| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Unto the end, for the hidden things of the Son. A psalm for David. | In finem, pro occultis filii. Psalmus David. |
| 2 | I will give praise to thee, O Lord, with my whole heart: I will relate all thy wonders. | Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo; narrabo omnia mirabilia tua. |
| 3 | I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing to thy name, O thou most high. | Laetabor et exsultabo in te; psallam nomini tuo, Altissime. |
| 4 | When my enemy shall be turned back: they shall be weakened and perish before thy face. | In convertendo inimicum meum retrorsum; infirmabuntur, et peribunt a facie tua. |
| 5 | For thou hast maintained my judgment and my cause: thou hast sat on the throne, who judgest justice. | Quoniam fecisti iudicium meum et causam meam; sedisti super thronum, qui iudicas iustitiam. |
| 6 | Thou hast rebuked the Gentiles, and the wicked one hath perished: thou hast blotted out their name for ever and ever. | Increpasti gentes, et periit impius: nomen eorum delesti in aeternum, et in saeculum saeculi. |
| 7 | The swords of the enemy have failed unto the end: and their cities thou hast destroyed. Their memory hath perished with a noise. | Inimici defecerunt frameae in finem, et civitates eorum destruxisti. Periit memoria eorum cum sonitu; |
| 8 | But the Lord remaineth for ever. He hath prepared his throne in judgment: | et Dominus in aeternum permanet. Paravit in iudicio thronum suum, |
| 9 | And he shall judge the world in equity, he shall judge the people in justice. | et ipse iudicabit orbem terrae in aequitate: iudicabit populos in iustitia. |
| 10 | And the Lord is become a refuge for the poor: a helper in due time in tribulation. | Et factus est Dominus refugium pauperi; adiutor in opportunitatibus, in tribulatione. |
| 11 | And let them trust in thee who know thy name: for thou hast not forsaken them that seek thee, O Lord. | Et sperent in te qui noverunt nomen tuum, quoniam non dereliquisti quaerentes te, Domine. |
| 12 | Sing ye to the Lord, who dwelleth in Sion: declare his ways among the Gentiles: | Psallite Domino qui habitat in Sion; annuntiate inter gentes studia eius: |
| 13 | For requiring their blood he hath remembered the: he hath not forgotten the cry of the poor. | quoniam requirens sanguinem eorum recordatus est; non est oblitus clamorem pauperum. |
| 14 | Have mercy on me, O Lord: see my humiliation which I suffer from my enemies. | Miserere mei, Domine: vide humilitatem meam de inimicis meis, |
| 15 | Thou that liftest me up from the gates of death, that I may declare all thy praises in the gates of the daughter of Sion. | qui exaltas me de portis mortis, ut annuntiem omnes laudationes tuas in portis filiae Sion: |
| 16 | I will rejoice in thy salvation: the Gentiles have stuck fast in the destruction which they have prepared. Their foot hath been taken in the very snare which they hid. | exultabo in salutari tuo. Infixae sunt gentes in interitu quem fecerunt; in laqueo isto quem absconderunt comprehensus est pes eorum. |
| 17 | The Lord shall be known when he executeth judgments: the sinner hath been caught in the works of his own hands. | Cognoscetur Dominus iudicia faciens; in operibus manuum suarum comprehensus est peccator. |
| 18 | The wicked shall be turned into hell, all the nations that forget God. | Convertantur peccatores in infernum, omnes gentes quae obliviscuntur Deum. |
| 19 | For the poor man shall not be forgotten to the end: the patience of the poor shall not perish for ever. | Quoniam non in finem oblivio erit pauperis; patientia pauperum non peribit in finem. |
| 20 | Arise, O Lord, let not man be strengthened: let the Gentiles be judged in thy sight. | Exsurge, Domine; non confortetur homo: iudicentur gentes in conspectu tuo. |
| 21 | Appoint, O Lord, a lawgiver over them: that the Gentiles may know themselves to be but men. | Constitue, Domine, legislatorem super eos, ut sciant gentes quoniam homines sunt. |
| 22 | Why, O Lord, hast thou retired afar off? why dost thou slight us in our wants, in the time of trouble? | Ut quid, Domine, recessisti longe; despicis in opportunitatibus, in tribulatione? |
| 23 | Whilst the wicked man is proud, the poor is set on fire: they are caught in the counsels which they devise. | Dum superbit impius, incenditur pauper: comprehenduntur in consiliis quibus cogitant. |
| 24 | For the sinner is praised in the desires of his soul: and the unjust man is blessed. | Quoniam laudatur peccator in desideriis animae suae, et iniquus benedicitur. |
| 25 | The sinner hath provoked the Lord according to the multitude of his wrath he will not seek him: | Exacerbavit Dominum peccator: secundum multitudinem irae suae, non quaeret. |
| 26 | God is not before his eyes: his ways are filthy at all times. Thy judgments are removed from his sight: he shall rule over all his enemies. | Non est Deus in conspectu eius; inquinatae sunt viae illius in omni tempore. Auferuntur iudicia tua a facie eius; omnium inimicorum suorum dominabitur. |
| 27 | For he hath said in his heart: I shall not be moved from generation to generation, and shall be without evil. | Dixit enim in corde suo: Non movebor a generatione in generationem, sine malo. |
| 28 | His mouth is full of cursing, and of bitterness, and of deceit: under his tongue are labour and sorrow. | Cuius maledictione os plenum est, et amaritudine, et dolo; sub lingua eius labor et dolor. |
| 29 | He sitteth in ambush with the rich in private places, that he may kill the innocent. | Sedet in insidiis cum divitibus in occultis, ut interficiat innocentem. |
| 30 | His eyes are upon the poor man: He lieth in wait in secret like a lion in his den. He lieth in ambush that he may catch the poor man: to catch the poor, whilst he draweth him to him. | Oculi eius in pauperem respiciunt; insidiatur in abscondito, quasi leo in spelunca sua. Insidiatur ut rapiat pauperem; rapere pauperem dum attrahit eum. |
| 31 | In his net he will bring him down, he will crouch and fall, when he shall have power over the poor. | In laqueo suo humiliabit eum; inclinabit se, et cadet cum dominatus fuerit pauperum. |
| 32 | For he hath said in his heart: God hath forgotten, he hath turned away his face not to see to the end. | Dixit enim in corde suo: Oblitus est Deus; avertit faciem suam, ne videat in finem. |
| 33 | Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: forget not the poor. | Exsurge, Domine Deus, exaltetur manus tua; ne obliviscaris pauperum. |
| 34 | Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it. | Propter quid irritavit impius Deum? dixit enim in corde suo: Non requiret. |
| 35 | Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands. To thee is the poor man left: thou wilt be a helper to the orphan. | Vides, quoniam tu laborem et dolorem consideras, ut tradas eos in manus tuas. Tibi derelictus est pauper; orphano tu eris adiutor. |
| 36 | Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found. | Contere brachium peccatoris et maligni; quaeretur peccatum illius, et non invenietur. |
| 37 | The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: ye Gentiles shall perish from his land. | Dominus regnabit in aeternum, et in saeculum saeculi; peribitis, gentes, de terra illius. |
| 38 | The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart. | Desiderium pauperum exaudivit Dominus; praeparationem cordis eorum audivit auris tua: |
| 39 | To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth. | iudicare pupillo et humili, ut non apponat ultra magnificare se homo super terram. |
