1 In finem. Puero Domini David, qui locutus est Domino verba cantici hujus, in die qua eripuit eum Dominus de manu omnium inimicorum ejus, et de manu Saul, et dixit:
Unto the end, for David the servant of the Lord, who spoke to the Lord the words of this canticle, in the day that the Lord delivered him from the hands of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul.
2 Diligam te, Domine, fortitudo mea.
I will love thee, O Lord, my strength:
3 Dominus firmamentum meum, et refugium meum, et liberator meus. Deus meus adjutor meus, et sperabo in eum; protector meus, et cornu salutis meæ, et susceptor meus.
The Lord is my firmament, my refuge, and my deliverer. My God is my helper, and in him will I put my trust. My protector and the horn of my salvation, and my support.
4 Laudans invocabo Dominum, et ab inimicis meis salvus ero.
Praising I will call upon the Lord: and I shall be saved from my enemies.
5 Circumdederunt me dolores mortis, et torrentes iniquitatis conturbaverunt me.
The sorrows of death surrounded me: and the torrents of iniquity troubled me.
6 Dolores inferni circumdederunt me, præoccupaverunt me laquei mortis.
The sorrows of hell encompassed me: and the snares of death prevented me.
7 In tribulatione mea invocavi Dominum, et ad Deum meum clamavi: et exaudivit de templo sancto suo vocem meam; et clamor meus in conspectu ejus introivit in aures ejus.
In my affliction I called upon the Lord, and I cried to my God: And he heard my voice from his holy temple: and my cry before him came into his ears.
8 Commota est, et contremuit terra, fundamenta montium conturbata sunt, et commota sunt, quoniam iratus est eis.
The earth shook and trembled: the foundations of the mountains were troubled and were moved, because he was angry with them.
9 Ascendit fumus in ira ejus, et ignis a facie ejus exarsit; carbones succensi sunt ab eo.
There went up a smoke in his wrath: and a fire flamed from his face: coals were kindled by it.
10 Inclinavit cælos, et descendit; et caligo sub pedibus ejus.
He bowed the heavens, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.
11 Et ascendit super cherubim, et volavit; volavit super pennas ventorum.
And he ascended upon the cherubim, and he flew; he flew upon the wings of the winds.
12 Et posuit tenebras latibulum suum; in circuitu ejus tabernaculum ejus, tenebrosa aqua in nubibus æris.
And he made darkness his covert, his pavilion round about him: dark waters in the clouds of the air.
13 Præ fulgore in conspectu ejus nubes transierunt, grando et carbones ignis.
At the brightness that was before him the clouds passed, hail and coals of fire.
14 Et intonuit de cælo Dominus, et Altissimus dedit vocem suam: grando et carbones ignis.
And the Lord thundered from heaven, and the highest gave his voice: hail and coals of fire.
15 Et misit sagittas suas, et dissipavit eos; fulgura multiplicavit, et conturbavit eos.
And he sent forth his arrows, and he scattered them: he multiplied lightnings, and troubled them.
16 Et apparuerunt fontes aquarum, et revelata sunt fundamenta orbis terrarum, ab increpatione tua, Domine, ab inspiratione spiritus iræ tuæ.
Then the fountains of waters appeared, and the foundations of the world were discovered: At thy rebuke, O Lord, at the blast of the spirit of thy wrath.
17 Misit de summo, et accepit me; et assumpsit me de aquis multis.
He sent from on high, and took me: and received me out of many waters.
18 Eripuit me de inimicis meis fortissimis, et ab his qui oderunt me. Quoniam confortati sunt super me,
He delivered me from my strongest enemies, and from them that hated me: for they were too strong for me.
19 prævenerunt me in die afflictionis meæ; et factus est Dominus protector meus.
They prevented me in the day of my affliction: and the Lord became my protector.
20 Et eduxit me in latitudinem; salvum me fecit, quoniam voluit me,
And he brought me forth into a large place: he saved me, because he was well pleased with me.
21 et retribuet mihi Dominus secundum justitiam meam, et secundum puritatem manuum mearum retribuet mihi;
And the Lord will reward me according to my justice; and will repay me according to the cleanness of my hands:
22 quia custodivi vias Domini, nec impie gessi a Deo meo;
Because I have kept the ways of the Lord; and have not done wickedly against my God.
23 quoniam omnia judicia ejus in conspectu meo, et justitias ejus non repuli a me.
For till his judgments are in my sight: and his justices I have not put away from me.
24 Et ero immaculatus cum eo; et observabo me ab iniquitate mea.
And I shall be spotless with him: and shall keep myself from my iniquity.
25 Et retribuet mihi Dominus secundum justitiam meam, et secundum puritatem manuum mearum in conspectu oculorum ejus.
And the Lord will reward me according to my justice; and according to the cleanness of my hands before his eyes.
26 Cum sancto sanctus eris, et cum viro innocente innocens eris,
With the holy, thou wilt be holy; and with the innocent man thou wilt be innocent.
27 et cum electo electus eris, et cum perverso perverteris.
And with the elect thou wilt be elect: and with the perverse thou wilt be perverted.
28 Quoniam tu populum humilem salvum facies, et oculos superborum humiliabis.

29 Quoniam tu illuminas lucernam meam, Domine; Deus meus, illumina tenebras meas.

30 Quoniam in te eripiar a tentatione; et in Deo meo transgrediar murum.
For by thee I shall be delivered from temptation; and through my God I shall go over a wall.
31 Deus meus, impolluta via ejus; eloquia Domini igne examinata; protector est omnium sperantium in se.
As for my God, his way is undefiled: the words of the Lord are fire tried: he is the protector of all that trust in him.
32 Quoniam quis Deus præter Dominum? aut quis Deus præter Deum nostrum?
For who is God but the Lord? or who is God but our God?
33 Deus qui præcinxit me virtute, et posuit immaculatam viam meam;
God who hath girt me with strength; and made my way blameless.
34 qui perfecit pedes meos tamquam cervorum, et super excelsa statuens me;
Who hath made my feet like the feet of harts: and who setteth me upon high places.
35 qui docet manus meas ad prælium; et posuisti, ut arcum æreum, brachia mea;
Who teacheth my hands to war: and thou hast made my arms like a brazen bow.
36 et dedisti mihi protectionem salutis tuæ, et dextera tua suscepit me; et disciplina tua correxit me in finem, et disciplina tua ipsa me docebit.
And thou hast given me the protection of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath held me up: And thy discipline hath corrected me unto the end: and thy discipline, the same shall teach me.
37 Dilatasti gressus meos subtus me; et non sunt infirmata vestigia mea.
Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; and my feet are not weakened.
38 Persequar inimicos meos, et comprehendam illos; et non convertar donec deficiant.
I will pursue after my enemies, and overtake them: and I will not turn again till they are consumed.
39 Confringam illos, nec poterunt stare; cadent subtus pedes meos.
I will break them, and they shall not be able to stand: they shall fall under my feet.
40 Et præcinxisti me virtute ad bellum, et supplantasti insurgentes in me subtus me.

41 Et inimicos meos dedisti mihi dorsum, et odientes me disperdidisti.

They cried, but there was none to save them, to the Lord: but he heard them not.
43 Et comminuam eos ut pulverem ante faciem venti; ut lutum platearum delebo eos.
And I shall beat them as small as the dust before the wind; I shall bring them to nought, like the dirt in the streets.
44 Eripies me de contradictionibus populi; constitues me in caput gentium.
Thou wilt deliver me from the contradictions of the people: thou wilt make me head of the Gentiles.
45 Populus, quem non cognovi, servivit mihi; in auditu auris obedivit mihi.

49 Et ab insurgentibus in me exaltabis me; a viro iniquo eripies me.
And thou wilt lift me up above them that rise up against me: from the unjust man thou wilt deliver me.
50 Propterea confitebor tibi in nationibus, Domine, et nomini tuo psalmum dicam;
Therefore will I give glory to thee, O Lord, among the nations, and I will sing a psalm to thy name.
51 magnificans salutes regis ejus, et faciens misericordiam christo suo David, et semini ejus usque in sæculum.

Therefore will I give glory to thee, O Lord, among the nations, and I will sing a psalm to thy name.
51 magnificans salutes regis ejus, et faciens misericordiam christo suo David, et semini ejus usque in sæculum.
Giving great deliverance to his king, and shewing mercy to David his anointed: and to his seed for ever.
