VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 In finem. Psalmus David.	1 For the leader. A psalm of David.
2 Domine, in virtute tua lætabitur rex, et super salutare tuum exsultabit vehementer.	2 The LORD answer you in time of distress; the name of the God of Jacob defend you!
3 Desiderium cordis ejus tribuisti ei, et voluntate labiorum ejus non fraudasti eum.	3 May God send you help from the temple, from Zion be your support.
4 Quoniam prævenisti eum in benedictionibus dulcedinis ; posuisti in capite ejus coronam de lapide pretioso.	4 May God remember your every offering, graciously accept your holocaust, Selah
5 Vitam petiit a te, et tribuisti ei longitudinem dierum, in sæculum, et in sæculum sæculi.	5 Grant what is in your heart, fulfill your every plan.
6 Magna est gloria ejus in salutari tuo ; gloriam et magnum decorem impones super eum.	6 May we shout for joy at your victory, raise the banners in the name of our God. The LORD grant your every prayer!
7 Quoniam dabis eum in benedictionem in sæculum sæculi ; lætificabis eum in gaudio cum vultu tuo.	7 Now I know victory is given to the anointed of the LORD. God will answer him from the holy heavens with a strong arm that brings victory.
8 Quoniam rex sperat in Domino, et in misericordia Altissimi non commovebitur.	8 Some rely on chariots, others on horses, but we on the name of the LORD our God.
9 Inveniatur manus tua omnibus inimicis tuis ; dextera tua inveniat omnes qui te oderunt.	9 They collapse and fall, but we stand strong and firm.
10 Pones eos ut clibanum ignis in tempore vultus tui : Dominus in ira sua conturbabit eos, et devorabit eos ignis.	10 LORD, grant victory to the king; answer when we call upon you.
11 Fructum eorum de terra perdes, et semen eorum a filiis hominum,
12 quoniam declinaverunt in te mala ; cogitaverunt consilia quæ non potuerunt stabilire.
13 Quoniam pones eos dorsum ; in reliquiis tuis præparabis vultum eorum.
14 Exaltare, Domine, in virtute tua ; cantabimus et psallemus virtutes tuas.
