The Latin Vulgate VUL
Revised Standard Version RSV
1 psalmus David cum esset in deserto Iudaeae
1
To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.
2 Deus Deus meus ad te de luce vigilo sitivit in te anima mea quam multipliciter tibi caro mea
2
He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly moved.
3 in terra deserta et invia et inaquosa sic in sancto apparui tibi ut viderem virtutem tuam et gloriam tuam
3
How long will you set upon a man to shatter him, all of you, like a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
4 quoniam melior est misericordia tua super vitas labia mea laudabunt te
4
They only plan to thrust him down from his eminence. They take pleasure in falsehood. They bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse. [Selah]
5 sic benedicam te in vita mea in nomine tuo levabo manus meas
5
For God alone my soul waits in silence, for my hope is from him.
6 sicut adipe et pinguidine repleatur anima mea et labia exultationis laudabit os meum
6
He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
7 si memor fui tui super stratum meum in matutinis meditabar in te
7
On God rests my deliverance and my honor; my mighty rock, my refuge is God.
8 quia fuisti adiutor meus et in velamento alarum tuarum exultabo
8
Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. [Selah]
9 adhesit anima mea post te me suscepit dextera tua
9
Men of low estate are but a breath, men of high estate are a delusion; in the balances they go up; they are together lighter than a breath.
10 ipsi vero in vanum quaesierunt animam meam introibunt in inferiora terrae
10
Put no confidence in extortion, set no vain hopes on robbery; if riches increase, set not your heart on them.
11 tradentur in manus gladii partes vulpium erunt
11
Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this: that power belongs to God;
12 rex vero laetabitur in Deo laudabitur omnis qui iurat in eo quia obstructum est os loquentium iniqua
12
and that to thee, O Lord, belongs steadfast love. For thou dost requite a man according to his work.
