Qui sequitur me, non ambulabit in tenebris, sed habebit lucem vitæ (Io 8, 12).
He who follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life (Jn 8:12).
Susúrrat iníquitas ad ímpium in médio cordis eius; * non est timor Dei ante óculos eius.
The unjust hath said within himself, that he would sin: there is no fear of God before his eyes.
Quóniam blandítur ipsi in conspéctu eius, * ut non invéniat iniquitátem suam et óderit.
For in his sight he hath done deceitfully, that his iniquity may be found unto hatred.
Verba oris eius iníquitas et dolus * désiit intellégere, ut bene ágeret.
The words of his mouth are iniquity and guile: he would not understand that he might do well.
Iniquitátem meditátus est in cubíli suo, † ástitit omni viæ non bonæ, * malítiam autem non odívit.
He hath devised iniquity on his bed, he hath set himself on every way that is not good: but evil he hath not hated.
Dómine, in cælo misericórdia tua * et véritas tua usque ad nubes;
O Lord, thy mercy is in heaven, and thy truth reacheth even to the clouds.
iustítia tua sicut montes Dei, † iudícia tua abyssus multa: * hómines et iuménta salvábis, Dómine.
Thy justice is as the mountains of God, thy judgments are a great deep. Men and beasts thou wilt preserve, O Lord:
Quam pretiósa misericórdia tua, Deus! * Fílii autem hóminum in tégmine alárum tuárum sperábunt;
O how hast thou multiplied thy mercy, O God! But the children of men shall put their trust under the covert of thy wings.
inebriabúntur ab ubertáte domus tuæ, * et torrénte voluptátis tuæ potábis eos.
They shall be inebriated with the plenty of thy house; and thou shalt make them drink of the torrent of thy pleasure.
Quóniam apud te est fons vitæ, * et in lúmine tuo vidébimus lumen.

Ibi cecidérunt, qui operántur iniquitátem, * expúlsi sunt, nec potuérunt stare.
