Psalm 36
1 The transgression of the wicked saith within my heart, that there is no fear of God before his eyes.
35:1 In finem. Servo Domini ipsi David.
2 ¶ Dixit injustus ut delinquat in semetipso:
non est timor Dei ante oculos ejus.
non est timor Dei ante oculos ejus.
2 For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.
3 Quoniam dolose egit in conspectu ejus,
ut inveniatur iniquitas ejus ad odium.
ut inveniatur iniquitas ejus ad odium.
3 The words of his mouth are iniquity and deceit: he hath left off to be wise, and to do good.
4 Verba oris ejus iniquitas, et dolus;
noluit intelligere ut bene ageret.
noluit intelligere ut bene ageret.
4 He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.
5 Iniquitatem meditatus est in cubili suo;
astitit omni viæ non bonæ:
malitiam autem non odivit.
astitit omni viæ non bonæ:
malitiam autem non odivit.
5 Thy mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.
6 Domine, in cælo misericordia tua,
et veritas tua usque ad nubes.
et veritas tua usque ad nubes.
6 Thy righteousness is like the great mountains; thy judgments are a great deep: O Lord, thou preservest man and beast.
7 Justitia tua sicut montes Dei;
judicia tua abyssus multa.
Homines et jumenta salvabis, Domine,
judicia tua abyssus multa.
Homines et jumenta salvabis, Domine,
7 How excellent is thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of thy wings.
8 quemadmodum multiplicasti misericordiam tuam, Deus.
Filii autem hominum in tegmine alarum tuarum sperabunt.
Filii autem hominum in tegmine alarum tuarum sperabunt.
8 They shall be abundantly satisfied with the fatness of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the river of thy pleasures.
9 Inebriabuntur ab ubertate domus tuæ,
et torrente voluptatis tuæ potabis eos:
et torrente voluptatis tuæ potabis eos:
9 For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light.
10 quoniam apud te est fons vitæ,
et in lumine tuo videbimus lumen.
et in lumine tuo videbimus lumen.
10 O continue thy lovingkindness unto them that know thee; and thy righteousness to the upright in heart.
11 Prætende misericordiam tuam scientibus te,
et justitiam tuam his qui recto sunt corde.
et justitiam tuam his qui recto sunt corde.
11 Let not the foot of pride come against me, and let not the hand of the wicked remove me.
12 Non veniat mihi pes superbiæ,
et manus peccatoris non moveat me.
et manus peccatoris non moveat me.
12 There are the workers of iniquity fallen: they are cast down, and shall not be able to rise.
13 Ibi ceciderunt qui operantur iniquitatem;
expulsi sunt, nec potuerunt stare.
expulsi sunt, nec potuerunt stare.
