Liber Psalmorum

Psalmus ipsi David. Misericordiam et judicium cantabo tibi, Domine; psallam,

A psalm for David himself. Mercy and judgment I will sing to thee, O Lord: I will sing,

Psalmo ipso Davide. Misericordia et iudicio canta ad te, Domino; psalle,

et intelligam in via immaculata: quando venies ad me? Perambulabam in innocentia cordis mei, in medio domus meæ.

And I will understand in the unspotted way, when thou shalt come to me. I walked in the innocence of my heart, in the midst of my house.

Et intellege in via immacula: quando veni ad me? Perambula in innocentia de corde meo, in medio de domo meo.

Non proponebam ante oculos meos rem injustam; facientes prævaricationes odivi; non adhæsit mihi

I will not set before my eyes any unjust thing: I hated the workers of iniquities.

Non propone ante oculos meo re iniusta; fac praevaricationes ode; non adhaere ad me

cor pravum; declinantem a me malignum non cognoscebam.

The perverse heart did not cleave to me: and the malignant, that turned aside from me, I would not know.

Corde prava; declina ab me maligno non cognosce.

Detrahentem secreto proximo suo, hunc persequebar: superbo oculo, et insatiabili corde, cum hoc non edebam.

The man that in private detracted his neighbour, him did I persecute. With him that had a proud eye, and an unsatiable heart, I would not eat.

Detrahente secreto proximo suo, hoc perseque: superbo oculo, et insatiabili corde, cum hoc non ede.

Oculi mei ad fideles terræ, ut sedeant mecum; ambulans in via immaculata, hic mihi ministrabat.

My eyes were upon the faithful of the earth, to sit with me: the man that walked in the perfect way, he served me.

Oculos meo ad fideli de terra, ut sede mecum; ambulante in via immacula, hoc ad me ministra.

Non habitabit in medio domus meæ qui facit superbiam; qui loquitur iniqua non direxit in conspectu oculorum meorum.

He that worketh pride shall not dwell in the midst of my house: he that speaketh unjust things did not prosper before my eyes.

Non habita in medio de domo meo qui fac superbia; qui loque iniquo non dic in conspectu de oculos meo.

In matutino interficiebam omnes peccatores terræ, ut disperderem de civitate Domini omnes operantes iniquitatem.

In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord.

In matutina omni peccatores de terra interfice, ut disperde de civitate de Domino omni operor iniquitate.
