam
ad confitendum nomini tuo ;
me exspectant justi donec retribuas mihi.		8 O Lord, Lord, the strength of my salvation: thou hast overshadowed my head in the day of battle.
9 Give me not up, O Lord, from my desire to the wicked: they have plotted against me; do not thou forsake me, lest they should triumph.
10 The head of them compassing me about: the labour of their lips shall overwhelm them.
11 Burning coals shall fall upon them; thou wilt cast them down into the fire: in miseries they shall not be able to stand.
12 A man full of tongue shall not be established in the earth: evil shall catch the unjust man unto destruction.
13 I know that the Lord will do justice to the needy, and will revenge the poor.
14 But as for the just, they shall give glory to thy name: and the upright shall dwell with thy countenance.
