Psalms 27
Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A psalm for David himself. Unto thee will I cry, O Lord: O my God, be not thou silent to me: lest thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit. | Psalmus ipsi David. Ad te, Domine, clamabo; Deus meus, ne sileas a me: nequando taceas a me, et assimilabor descendentibus in lacum. |
| 2 | Hear, O Lord, the voice of my supplication, when I pray to thee; when I lift up my hands to thy holy temple. | Exaudi, Domine, vocem deprecationis meae dum oro ad te; dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum. |
| 3 | Draw me not away together with the wicked; and with the workers of iniquity destroy me not: Who speak peace with their neighbour, but evils are in their hearts. | Ne simul trahas me cum peccatoribus, et cum operantibus iniquitatem ne perdas me; qui loquuntur pacem cum proximo suo, mala autem in cordibus eorum. |
| 4 | Give them according to their works, and according to the wickedness of their inventions. According to the works of their hands give thou to them: render to them their reward. | Da illis secundum opera eorum, et secundum nequitiam adinventionum ipsorum. Secundum opera manuum eorum tribue illis; redde retributionem eorum ipsis. |
| 5 | Because they have not understood the works of the Lord, and the operations of his hands: thou shalt destroy them, and shalt not build them up. | Quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini, et in opera manuum eius destrues illos, et non aedificabis eos. |
| 6 | Blessed be the Lord, for he hath heard the voice of my supplication. | Benedictus Dominus, quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis meae. |
| 7 | The Lord is my helper and my protector: in him hath my heart confided, and I have been helped. And my flesh hath flourished again, and with my will I will give praise to him. | Dominus adiutor meus et protector meus; in ipso speravit cor meum, et adiutus sum: et refloruit caro mea, et ex voluntate mea confitebor ei. |
| 8 | The Lord is the strength of his people, and the protector of the salvation of his anointed. | Dominus fortitudo plebis suae, et protector salvationum christi sui est. |
| 9 | Save, O Lord, thy people, and bless thy inheritance: and rule them and exalt them for ever. | Salvum fac populum tuum, Domine, et benedic haereditati tuae; et rege eos, et extolle illos usque in aeternum. |
