Psalmorum 36
1 in finem servo Domini David dixit iniustus ut delinquat in semet ipso non est timor Dei ante oculos eius
For the Leader. A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD. Transgression speaketh to the wicked, methinks — there is no fear of God before his eyes.
2 quoniam dolose egit in conspectu eius ut inveniatur iniquitas eius ad odium
For it flattereth him in his eyes, until his iniquity be found, and he be hated.
3 verba oris eius iniquitas et dolus noluit intellegere ut bene ageret
The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit; he hath left off to be wise, to do good.
4 iniquitatem meditatus est in cubili suo adstetit omni viae non bonae malitiam autem non odivit
He deviseth iniquity upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.
5 Domine in caelo misericordia tua et veritas tua usque ad nubes
Thy lovingkindness, O LORD, is in the heavens; Thy faithfulness reacheth unto the skies.
6 iustitia tua sicut montes Dei iudicia tua abyssus multa homines et iumenta salvabis Domine
Thy righteousness is like the mighty mountains; Thy judgments are like the great deep; man and beast Thou preservest, O LORD.
7 quemadmodum multiplicasti misericordiam tuam Deus filii autem hominum in tegmine alarum tuarum sperabunt
How precious is Thy lovingkindness, O God! and the children of men take refuge in the shadow of Thy wings.
8 inebriabuntur ab ubertate domus tuae et torrente voluntatis tuae potabis eos
They are abundantly satisfied with the fatness of Thy house; and Thou makest them drink of the river of Thy pleasures.
9 quoniam apud te fons vitae in lumine tuo videbimus lumen
For with Thee is the fountain of life; in Thy light do we see light.
10 praetende misericordiam tuam scientibus te et iustitiam tuam his qui recto sunt corde
O continue Thy lovingkindness unto them that know Thee; and Thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 non veniat mihi pes superbiae et manus peccatoris non moveat me
Let not the foot of pride overtake me, and let not the hand of the wicked 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 are not able to rise.
