font
VULGATANEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 In finem, ne disperdas. David in tituli inscriptionem, cum fugeret a facie Saul in speluncam.1 For the director. According to Yonath elem rehoqim. A miktam of David, when the Philistines seized him at Gath.
2 Miserere mei, Deus, miserere mei,
quoniam in te confidit anima mea.
Et in umbra alarum tuarum sperabo,
donec transeat iniquitas.
2 Have mercy on me, God, for I am treated harshly; attackers press me all the day.
3 Clamabo ad Deum altissimum,
Deum qui benefecit mihi.
3 My foes treat me harshly all the day; yes, many are my attackers. O Most High,
4 Misit de cælo, et liberavit me ;
dedit in opprobrium conculcantes me.
Misit Deus misericordiam suam et veritatem suam,
4 when I am afraid, in you I place my trust.
5 et eripuit animam meam de medio catulorum leonum.
Dormivi conturbatus.
Filii hominum dentes eorum arma et sagittæ,
et lingua eorum gladius acutus.
5 God, I praise your promise; in you I trust, I do not fear. What can mere flesh do to me?
6 Exaltare super cælos, Deus,
et in omnem terram gloria tua.
6 All the day they foil my plans; their every thought is of evil against me.
7 Laqueum paraverunt pedibus meis,
et incurvaverunt animam meam.
Foderunt ante faciem meam foveam,
et inciderunt in eam.		7 They hide together in ambush; they watch my every step; they lie in wait for my life.
8 Paratum cor meum, Deus, paratum cor meum ;
cantabo, et psalmum dicam.
8 They are evil; watch them, God! Cast the nations down in your anger!
9 Exsurge, gloria mea ;
exsurge, psalterium et cithara :
exsurgam diluculo.
9 My wanderings you have noted; are my tears not stored in your vial, recorded in your book?
10 Confitebor tibi in populis, Domine,
et psalmum dicam tibi in gentibus :
10 My foes turn back when I call on you. This I know: God is on my side.
11 quoniam magnificata est usque ad cælos misericordia tua,
et usque ad nubes veritas tua.
11 God, I praise your promise;
12 Exaltare super cælos, Deus,
et super omnem terram gloria tua.		12 in you I trust, I do not fear. What can mere mortals do to me?
13 I have made vows to you, God; with offerings I will fulfill them,
14 Once you have snatched me from death, kept my feet from stumbling, That I may walk before God in the light of the living.
