Psalmorum 56
1 In finem, pro populo qui a sanctis longe factus est. David in tituli inscriptionem, cum tenuerunt eum Allophyli in Geth. [Miserere mei, Deus, quoniam conculcavit me homo; tota die impugnans, tribulavit me.
BE merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.
2 Conculcaverunt me inimici mei tota die, quoniam multi bellantes adversum me.
Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.
3 Ab altitudine diei timebo: ego vero in te sperabo.
What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
4 In Deo laudabo sermones meos; in Deo speravi: non timebo quid faciat mihi caro.
In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.
5 Tota die verba mea execrabantur; adversum me omnes cogitationes eorum in malum.
Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.
6 Inhabitabunt, et abscondent; ipsi calcaneum meum observabunt. Sicut sustinuerunt animam meam,
They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.
7 pro nihilo salvos facies illos; in ira populos confringes.
Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.
8 Deus, vitam meam annuntiavi tibi; posuisti lacrimas meas in conspectu tuo, sicut et in promissione tua:
Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?
9 tunc convertentur inimici mei retrorsum. In quacumque die invocavero te, ecce cognovi quoniam Deus meus es.
When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.
10 In Deo laudabo verbum; in Domino laudabo sermonem.
In God will I praise his word: in the Lord will I praise his word.
11 In Deo speravi: non timebo quid faciat mihi homo.
In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
12 In me sunt, Deus, vota tua, quæ reddam, laudationes tibi:
Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.
13 quoniam eripuisti animam meam de morte, et pedes meos de lapsu, ut placeam coram Deo in lumine viventium.
For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?
