Psalms 12

1Unto the end, a psalm for David. How long, O Lord, wilt thou forget me unto the end? how long dost thou turn away thy face from me?

In finem. Psalmus David. Usquequo, Domine, oblivisceris me in finem? usquequo avertis faciem tuam a me?

2How long shall I take counsels in my soul, sorrow in my heart all the day?

quamdiu ponam consilia in anima mea; dolorem in corde meo per diem?

3How long shall my enemy be exalted over Me?

usquequo exaltabitur inimicus meus super me?

4Consider, and hear me, O Lord, my God. Enlighten my eyes, that I never sleep in death:

Respice, et exaudi me, Domine Deus meus. Illumina oculos meos, ne umquam obdormiam in morte;

5Lest at any time my enemy say: I have prevailed against him. They that trouble me, will rejoice when I am moved:

nequando dicat inimicus meus: Prævalui adversus eum. Qui tribulant me exsultabunt si motus fuero;

6But I have trusted in thy mercy. My heart shall rejoice in thy salvation: I will sing to the Lord, who giveth me good things: yea, I will sing to the name of the Lord, the most high.

ego autem in misericordia tua speravi. Exsultabit cor meum in salutari tuo. Cantabo Domino qui bona tribuit mihi; et psallam nomini Domini altissimi.
