Psalmorum 56
1 in finem pro populo qui a sanctis longe factus est David in tituli inscriptione cum tenuerunt eum Allophili in Geth miserere mei Deus quoniam conculcavit me homo tota die inpugnans tribulavit me
For the Leader; upon Jonath-elem-rehokim. A Psalm of David; Michtam; when the Philistines took him in Gath. Be gracious unto me, O God, for man would swallow me up; all the day he fighting oppresseth me.
2 conculcaverunt me inimici mei tota die quoniam multi bellantes adversum me
They that lie in wait for me would swallow me up all the day; for they are many that fight against me, O Most High,
3 ab altitudine diei timebo ego vero in te sperabo
In the day that I am afraid, I will put my trust in Thee.
4 in Deo laudabo sermones meos in Deo speravi non timebo quid faciat mihi caro
In God — I will praise His word — in God do I trust, I will not be afraid; what can flesh do unto me?
5 tota die verba mea execrabantur adversum me omnia consilia eorum in malum
All the day they trouble mine affairs; all their thoughts are against me for evil.
6 inhabitabunt et abscondent ipsi calcaneum meum observabunt sicut sustinuerunt animam meam
They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps; according as they have waited for my soul.
7 pro nihilo salvos facies illos in ira populos confringes Deus
Because of iniquity cast them out; in anger bring down the peoples, O God.
8 vitam meam adnuntiavi tibi posuisti lacrimas meas in conspectu tuo sicut et in promissione tua
Thou has counted my wanderings; put Thou my tears into Thy bottle; are they not in Thy book?
9 tunc convertentur inimici mei retrorsum in quacumque die invocavero te ecce cognovi quoniam Deus meus es
Then shall mine enemies turn back in the day that I call; this I know, that God is for me.
10 in Deo laudabo verbum in Domino laudabo sermonem
In God — I will praise His word — in the LORD — I will praise His word —
11 in Deo speravi non timebo quid faciat mihi homo
In God do I trust, I will not be afraid; what can man do unto me?
12 in me sunt Deus vota tua; quae reddam laudationes tibi
Thy vows are upon me, O God; I will render thank-offerings unto Thee.
13 quoniam eripuisti animam meam de morte et pedes meos de lapsu ut placeam coram Deo in lumine viventium
For thou hast delivered my soul from death; hast Thou not delivered my feet from stumbling? that I may walk before God in the light of the living.
