Parallel
Psalms 141
Clementine Vulgate · Berean Standard Bible
Intellectus David, cum esset in spelunca, oratio.
A Psalm of David. I call upon You, O LORD; come quickly to me. Hear my voice when I call to You.
Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi, voce mea ad Dominum deprecatus sum.
May my prayer be set before You like incense; my uplifted hands, like the evening offering.
Effundo in conspectu ejus orationem meam, et tribulationem meam ante ipsum pronuntio :
Set a guard, O LORD, over my mouth; keep watch at the door of my lips.
in deficiendo ex me spiritum meum, et tu cognovisti semitas meas. In via hac qua ambulabam absconderunt laqueum mihi.
Do not let my heart be drawn to any evil thing or take part in works of wickedness with men who do iniquity; let me not feast on their delicacies.
Considerabam ad dexteram, et videbam, et non erat qui cognosceret me : periit fuga a me, et non est qui requirat animam meam.
Let the righteous man strike me; let his rebuke be an act of loving devotion. It is oil for my head; let me not refuse it. For my prayer is ever against the deeds of the wicked.
Clamavi ad te, Domine ; dixi : Tu es spes mea, portio mea in terra viventium.
When their rulers are thrown down from the cliffs, the people will listen to my words, for they are pleasant.
Intende ad deprecationem meam, quia humiliatus sum nimis. Libera me a persequentibus me, quia confortati sunt super me.
As when one plows and breaks up the soil, so our bones have been scattered at the mouth of Sheol.
Educ de custodia animam meam ad confitendum nomini tuo ; me exspectant justi donec retribuas mihi.
But my eyes are fixed on You, O GOD the Lord. In You I seek refuge; do not leave my soul defenseless.
