Psalmus 90.


Q

Dicit Dómino: Suscéptor meus es tu, et refúgium meum: * Deus meus, sperábo in eum.
Quóniam ipse liberábit me de láqueo venántium, * et a verbo áspero.
In scápulis suis obumbrábit tibi: * et suppínnis ejus sperábis.
Scuto circumdábit te véritas ejus: * non timébis a timóre noctúrno.
A sagítta volánte per diem, a negótio perambulánti in ténebris: * a ruína, et dæmónio meridiáno.
Cadent a látere tuo mille et decem míllia a dextris tuis: * tibi autem non adpropiábit.
Verúmtamen óculis tuis considerábis: * et retributiónem peccatórum vidébis.
Quóniam tu es, Dómine, spes mea: * altíssimum posuísti refúgium tuum.
Non accédent ad te mala: * et flagéllum non adpropiábit tabernáculo tuo.
Quóniam ángelis suis mandábit de te: * ut custódiant te in ómnibus viis tuis.
In mánibus portábunt te: * ne umquam offéndas ad lápidem pedem tuum.
Super áspidem, et basilíscum ambulábis: * et conculcábis leónem, et dracónem.
Quóniam in me sperábit liberábo eum: * prótegam eum, quia cognóbit nomen meum.
Invocábit me, et ego exáudiam eum: * cum ipso sum in tribulatióne, erípiam eum, et glorificábo eum.
Longitúdine diérum adimplébo eum: * et osténdam illi salutáre meum.
Glória, et honor Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto in sæcula sæculórum. Amen.

Psalm 90.


H

e that dwelleth in the aid of the most High, * shall abide under the protection of the God of Jacob.
He shall say to the Lord: Thou art my protector, and my refuge: * my God, in him will I trust.
For he hath delivered me from the snare of the hunters: * and from the sharp word.
He will overshadow thee with his shoulders: * and under his wings thou shalt trust.
His truth shall compass thee with a shield: * thou shalt not be afraid of the terror of the night.
Of the arrow that flieth in the day, of the business that walketh about in the dark: * of invasion, or of the noonday devil.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand: * but it shall not come nigh thee.
But thou shalt consider with thy eyes: * and shalt see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou, O Lord, art my hope: * thou hast made the most High thy refuge.
There shall no evil come to thee: * nor shall the scourge come near thy dwelling.
For he hath given his angels charge over thee; * to keep thee in all thy ways.
In their hands they shall bear thee up: * lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Thou shalt walk upon the asp and the basilisk: * and thou shalt trample under foot the lion and the dragon.
Because he hoped in me I will deliver him: * I will protect him because he hath known my name.
He shall cry to me, and I will hear him: * I am with him in tribulation, I will deliver him, and I will glorify him.
I will fill him with length of days; * and I will shew him my salvation.
Glory and honor be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, for ever and ever. Amen.

Psalmus


Psalmus 50.


M

iserére mei, Deus, secúndum magnam misericórdiam tuam: * et secúndum multitúdinem miseratiónum tuárum dele iniquitátes meas.
Usquequáque laba me ab injustítia mea: * et a peccáto meo munda me.
Quóniam iniquitátem meam ego agnósco: * et peccátum meum contra me est semper.
Tibi soli peccábi, et malum coram te feci: * ut justificéris in sermónibus tuis, et vincas dum judicáris.
Ecce enim in iniquitátibus concéptus sum: * et in peccátis péperit me mater mea.
Ecce enim veritátem dilexsísti: * incérta et occúlta sapiéntiæ tuæ manifestásti mihi.
Adspárges me ysópo, et mundábor: * labábis me, et supra nibem dealbábor.
Audítui meo dabis gáudium, et lætítiam: * et exultábunt ossa humiliáta.
Avérte fáciem tuam a peccátis meis: * et omnes iniquitátes meas dele.
Cor mundum crea in me, Deus, * spíritum rectum ínnoba in viscéribus meis.
Ne proícias me a fácie tua: * spíritum sanctum tuum ne áuferas a me.
Redde mihi lætítiam salutáris tui: * spíritu principáli confírma me.
Docéam inícos vias tuas: * et ímpii ad te converténtur.
Líbera me de sanguínibus, Deus, Deus salútis meæ : * laudábit lingua mea justítias tuas.
Dómine, lábia mea apéries: * et os meum adnuntiábit laudem tuam.
Quóniam, si voluísses sacrifícium dedíssem útique: * holocáustis vero non delectáberis.
Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus: * cor contrítum, et humiliátum Deus non spernet.
Benígne fac, Dómine, in bona voluntáte tua Sion: * ut ædificéntur muri Jerúsalem.
Tunc acceptábis sacrifícium justítiæ, oblatiónes, et holocáusta: * tunc impónes super altáre tuum vítulos.
Glória, et honor Patri, et Fílio, et Spirítui Sancto in sæcula sæculórum. Amen.

Psalm


Psalm 50.


H

ave mercy on me, O God, according to thy great mercy: * and according to the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my iniquity.
Wash me yet more from my iniquity, * and cleanse me from my sin.
For I know my iniquity, * and my sin is always before me.
To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: * that thou mayst be justified in thy words, and mayst overcome when thou art judged.
For behold I was conceived in iniquities; * and in sins did my mother conceive me.
For behold thou hast loved truth: * the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.
Thou shalt sprinkle me with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed: * thou shalt wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow.
To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: * and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.
Turn away thy face from my sins, * and blot out all my iniquities.
Create a clean heart in me, O God: * and renew a right spirit within my bowels.
Cast me not away from thy face; * and take not thy holy spirit from me.
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, * and strengthen me with a perfect spirit.
I will teach the unjust thy ways: * and the wicked shall be converted to thee.
Deliver me from blood, O God, thou God of my salvation: * and my tongue shall extol thy justice.
O Lord, thou wilt open my lips: * and my mouth shall declare thy praise.
For if thou hadst desired sacrifice, I would indeed have given it: * with burnt offerings thou wilt not be delighted.
A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; * that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: * then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.
Glory and honor be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, for ever and ever. Amen.
