< Psalmorum 62 >
1 Psalmus David, in finem, pro Idithum. Nonne Deo subiecta erit anima mea? ab ipso enim salutare meum.
To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him [cometh] my salvation.
2 Nam et ipse Deus meus, et salutaris meus: susceptor meus, non movebor amplius.
He only [is] my rock and my salvation; [he is] my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.
3 Quousque irruitis in hominem? interficitis universi vos: tamquam parieti inclinato et maceriae depulsae.
How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall [shall ye be, and as] a tottering fence.
4 Verumtamen pretium meum cogitaverunt repellere, cucurri in siti: ore suo benedicebant, et corde suo maledicebant.
They only consult to cast [him] down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)
5 Verumtamen Deo subiecta esto anima mea: quoniam ab ipso patientia mea.
My soul, wait thou only upon God; 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: [he is] my defence; I shall not be moved.
7 In Deo salutare meum, et gloria mea: Deus auxilii mei, et spes mea in Deo est.
In God [is] my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, [and] my refuge, [is] in God.
8 Sperate in eo omnis congregatio populi, effundite coram illo corda vestra: Deus adiutor noster in aeternum.
Trust in him at all times; [ye] people, pour out your heart before him: God [is] a refuge for us. (Selah)
9 Verumtamen vani filii hominum, mendaces filii hominum in stateris: ut decipiant ipsi de vanitate in idipsum.
Surely men of low degree [are] vanity, [and] men of high degree [are] a lie: to be laid in the balance, they [are] altogether [lighter] than vanity.
10 Nolite sperare in iniquitate, et rapinas nolite concupiscere: divitiae si affluant, nolite cor apponere.
Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart [upon them].
11 Semel locutus est Deus, duo haec audivi, quia potestas Dei est,
God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power [belongeth] unto God.
12 et tibi Domine misericordia: quia tu reddes unicuique iuxta opera sua.
Also unto thee, O Lord, [belongeth] mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
