| [1]MY soul waits upon God; from him comes my salvation. |
[1]Psalmus David, cum esset in deserto Idumææ. |
| [2]He only is my God and my salvation; he is my great defense; I shall not be moved. |
[2]Deus, Deus meus, ad te de luce vigilo. Sitivit in te anima mea; quam multipliciter tibi caro mea ! |
| [3]How long will you threaten a man so that you may kill him? Like a crumbling wall shall you be and as a tottering fence. |
[3]In terra deserta, et invia, et inaquosa, sic in sancto apparui tibi, ut viderem virtutem tuam et gloriam tuam. |
| [4]For you have thought to cast him down from his excellency; you delight in lies; you bless with your mouths, but curse with your hearts. |
[4]Quoniam melior est misericordia tua super vitas, labia mea laudabunt te. |
| [5]My soul, wait only upon God; for my salvation is from him. |
[5]Sic benedicam te in vita mea; et in nomine tuo levabo manus meas. |
| [6]He only is my God and my salvation; he is my defense; I shall not be moved. |
[6]Sicut adipe et pinguedine repleatur anima mea, et labiis exsultationis laudabit os meum. |
| [7]In God is my salvation and my glory; God is my strength, my refuge, and my hope. |
[7]Si memor fui tui super stratum meum, in matutinis meditabor in te. |
| [8]Trust in him at all times; you people, pour out your hearts before him; God is a refuge for us. |
[8]Quia fuisti adjutor meus, et in velamento alarum tuarum exsultabo. |
| [9]Surely all untrue men are like vapor; when they are placed in the balance, they are found wanting. |
[9]Adhæsit anima mea post te; me suscepit dextera tua. |
| [10]Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery; if riches increase, let not your heart rejoice over them. |
[10]Ipsi vero in vanum quæsierunt animam meam: introibunt in inferiora terræ; |
| [11]God has said this once; twice have I heard this; that power belongs unto God. |
[11]tradentur in manus gladii; partes vulpium erunt. |
| [12]Also unto thee, O LORD, belongs mercy; for thou renderest to every man according to his work. |
[12]Rex vero lætabitur in Deo; laudabuntur omnes qui jurant in eo, quia obstructum est os loquentium iniqua. |
