A Psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.
4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.
5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.
6 And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
7 Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
8 When thou saidst , Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
9 Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.
11 Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.
12 Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.
13 I had fainted , unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.
14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
1 huic David
Ad te Domine clamabo Deus meus ne sileas a me
nequando taceas a me et adsimilabor descendentibus in lacum
2 exaudi vocem deprecationis meae dum oro ad te
dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum
3 ne simul tradas me cum peccatoribus
et cum operantibus iniquitatem ÷ne perdideris me:
qui loquuntur pacem cum proximo suo
mala autem sunt in cordibus eorum
4 da illis secundum opera ipsorum
et secundum nequitiam adinventionum ipsorum
secundum opera manuum eorum tribue illis
redde retributionem eorum ipsis
5 quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini
et in opera manuum eius
destrues illos et non aedificabis eos
6 benedictus Dominus quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis meae
7 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 Dominus fortitudo plebis suae
et protector salvationum christi sui est
9 salvam fac plebem tuam
et benedic hereditati tuae
et rege eos et extolle eos usque in aeternum
