1 Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation.

1 In finem, pro ea quæ hæreditatem consequitur. Psalmus David.

2 ¶ Verba mea auribus percipe, Domine;
intellige clamorem meum.

2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee will I pray.

3 Intende voci orationis meæ,
rex meus et Deus meus.

3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

4 Quoniam ad te orabo, Domine:
mane exaudies vocem meam.

4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.

5 Mane astabo tibi, et videbo
quoniam non Deus volens iniquitatem tu es.

5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

6 Neque habitabit juxta te malignus,
neque permanebunt injusti ante oculos tuos.

6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

7 Odisti omnes qui operantur iniquitatem;
perdes omnes qui loquuntur mendacium.
Virum sanguinum et dolosum abominabitur Dominus.

7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

8 Ego autem in multitudine misericordiæ tuæ
introibo in domum tuam;
adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum in timore tuo.

8 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.

9 Domine, deduc me in justitia tua:
propter inimicos meos dirige in conspectu tuo viam meam.

9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.

10 Quoniam non est in ore eorum veritas;
cor eorum vanum est.

10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.

11 Sepulchrum patens est guttur eorum;
linguis suis dolose agebant:
judica illos, Deus.
Decidant a cogitationibus suis;
secundum multitudinem impietatum eorum expelle eos,
quoniam irritaverunt te, Domine.

11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

12 Et lætentur omnes qui sperant in te;
in æternum exsultabunt, et habitabis in eis.
Et gloriabuntur in te omnes qui diligunt nomen tuum,

12 For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

13 quoniam tu benedices justo.
Domine, ut scuto bonæ voluntatis tuæ coronasti nos.
