Psalmus 140. (8c)		Psalm 140.
140:1.	Dómine, clamávi ad te, exáudi me : * inténde voci meæ, cum clamávero ad te.	1.	I have cried to thee, O Lord, hear me: * hearken to my voice, when I cry to thee.
140:2.	Dirigátur orátio mea sicut incénsum in conspéctu tuo : * elevátio mánuum meárum sacrifícium vespertínum.	2.	Let my prayer be directed as incense in thy sight; * the lifting up of my hands, as evening sacrifice.
140:3.	Pone, Dómine, custódiam ori meo : * et óstium circumstántiæ lábiis meis.	3.	Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth: * and a door round about my lips.
140:4.	Non declínes cor meum in verba malítiæ, * ad excusándas excusatiónes in peccátis.	4.	Incline not my heart to evil words; * to make excuses in sins.
140:5.	Cum homínibus operántibus iniquitátem : * et non communicábo cum eléctis eórum.	5.	With men that work iniquity: * and I will not communicate with the choicest of them.
140:6.	Corrípiet me justus in misericórdia, et increpábit me : * óleum autem peccatóris non impínguet caput meum.	6.	The just man shall correct me in mercy, and shall reprove me: * but let not the oil of the sinner fatten my head.
140:7.	Quóniam adhuc et orátio mea in beneplácitis eórum : * absórpti sunt juncti petræ júdices eórum.	7.	For my prayer also shall still be against the things with which they are well pleased: * their judges falling upon the rock have been swallowed up.
140:8.	Audient verba mea quóniam potuérunt : * sicut crassitúdo terræ erúpta est super terram.	8.	They shall hear my words, for they have prevailed: * as when the thickness of the earth is broken up upon the ground.
140:9.	Dissipáta sunt ossa nostra secus inférnum : † quia ad te, Dómine, Dómine, óculi mei : * in te sperávi, non áuferas ánimam meam.	9.	Our bones are scattered by the side of hell. * But to thee, O Lord, Lord, are my eyes: in thee have I put my trust, take not away my soul.
140:10.	Custódi me a láqueo, quem statuérunt mihi : * et a scándalis operántium iniquitátem.	10.	Keep me from the snare, which they have laid for me, * and from the stumbling blocks of them that work iniquity.
140:11.	Cadent in retiáculo ejus peccatóres : * singuláriter sum ego donec tránseam.	11.	The wicked shall fall in his net: * I am alone until I pass.
V.	Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.	V.	Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
R.	Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.	R.	As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
