Psalmus 9.  IV.
Psalm 9.
9:33. Exsúrge, Dómine Deus, exaltétur manus tua : * ne obliviscáris páuperum. 33. Arise, O Lord God, let thy hand be exalted: * forget not the poor.
9:34. Propter quid irritávit ímpius Deum? * dixit enim in corde suo : Non requíret. 34. Wherefore hath the wicked provoked God? * for he hath said in his heart: He will not require it.
9:35. Vides quóniam tu labórem et dolórem consíderas : * ut tradas eos in manus tuas. 35. Thou seest it, for thou considerest labour and sorrow: * that thou mayst deliver them into thy hands.
9:36. Tibi derelíctus est pauper : * órphano tu eris adjútor. 36. To thee is the poor man left: * thou wilt be a helper to the orphan.
9:37. Cóntere bráchium peccatóris et malígni : * quærétur peccátum illíus, et non inveniétur. 37. Break thou the arm of the sinner and of the malignant: * his sin shall be sought, and shall not be found.
9:38. Dóminus regnábit in ætérnum, et in sǽculum sǽculi : * períbitis, Gentes, de terra illíus. 38. The Lord shall reign to eternity, yea, for ever and ever: * ye Gentiles shall perish from his land.
9:39. Desidérium páuperum exaudívit Dóminus : * præparatiónem cordis eórum audívit auris tua. 39. The Lord hath heard the desire of the poor: * thy ear hath heard the preparation of their heart.
9:39. Judicáre pupíllo et húmili, * ut non appónat ultra magnificáre se homo super terram. 39. To judge for the fatherless and for the humble, * that man may no more presume to magnify himself upon earth.
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.
