Psalmorum 5
1 In finem, pro ea quæ hæreditatem consequitur. Psalmus David. Verba mea auribus percipe, Domine; intellige clamorem meum.
To the Overseer, 'Concerning the Inheritances.' — A Psalm of David. My sayings hear, O Jehovah, Consider my (meditation)
2 Intende voci orationis meæ, rex meus et Deus meus.
Be attentive to the voice of my cry, My king and my God, For unto Thee I pray habitually.
3 Quoniam ad te orabo, Domine: mane exaudies vocem meam.
Jehovah, [at] morning Thou hearest my voice, [At] morning I set in array for Thee, And I look out.
4 Mane astabo tibi, et videbo quoniam non Deus volens iniquitatem tu es.
For not a God desiring wickedness [art] Thou, Evil inhabiteth Thee not.
5 Neque habitabit juxta te malignus, neque permanebunt injusti ante oculos tuos.
The boastful station not themselves before Thine eyes: Thou hast hated all working iniquity.
6 Odisti omnes qui operantur iniquitatem; perdes omnes qui loquuntur mendacium. Virum sanguinum et dolosum abominabitur Dominus.
Thou destroyest those speaking lies, A man of blood and deceit Jehovah doth abominate.
7 Ego autem in multitudine misericordiæ tuæ introibo in domum tuam; adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum in timore tuo.
And I, in the abundance of Thy kindness, I enter Thy house, I bow myself toward Thy holy temple in Thy fear.
8 Domine, deduc me in justitia tua: propter inimicos meos dirige in conspectu tuo viam meam.
O Jehovah, lead me in Thy righteousness, Because of those observing me, Make straight before me Thy way,
9 Quoniam non est in ore eorum veritas; cor eorum vanum est.
For there is no stability in their mouth. Their heart [is] mischiefs, An open grave [is] their throat, Their tongue they make smooth.
10 Sepulchrum patens est guttur eorum; linguis suis dolose agebant: judica illos, Deus. Decidant a cogitationibus suis; secundum multitudinem impietatum eorum expelle eos, quoniam irritaverunt te, Domine.
Declare them guilty, O God, Let them fall from their own counsels, In the abundance of their transgressions Drive them away, Because they have rebelled against Thee.
11 Et lætentur omnes qui sperant in te; in æternum exsultabunt, et habitabis in eis. Et gloriabuntur in te omnes qui diligunt nomen tuum,
And rejoice do all trusting in Thee, To the age they sing, and Thou coverest them over, And those loving Thy name exult in Thee.
12 quoniam tu benedices justo. Domine, ut scuto bonæ voluntatis tuæ coronasti nos.
For Thou blessest the righteous, O Jehovah, As a buckler with favour dost compass him!
