31:2 Bow down thy ear to me: make haste to deliver me. Be thou unto me a God, a protector, and a house of refuge, to save me.

31:3 quoniam fortitudo mea et refugium meum es tu et propter nomen tuum deduces me et enutries me

31:3 For thou art my strength and my refuge; and for thy name's sake thou wilt lead me, and nourish me.

31:6 odisti observantes vanitates supervacue ego autem in Domino speravi

31:6 Thou hast hated them that regard vanities, to no purpose. But I have hoped in the Lord:

31:7 exultabo et laetabor in misericordia tua quoniam respexisti humilitatem meam salvasti de necessitatibus animam meam

31:7 I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy. For thou hast regarded my humility, thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.

31:8 And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.

31:9 Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:

31:10 quoniam defecit in dolore vita mea et anni mei in gemitibus infirmata est in paupertate virtus mea et ossa mea conturbata sunt

31:11 I am become a reproach among all my enemies, and very much to my neighbours; and a fear to my acquaintance. They that saw me without fled from me.

31:12 oblivioni datus sum tamquam mortuus a corde factus sum tamquam vas perditum

31:12 I am forgotten as one dead from the heart. I am become as a vessel that is destroyed.

31:13 quoniam audivi vituperationem multorum commorantium in circuitu in eo dum convenirent simul adversus me accipere animam meam consiliati sunt

31:13 For I have heard the blame of many that dwell round about. While they assembled together against me, they consulted to take away my life.

31:17 Domine ne confundar quoniam invocavi te erubescant impii et deducantur in infernum

31:17 Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee. Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell.

31:18 muta fiant labia dolosa quae loquuntur adversus iustum iniquitatem in superbia et in abusione

31:18 Let deceitful lips be made dumb. Which speak iniquity against the just, with pride and abuse.
