Psalms 11
Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Unto the end; for the octave, a psalm for David. | In finem, pro octava. Psalmus David. |
| 2 | Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: truths are decayed from among the children of men. | Salvum me fac, Domine, quoniam defecit sanctus, quoniam diminutae sunt veritates a filiis hominum. |
| 3 | They have spoken vain things every one to his neighbour: with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken. | Vana locuti sunt unusquisque ad proximum suum; labia dolosa, in corde et corde locuti sunt. |
| 4 | May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things. | Disperdat Dominus universa labia dolosa, et linguam magniloquam. |
| 5 | Who have said: We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own; who is Lord over us? | Qui dixerunt: Linguam nostram magnificabimus; labia nostra a nobis sunt. Quis noster dominus est? |
| 6 | By reason of the misery of the needy, and the groans of the poor, now will I arise, saith the Lord. I win set him in safety; I will deal confidently in his regard. | Propter miseriam inopum, et gemitum pauperum, nunc exsurgam, dicit Dominus. Ponam in salutari; fiducialiter agam in eo. |
| 7 | The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth refined seven times. | Eloquia Domini, eloquia casta; argentum igne examinatum, probatum terrae, purgatum septuplum. |
| 8 | Thou, O Lord, wilt preserve us: and keep us from this generation for ever. | Tu, Domine, servabis nos, et custodies nos a generatione hac in aeternum. |
| 9 | The wicked walk round about: according to thy highness, thou best multiplied the children of men. | In circuitu impii ambulant: secundum altitudinem tuam multiplicasti filios hominum. |
