Psalms 40
1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. I waited patiently for the LORD; and He inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
in finem David psalmus expectans expectavi Dominum et intendit mihi
2 He brought me up also out of the tumultuous pit, out of the miry clay; and He set my feet upon a rock, He established my goings.
et exaudivit preces meas et eduxit me de lacu miseriae et de luto fecis et statuit super petram pedes meos et direxit gressus meos
3 And He hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God; many shall see, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
et inmisit in os meum canticum novum carmen Deo nostro videbunt multi et timebunt et sperabunt in Domino
4 Happy is the man that hath made the LORD his trust, and hath not turned unto the arrogant, nor unto such as fall away treacherously.
beatus vir cuius est nomen Domini spes ipsius et non respexit in vanitates et insanias falsas
5 Many things hast Thou done, O LORD my God, even Thy wonderful works, and Thy thoughts toward us; there is none to be compared unto Thee! If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be told.
multa fecisti tu Domine Deus meus mirabilia tua et cogitationibus tuis non est qui similis sit tibi adnuntiavi et locutus sum multiplicati sunt super numerum
6 Sacrifice and meal-offering Thou hast no delight in; mine ears hast Thou opened; burnt-offering and sin-offering hast Thou not required.
sacrificium et oblationem noluisti aures autem perfecisti mihi holocaustum et pro peccato non postulasti
7 Then said I: 'Lo, I am come with the roll of a book which is prescribed for me;
tunc dixi ecce venio in capite libri scriptum est de me
8 I delight to do Thy will, O my God; yea, Thy law is in my inmost parts.'
ut facerem voluntatem tuam Deus meus volui et legem tuam in medio cordis mei
9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation, lo, I did not refrain my lips; O LORD, Thou knowest.
adnuntiavi iustitiam in ecclesia magna ecce labia mea non prohibebo Domine tu scisti
10 I have not hid Thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared Thy faithfulness and Thy salvation; I have not concealed Thy mercy and Thy truth from the great congregation.
iustitiam tuam non abscondi in corde meo veritatem tuam et salutare tuum dixi non abscondi misericordiam tuam et veritatem tuam a concilio multo
11 Thou, O LORD, wilt not withhold Thy compassions from me; let Thy mercy and Thy truth continually preserve me.
tu autem Domine ne longe facias miserationes tuas a me misericordia tua et veritas tua semper susceperunt me
12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about, mine iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart hath failed me.
quoniam circumdederunt me mala quorum non est numerus conprehenderunt me iniquitates meae et non potui ut viderem multiplicatae sunt super capillos capitis mei et cor meum dereliquit me
13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; O LORD, make haste to help me.
conplaceat tibi Domine ut eruas me Domine ad adiuvandum me respice
14 Let them be ashamed and abashed together that seek after my soul to sweep it away; let them be turned backward and brought to confusion that delight in my hurt.
confundantur et revereantur simul qui quaerunt animam meam ut auferant eam convertantur retrorsum et revereantur qui volunt mihi mala
15 Let them be appalled by reason of their shame that say unto me: 'Aha, aha.'
ferant confestim confusionem suam qui dicunt mihi euge euge
16 Let all those that seek Thee rejoice and be glad in Thee; let such as love Thy salvation say continually: 'The LORD be magnified.'
exultent et laetentur super te omnes quaerentes te et dicant semper magnificetur Dominus qui diligunt salutare tuum
17 But, as for me, that am poor and needy, the Lord will account it unto me; Thou art my help and my deliverer; O my God, tarry not.
ego autem mendicus sum et pauper Dominus sollicitus est mei adiutor meus et protector meus tu es Deus meus ne tardaveris
