The fifth book of Psalms, song 140, Vulgate and King James Version

Psalm 140

Vulgate


   1 Magistro chori. PSALMUS. David.
   2 Eripe me, Domine, ab homine malo, a viro violentiae serva me.
   3 Qui cogitaverunt mala in corde, tota die constituebant proelia.
   4 Acuerunt linguas suas sicut serpentis, venenum aspidum sub labiis eorum.
   5 Custodi me, Domine, de manu peccatoris et a viro violentiae serva me, qui cogitaverunt supplantare gressus meos.
   6 Absconderunt superbi laqueum mihi et funes extenderunt in rete, iuxta iter offendicula posuerunt mihi.
   7 Dixi Domino: "Deus meus es tu; auribus percipe, Domine, vocem deprecationis meae".
   8 Domine, Domine, virtus salutis meae, obumbrasti caput meum in die belli.
   9 Ne concedas, Domine, desideria impii; consilia eius ne perficias. Exaltant
   10 caput, qui circumdant me; malitia labiorum ipsorum operiat eos.
   11 Cadant super eos carbones ignis, in foveas deicias eos, et non exsurgant.
   12 Vir linguosus non firmabitur in terra, virum violentiae mala capient in interitu.
   13 Cognovi quia faciet Dominus iudicium inopis et vindictam pauperum.
   14 Verumtamen iusti confitebuntur nomini tuo, et habitabunt recti in conspectu tuo.

King James Version


   To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
   1 Deliver me, O LORD, from the evil man: preserve me from the violent man;
   2 Which imagine mischiefs in their heart; continually are they gathered together for war.
   3 They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah.
   4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.
   5 The proud have hid a snare for me, and cords; they have spread a net by the wayside; they have set gins for me. Selah.
   6 I said unto the LORD, Thou art my God: hear the voice of my supplications, O LORD.
   7 O GOD the Lord, the strength of my salvation, thou hast covered my head in the day of battle.
   8 Grant not, O LORD, the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
   9 As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
   10 Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.
   11 Let not an evil speaker be established in the earth: evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.
   12 I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and the right of the poor.
   13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto thy name: the upright shall dwell in thy presence.
