< Psalmorum 5 >
1 Psalmus David, pro ea, quae hereditatem accepit. Verba mea auribus percipe Domine, intellige clamorem meum.
Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)
2 Intende voci orationis meae, rex meus et Deus meus.
Listen to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for to you will I pray.
3 Quoniam ad te orabo: Domine mane exaudies vocem meam.
My voice shall you hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer to 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 has pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with you.
5 Neque habitabit iuxta te malignus: neque permanebunt iniusti ante oculos tuos.
The foolish shall not stand in your sight: you hate all workers of iniquity.
6 Odisti omnes, qui operantur iniquitatem: perdes omnes, qui loquuntur mendacium. Virum sanguinum et dolosum abominabitur Dominus:
You shall destroy them that speak leasing: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
7 ego autem in multitudine misericordiae tuae. Introibo in domum tuam: adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum in timore tuo.
But as for me, I will come into your house in the multitude of your mercy: and in your fear will I worship 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 my enemies; make your way straight before my face.
9 Quoniam non est in ore eorum veritas: cor eorum vanum est.
For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulcher; they flatter with their tongue.
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.
Destroy you them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against you.
11 Et laetentur omnes, qui sperant in te, in aeternum exultabunt: et habitabis in eis. Et gloriabuntur in te omnes, qui diligunt nomen tuum,
But let all those that put their trust in you rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because you defend them: let them also that love your name be joyful in you.
12 quoniam tu benedices iusto. Domine, ut scuto bonae voluntatis tuae coronasti nos.
For you, LORD, will bless the righteous; with favor will you compass him as with a shield.
