Psalms 16

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	NOVA VULGATA
1 A Prayer of David. Lord, listen to my justice, attend to my supplication. Pay attention to my prayer, which is not from deceitful lips.	1 Miktam. David. Conserva me, Deus, quoniam speravi in te.
2 Let my judgment proceed from your presence. Let your eyes behold fairness.	2 Dixi Domino: “ Dominus meus es tu, bonum mihi non est sine te ”.
3 You have tested my heart and visited it by night. You have examined me by fire, and iniquity has not been found in me.	3 In sanctos, qui sunt in terra, inclitos viros, omnis voluntas mea in eos.
4 Therefore, may my mouth not speak the works of men. I have kept to difficult ways because of the words of your lips.	4 Multiplicantur dolores eorum, qui post deos alienos acceleraverunt. Non effundam libationes eorum de sanguinibus neque assumam nomina eorum in labiis meis.
5 Perfect my steps in your paths, so that my footsteps may not be disturbed.	5 Dominus pars hereditatis meae et calicis mei: tu es qui detines sortem meam.
6 I have cried out because you, O God, have listened to me. Incline your ear to me and heed my words.	6 Funes ceciderunt mihi in praeclaris; insuper et hereditas mea speciosa est mihi.
7 Make your mercies wonderful, for you save those who hope in you.	7 Benedicam Dominum, qui tribuit mihi intellectum; insuper et in noctibus erudierunt me renes mei.
8 From those who resist your right hand, preserve me like the pupil of your eye. Protect me under the shadow of your wings,	8 Proponebam Dominum in conspectu meo semper; quoniam a dextris est mihi, non commovebor.
9 from the face of the impious who have afflicted me. My enemies have surrounded my soul.	9 Propter hoc laetatum est cor meum, et exsultaverunt praecordia mea; insuper et caro mea requiescet in spe.
10 They have concealed their fatness; their mouth has been speaking arrogantly.	10 Quoniam non derelinques animam meam in inferno nec dabis sanctum tuum videre corruptionem.
11 They have cast me out, and now they have surrounded me. They have cast their eyes down to the earth.	11 Notas mihi facies vias vitae, plenitudinem laetitiae cum vultu tuo, delectationes in dextera tua usque in finem.
12 They have taken me, like a lion ready for the prey, and like a young lion dwelling in hiding.
13 Rise up, O Lord, arrive before him and displace him. Deliver my soul from the impious one: your spear from the enemies of your hand.
14 Lord, divide them from the few of the earth in their life. Their gut has been filled from your hidden stores. They have been filled with sons, and they have bequeathed to their little ones the remainder.
15 But as for me, I will appear before your sight in justice. I will be satisfied when your glory appears.
