Psalmus 11 (12)

Psalm 11 (12)

1 In finem pro octava Psalmus David 1 Unto the end; for the octave, a psalm for David.
2 Salvum me fac Domine quoniam defecit sanctus quoniam deminutae sunt veritates a filiis hominum 2 Save me, O Lord, for there is now no saint: truths are decayed from among the children of men.
3 Vana locuti sunt unusquisque ad proximum suum labia dolosa in corde et corde locuti sunt 3 They have spoken vain things every one to his neighbour: with deceitful lips, and with a double heart have they spoken.
4 Disperdat Dominus universa labia dolosa linguam magniloquam 4 May the Lord destroy all deceitful lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things.
5 Qui dixerunt linguam nostram magnificabimus labia nostra a nobis sunt quis noster dominus est 5 Who have said: We will magnify our tongue; our lips are our own; who is Lord over us?
6 Propter miseriam inopum et gemitum pauperum nunc exsurgam dicit Dominus ponam in salutari fiducialiter agam in eo 6 By reason of the misery of the needy, and the groans of the poor, now will I arise, saith the Lord. I win set him in safety; I will deal confidently in his regard.
7 Eloquia Domini eloquia casta argentum igne examinatum probatum terrae purgatum septuplum 7 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried by the fire, purged from the earth refined seven times.
8 Tu Domine servabis nos et custodies nos a generatione hac et in aeternum 8 Thou, O Lord, wilt preserve us.: and keep us from this generation for ever.
9 In circuitu impii ambulant secundum altitudinem tuam multiplicasti filios hominum 9 The wicked walk round about: according to thy highness, thou best multiplied the children of men.
