DRC, KJV, VulgClementine - Psalms - 31

31:1  To David himself, understanding. Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.

31:1  In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.

31:1  Ipsi David intellectus. Beati quorum remissæ sunt iniquitates, et quorum tecta sunt peccata.

31:2  Blessed is the man to whom the Lord hath not imputed sin, and in whose spirit there is no guile.

31:2  Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.

31:2  Beatus vir cui non imputavit Dominus peccatum, nec est in spiritu ejus dolus.

31:3  Because I was silent my bones grew old; whilst I cried out all the day long.

31:3  For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name’s sake lead me, and guide me.

31:3  Quoniam tacui, inveteraverunt ossa mea, dum clamarem tota die.

31:4  For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me: I am turned in my anguish, whilst the thorn is fastened.

31:4  Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.

31:4  Quoniam die ac nocte gravata est super me manus tua, conversus sum in ærumna mea, dum configitur spina.

31:5  I have acknowledged my sin to thee, and my injustice I have not concealed. I said I will confess against my self my injustice to the Lord: and thou hast forgiven the wickedness of my sin.

31:5  Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.

31:5  Delictum meum cognitum tibi feci, et injustitiam meam non abscondi. Dixi : Confitebor adversum me injustitiam meam Domino ; et tu remisisti impietatem peccati mei.

31:6  For this shall every one that is holy pray to thee in a seasonable time. And yet in a flood of many waters, they shall not come nigh unto him.

31:6  I have hated them that regard lying vanities: but I trust in the Lord.

31:6  Pro hac orabit ad te omnis sanctus in tempore opportuno. Verumtamen in diluvio aquarum multarum, ad eum non approximabunt.

31:7  Thou art my refuge from the trouble which hath encompassed me: my joy, deliver me from them that surround me.

31:7  I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my trouble; thou hast known my soul in adversities;

31:7  Tu es refugium meum a tribulatione quæ circumdedit me ; exsultatio mea, erue me a circumdantibus me.

31:8  I will give thee understanding, and I will instruct thee in this way, in which thou shalt go: I will fix my eyes upon thee.

31:8  And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room.

31:8  Intellectum tibi dabo, et instruam te in via hac qua gradieris ; firmabo super te oculos meos.

31:9  Do not become like the horse and the mule, who have no understanding. With bit and bridle bind fast their jaws, who come not near unto thee.

31:9  Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, my soul and my belly.

31:9  Nolite fieri sicut equus et mulus, quibus non est intellectus. In camo et freno maxillas eorum constringe, qui non approximant ad te.

31:10  Many are the scourges of the sinner, but mercy shall encompass him that hopeth in the Lord.

31:10  For my life is spent with grief, and my years with sighing: my strength faileth because of mine iniquity, and my bones are consumed.

31:10  Multa flagella peccatoris ; sperantem autem in Domino misericordia circumdabit.

31:11  Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, ye just, and glory, all ye right of heart.

31:11  I was a reproach among all mine enemies, but especially among my neighbours, and a fear to mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me.

31:11  Lætamini in Domino, et exsultate, justi ; et gloriamini, omnes recti corde.

31:12  I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel.

31:13  For I have heard the slander of many: fear was on every side: while they took counsel together against me, they devised to take away my life.

31:14  But I trusted in thee, O Lord: I said, Thou art my God.

31:15  My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me.

31:16  Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: save me for thy mercies’ sake.

31:17  Let me not be ashamed, O Lord; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, and let them be silent in the grave.

31:18  Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

31:19  Oh how great is thy goodness, which thou hast laid up for them that fear thee; which thou hast wrought for them that trust in thee before the sons of men!

31:20  Thou shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

31:21  Blessed be the Lord: for he hath shewed me his marvellous kindness in a strong city.

31:22  For I said in my haste, I am cut off from before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my supplications when I cried unto thee.

31:23  O love the Lord, all ye his saints: for the Lord preserveth the faithful, and plentifully rewardeth the proud doer.

31:24  Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the Lord.
