SACRA PAGINA

§ The Book of Psalms 119

Liber Psalmorum · Parallel

1 In my trouble I cried to the Lord: and he heard me.

Ad Dominum cum tribularer clamavi, et exaudivit me.

2 O Lord, deliver my soul from wicked lips, and a deceitful tongue.

Domine, libera animam meam a labiis iniquis et a lingua dolosa.

3 What shall be given to thee, or what shall be added to thee, to a deceitful tongue?

Quid detur tibi, aut quid apponatur tibi ad linguam dolosam?

4 The sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals that lay waste.

Sagittæ potentis acutæ, cum carbonibus desolatoriis.

5 Woe is me, that my sojourning is prolonged! I have dwelt with the inhabitants of Cedar:

Heu mihi, quia incolatus meus prolongatus est! habitavi cum habitantibus Cedar;

6 my soul hath been long a sojourner.

multum incola fuit anima mea.

7 With them that hated peace I was peaceable: when I spoke to them they fought against me without cause.

Cum his qui oderunt pacem eram pacificus; cum loquebar illis, impugnabant me gratis.
