Psalmorum 5

1 In finem pro ea, quæ hereditatem consequitur, Psalmus David. Verba mea auribus percipe Domine, intellige clamorem meum.

For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning her that inherits. Listen to my words, O Lord, attend to my cry.

2 Intende voci orationis meæ, Rex meus et Deus meus.

Attend to the voice of my supplication, my King, and my God: for to you, O Lord, will I pray.

3 Quoniam ad te orabo: Domine mane exaudies vocem meam.

In the morning you shall hear my voice: in the morning will I wait upon you, and will look up.

4 Mane astabo tibi et videbo: quoniam non Deus volens iniquitatem tu es.

For you are not a god that desires iniquity; neither shall the worker of wickedness dwell with you.

5 Neque habitabit iuxta te malignus: neque permanebunt iniusti ante oculos tuos.

Neither shall the transgressors continue in your sight: you hate, O Lord, all them that work iniquity.

6 Odisti omnes, qui operantur iniquitatem: perdes omnes, qui loquuntur mendacium. Virum sanguinum et dolosum abominabitur Dominus:

You will destroy all that speak falsehood: the Lord abhors the bloody and deceitful man.

7 ego autem in multitudine misericordiæ tuæ. Introibo in domum tuam: adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum in timore tuo.

But I will enter into your house in the multitude of your mercy: I will worship in your fear toward your holy temple.

8 Domine deduc me in iustitia tua: propter inimicos meos dirige in conspectu tuo viam meam.

Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness because of mine enemies; make my way plain before your face.

9 Quoniam non est in ore eorum veritas: cor eorum vanum est.

For there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain; their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit.

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.

Judge them, O God; let them fail of their counsels: cast them out according to the abundance of their ungodliness; for they have provoked you, O Lord.

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 that trust on you be glad in you: they shall exult for ever, and you shall dwell among them; and all that love your name shall rejoice in you.

12 quoniam tu benedices iusto. Domine, ut scuto bonæ voluntatis tuæ coronasti nos.

For you, Lord, shall bless the righteous: you have compassed us as with a shield of favor.
