Liber Psalmorum

In finem, ne disperdas. David in tituli inscriptionem.

Unto the end, destroy not, for David, for an inscription of a title.

In fine, ne disperde. Davide in titulo inscriptione.

Si vere utique justitiam loquimini, recta judicate, filii hominum.

If in very deed ye speak justice: judge right things, ye sons of men.

Si vere utique iustitia loque, rectus iudica, filios de homines.

Etenim in corde iniquitates operamini; in terra injustitias manus vestræ concinnant.

For in your heart you work iniquity: your hands forge injustice in the earth.

Etenim in corde iniquitates operor; in terra manus vestro concinna iniustitias.

Alienati sunt peccatores a vulva; erraverunt ab utero: locuti sunt falsa.

The wicked are alienated from the womb; they have gone astray from the womb: they have spoken false things.

Aliena es peccatores ab vulva; erra ab utero: loque es falso.

Furor illis secundum similitudinem serpentis, sicut aspidis surdæ et obturantis aures suas,

Their madness is according to the likeness of a serpent: like the deaf asp that stoppeth her ears:

Furore ad illos secundo similitudine de serpente, sicut aspide de surda et obtura aures suo,

quæ non exaudiet vocem incantantium, et venefici incantantis sapienter.

Which will not hear the voice of the charmers; nor of the wizard that charmeth wisely.

Que non exaudi voce incanta, et venefico incanta sapienter.

Deus conteret dentes eorum in ore ipsorum; molas leonum confringet Dominus.

God shall break in pieces their teeth in their mouth: the Lord shall break the grinders of the lions.

Deo contere dentes de illos in ore ipso; molas de leones Domino confringe.

Ad nihilum devenient tamquam aqua decurrens; intendit arcum suum donec infirmentur.

They shall come to nothing, like water running down; he hath bent his bow till they be weakened.

Ad nihilo deveni sicut aqua decurre; intende arcu suo usque que infirma.

Sicut cera quæ fluit auferentur; supercecidit ignis, et non viderunt solem.

Like wax that melteth they shall be taken away: fire hath fallen on them, and they shall not see the sun.

Sicut cera que flue aufer; igni supercecida, et non vide sole.

Priusquam intelligerent spinæ vestræ rhamnum, sicut viventes sic in ira absorbet eos.

Before your thorns could know the brier; he swalloweth them up, as alive, in his wrath.

Antequam spinas vestro intellige rhamno, sicut vive sic in ira absorbe illos.

Lætabitur justus cum viderit vindictam; manus suas lavabit in sanguine peccatoris.

The just shall rejoice when he shall see the revenge: he shall wash his hands in the blood of the sinner.

Laetor iusto cum vide vindicta; manus suo lava in sanguine de peccatore.

Et dicet homo: Si utique est fructus justo, utique est Deus judicans eos in terra.

And man shall say: If indeed there be fruit to the just: there is indeed a God that judgeth them on the earth.

Et homine dic: si utique fructu iusto es, utique Deo es iudica illos in terra.
