62:1 Psalmus David, cum esset in deserto Idumææ.

62:1 A psalm of David while he was in the desert of Edom.

62:2 Deus, Deus meus, ad te de luce vigilo. Sitivit in te anima mea ; quam multipliciter tibi caro mea !

62:2 O God, my God, to thee do I watch at break of day. For thee my soul hath thirsted; for thee my flesh, O how many ways!

62:3 In terra deserta, et invia, et inaquosa, sic in sancto apparui tibi, ut viderem virtutem tuam et gloriam tuam.

62:3 In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory.

62:4 Quoniam melior est misericordia tua super vitas, labia mea laudabunt te.

62:4 For thy mercy is better than lives: thee my lips will praise.

62:5 Sic benedicam te in vita mea, et in nomine tuo levabo manus meas.

62:5 Thus will I bless thee all my life long: and in thy name I will lift up my hands.

62:6 Sicut adipe et pinguedine repleatur anima mea, et labiis exsultationis laudabit os meum.

62:6 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.

62:7 Si memor fui tui super stratum meum, in matutinis meditabor in te.

62:7 If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning:

62:8 Quia fuisti adjutor meus, et in velamento alarum tuarum exsultabo.

62:8 Because thou hast been my helper. And I will rejoice under the cover of thy wings:

62:9 Adhæsit anima mea post te ; me suscepit dextera tua.

62:9 My soul hath stuck close to thee: thy right hand hath received me.

62:10 Ipsi vero in vanum quæsierunt animam meam : introibunt in inferiora terræ ;

62:10 But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth:

62:11 tradentur in manus gladii : partes vulpium erunt.

62:11 They shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes.

62:12 Rex vero lætabitur in Deo ; laudabuntur omnes qui jurant in eo : quia obstructum est os loquentium iniqua.

62:12 But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.
