< Psalmorum 36 >

1 in finem servo Domini David dixit iniustus ut delinquat in semet ipso non est timor Dei ante oculos eius
To the chief Musician. [A Psalm] of the servant of Jehovah; of David. The transgression of the wicked uttereth within my heart, There is no fear of God before his eyes.
2 quoniam dolose egit in conspectu eius ut inveniatur iniquitas eius ad odium
For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, [even] when his iniquity is found to be hateful.
3 verba oris eius iniquitas et dolus noluit intellegere ut bene ageret
The words of his mouth are wickedness and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, to do good.
4 iniquitatem meditatus est in cubili suo adstetit omni viae non bonae malitiam autem non odivit
He deviseth wickedness up on his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good: he abhorreth not evil.
5 Domine in caelo misericordia tua et veritas tua usque ad nubes
Jehovah, thy loving-kindness is in the heavens, and thy faithfulness [reacheth] unto the clouds.
6 iustitia tua sicut montes Dei iudicia tua abyssus multa homines et iumenta salvabis Domine
Thy righteousness is like the high mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: thou, Jehovah, preservest man and beast.
7 quemadmodum multiplicasti misericordiam tuam Deus filii autem hominum in tegmine alarum tuarum sperabunt
How precious is thy loving-kindness, O God! So the sons of men take refuge under the shadow of thy wings.
8 inebriabuntur ab ubertate domus tuae et torrente voluntatis tuae potabis eos
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou wilt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
9 quoniam apud te fons vitae in lumine tuo videbimus lumen
For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.
10 praetende misericordiam tuam scientibus te et iustitiam tuam his qui recto sunt corde
Continue thy loving-kindness unto them that know thee, and thy righteousness to the upright in heart;
11 non veniat mihi pes superbiae et manus peccatoris non moveat me
Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked drive me away.
12 ibi ceciderunt qui operantur iniquitatem expulsi sunt nec potuerunt stare
There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and are not able to rise.
