A Psalm of David, when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed.
1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof , and be glad.
3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.
6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him , and saved him out of all his troubles.
7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing .
11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
16 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
1 huic David
Iudica Domine nocentes me expugna expugnantes me
2 adprehende arma et scutum et exsurge in adiutorium mihi
3 effunde frameam et conclude adversus eos qui persequuntur me
dic animae meae salus tua ego sum
4 confundantur et revereantur quaerentes animam meam
avertantur retrorsum et confundantur cogitantes mihi mala
5 fiant tamquam pulvis ante faciem venti
et angelus Domini coartans eos
6 fiat via illorum tenebrae et lubricum
et angelus Domini persequens eos
7 quoniam gratis absconderunt mihi interitum laquei sui
supervacue exprobraverunt animam meam
8 veniat illi laqueus quem ignorat
et captio quam abscondit conprehendat eum
et in laqueo cadat in ipso
9 anima autem mea exultabit in Domino
delectabitur super salutari suo
10 omnia ossa mea dicent Domine quis similis tui
eripiens inopem de manu fortiorum eius
egenum et pauperem a diripientibus eum
11 surgentes testes iniqui quae ignorabam interrogabant me
12 retribuebant mihi mala pro bonis sterilitatem animae meae
13 ego autem cum mihi molesti essent induebar cilicio
humiliabam in ieiunio animam meam
et oratio mea in sinum meum convertetur
14 quasi proximum quasi fratrem nostrum sic conplacebam
quasi lugens et contristatus sic humiliabar
15 et adversum me laetati sunt et convenerunt
congregata sunt super me flagella et ignoravi
16 dissipati sunt nec conpuncti
temptaverunt me subsannaverunt me subsannatione
frenduerunt super me dentibus suis
17 Domine quando respicies
restitue animam meam a malignitate eorum
a leonibus unicam meam
18 confitebor tibi in ecclesia magna in populo gravi laudabo te
19 non supergaudeant mihi qui adversantur mihi inique
qui oderunt me gratis et annuunt oculis
20 quoniam mihi quidem pacifice loquebantur
et in iracundia ※terrae loquentes: dolos cogitabant
21 et dilataverunt super me os suum
dixerunt euge euge viderunt oculi nostri
22 vidisti Domine ne sileas Domine ne discedas a me
23 exsurge et intende iudicio meo
Deus meus et Dominus meus in causam meam
24 iudica me secundum iustitiam tuam Domine Deus meus
et non supergaudeant mihi
25 non dicant in cordibus suis euge euge animae nostrae
nec dicant devoravimus eum
26 erubescant et revereantur simul qui gratulantur malis meis
induantur confusione et reverentia
qui magna loquuntur super me
27 exultent et laetentur qui volunt iustitiam meam
et dicant semper magnificetur Dominus
qui volunt pacem servi eius
28 et lingua mea meditabitur iustitiam tuam tota die laudem tuam
