VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Laus cantici David. Qui habitat in adjutorio Altissimi,
in protectione Dei cæli commorabitur.
1 LORD, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 Dicet Domino : Susceptor meus es tu, et refugium meum ;
Deus meus, sperabo in eum.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
3 Quoniam ipse liberavit me de laqueo venantium,
et a verbo aspero.
3 Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
4 Scapulis suis obumbrabit tibi,
et sub pennis ejus sperabis.
4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 Scuto circumdabit te veritas ejus :
non timebis a timore nocturno ;
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
6 a sagitta volante in die,
a negotio perambulante in tenebris,
ab incursu, et dæmonio meridiano.
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
7 Cadent a latere tuo mille, et decem millia a dextris tuis ;
ad te autem non appropinquabit.
7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
8 Verumtamen oculis tuis considerabis,
et retributionem peccatorum videbis.
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 Quoniam tu es, Domine, spes mea ;
Altissimum posuisti refugium tuum.
9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.
10 Non accedet ad te malum,
et flagellum non appropinquabit tabernaculo tuo.
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
11 Quoniam angelis suis mandavit de te,
ut custodiant te in omnibus viis tuis.
11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
12 In manibus portabunt te,
ne forte offendas ad lapidem pedem tuum.
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
13 Super aspidem et basiliscum ambulabis,
et conculcabis leonem et draconem.
13 Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
14 Quoniam in me speravit, liberabo eum ;
protegam eum, quoniam cognovit nomen meum.
14 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Clamabit ad me, et ego exaudiam eum ;
cum ipso sum in tribulatione :
eripiam eum, et glorificabo eum.
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.
16 Longitudine dierum replebo eum,
et ostendam illi salutare meum.
16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.
17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
