< Psalmorum 62 >

1 Psalmus David, in finem, pro Idithum. Nonne Deo subiecta erit anima mea? ab ipso enim salutare meum.
To the chief Musician. On Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. Upon God alone doth my soul rest peacefully; from him is my salvation.
2 Nam et ipse Deus meus, et salutaris meus: susceptor meus, non movebor amplius.
He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be greatly moved.
3 Quousque irruitis in hominem? interficitis universi vos: tamquam parieti inclinato et maceriae depulsae.
How long will ye assail a man; will ye [seek], all of you, to break him down as a bowing wall or a tottering fence?
4 Verumtamen pretium meum cogitaverunt repellere, cucurri in siti: ore suo benedicebant, et corde suo maledicebant.
They only consult to thrust [him] down from his excellency; they delight in lies; they bless with their mouth, but in their inward part they curse. (Selah)
5 Verumtamen Deo subiecta esto anima mea: quoniam ab ipso patientia mea.
Upon God alone, O my soul, rest peacefully; for my expectation is from him.
6 Quia ipse Deus meus, et salvator meus: adiutor meus, non emigrabo.
He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be moved.
7 In Deo salutare meum, et gloria mea: Deus auxilii mei, et spes mea in Deo est.
With God is my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength, my refuge is in God.
8 Sperate in eo omnis congregatio populi, effundite coram illo corda vestra: Deus adiutor noster in aeternum.
Confide in him at all times, ye people; pour out your heart before him: God is our refuge. (Selah)
9 Verumtamen vani filii hominum, mendaces filii hominum in stateris: ut decipiant ipsi de vanitate in idipsum.
Men of low degree are only vanity; men of high degree, a lie: laid in the balance, they go up together [lighter] than vanity.
10 Nolite sperare in iniquitate, et rapinas nolite concupiscere: divitiae si affluant, nolite cor apponere.
Put not confidence in oppression, and become not vain in robbery; if wealth increase, set not your heart upon it.
11 Semel locutus est Deus, duo haec audivi, quia potestas Dei est,
Once hath God spoken, twice have I heard this, that strength [belongeth] unto God.
12 et tibi Domine misericordia: quia tu reddes unicuique iuxta opera sua.
And unto thee, O Lord, [belongeth] loving-kindness; for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
