Psalmorum 5
1 In finem pro ea, quæ hereditatem consequitur, Psalmus David. Verba mea auribus percipe Domine, intellige clamorem meum.
For the Chief Musician; with the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)
2 Intende voci orationis meæ, rex meus et Deus meus.
Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee do I pray.
3 Quoniam ad te orabo: Domine mane exaudies vocem meam.
O LORD, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; in the morning will I order [my prayer] unto thee, and will keep watch.
4 Mane astabo tibi et videbo: quoniam non Deus volens iniquitatem tu es.
For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: evil shall not sojourn with thee.
5 Neque habitabit iuxta te malignus: neque permanebunt iniusti ante oculos tuos.
The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
6 Odisti omnes, qui operantur iniquitatem: perdes omnes, qui loquuntur mendacium. Virum sanguinum et dolosum abominabitur Dominus:
Thou shalt destroy them that speak lies: the LORD abhorreth the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
7 ego autem in multitudine misericordiæ tuæ. Introibo in domum tuam: adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum in timore tuo.
But as for me, in the multitude of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house: in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
8 Domine deduc me in iustitia tua: propter inimicos meos dirige in conspectu tuo viam meam.
Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way plain before my face.
9 Quoniam non est in ore eorum veritas: cor eorum vanum est.
For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness: their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
10 Sepulchrum patens est guttur eorum, linguis suis dolose agebant, iudica illos Deus. Decidant a cogitationibus suis, secundum multitudinem impietatum eorum expelle eos, quoniam irritaverunt te Domine.
Hold them guilty, O God; let them fall by their own counsels: thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
11 Et lætentur omnes, qui sperant in te, in æternum exultabunt: et habitabis in eis. Et gloriabuntur in te omnes, qui diligunt nomen tuum,
But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice, let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
12 quoniam tu benedices iusto. Domine, ut scuto bonæ voluntatis tuæ coronasti nos.
For thou wilt bless the righteous; O LORD, thou wilt compass him with favour as with a shield.
