Psalmorum 36
1 In finem. Servo Domini ipsi David. Dixit injustus ut delinquat in semetipso: non est timor Dei ante oculos ejus.
The transgression of the wicked man says within my heart, There is no fear of God before his eyes.
2 Quoniam dolose egit in conspectu ejus, ut inveniatur iniquitas ejus ad odium.
For he flatters himself in his own eyes, that his iniquity will not be found out and be hated.
3 Verba oris ejus iniquitas, et dolus; noluit intelligere ut bene ageret.
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit. He has ceased to be wise and to do good.
4 Iniquitatem meditatus est in cubili suo; astitit omni viæ non bonæ: malitiam autem non odivit.
He devises iniquity upon his bed. He sets himself in a way that is not good. He does not abhor evil.
5 Domine, in cælo misericordia tua, et veritas tua usque ad nubes.
Thy loving kindness, O Jehovah, is in the heavens, thy faithfulness to the skies.
6 Justitia tua sicut montes Dei; judicia tua abyssus multa. Homines et jumenta salvabis, Domine,
Thy righteousness is like the mountains of God. Thy judgments are a great deep. O Jehovah, thou preserve 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, and the sons of men take refuge under the shadow of thy wings.
8 Inebriabuntur ab ubertate domus tuæ, et torrente voluptatis tuæ potabis eos:
They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house, and thou will make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
9 quoniam apud te est fons vitæ, et in lumine tuo videbimus lumen.
For with thee is the fountain of life. In thy light we shall see light.
10 Prætende misericordiam tuam scientibus te, et justitiam tuam his qui recto sunt corde.
O continue thy loving kindness to those who know thee, and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 Non veniat mihi pes superbiæ, et manus peccatoris non moveat me.
Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of sinners drive me away.
12 Ibi ceciderunt qui operantur iniquitatem; expulsi sunt, nec potuerunt stare.
There are the workers of iniquity fallen. They are thrust down, and shall not be able to rise.
