Clementine Latin Vulgate (1592)
aut poterit in Omnipotente delectari, et invocare Deum omni tempore ?
Jerome's Latin Vulgate (405)
span data-lang="lat" data-trans="jvl" data-ref="psa.27.1" class="versetxt"> Psalmus ipsi David. [Ad te, Domine, clamabo; Deus meus, ne sileas a me:
nequando taceas a me, et assimilabor descendentibus in lacum.
Exaudi, Domine, vocem deprecationis me� dum oro ad te;
dum extollo manus meas ad templum sanctum tuum.
Ne simul trahas me cum peccatoribus,
et cum operantibus iniquitatem ne perdas me;
qui loquuntur pacem cum proximo suo,
mala autem in cordibus eorum.
Da illis secundum opera eorum,
et secundum nequitiam adinventionum ipsorum.
Secundum opera manuum eorum tribue illis;
redde retributionem eorum ipsis.
Quoniam non intellexerunt opera Domini,
et in opera manuum ejus destrues illos,
et non �dificabis eos.
Benedictus Dominus,
quoniam exaudivit vocem deprecationis me�.
Dominus adjutor meus et protector meus;
in ipso speravit cor meum, et adjutus sum:
et refloruit caro mea,
et ex voluntate mea confitebor ei.
Dominus fortitudo plebis su�,
et protector salvationum christi sui est.
Salvum fac populum tuum, Domine, et benedic h�reditati tu�;
et rege eos, et extolle illos usque in �ternum.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When my father and my mother forsake me,.... Which is not to be understood strictly and literally of his parents, that were in that near relation to him according to the flesh, nor of anything that had past; not of his parents leaving him to shift for himself, after having brought him up; nor of his father being unmindful of him, when Samuel came to anoint one of his sons to be king; nor of any slight and neglect of him by them when persecuted by Saul; nor of their inability to help him then; see 1 Samuel 22:3; but this is to be understood of something supposed yet to come; and it seems best to interpret it of his nearest and dearest friends, his closest adherents, best counsellors, and most firm allies; that when they should fail and drop him, his God would not leave him: the design of it is to set forth the love and care of God, as superior to that of the most affectionate friends; see Isaiah 49:14;

then the Lord will take me up; like a foundling in the street, and such are called, in the Talmudic language, "persons gathered up" i; and so the words may be rendered here, "then the Lord will gather me" k; into his arms and bosom, and under the wings of his protection, and at last to himself in glory.

i T. Bab. Kiddushin, fol. 69. 1. k יאספני "colliget me", Pagninus, Montanus; "collegit me", Musculus, Vatablus, Gejerus; so Ainsworth.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

When my father and my mother forsake me - If they should do it. The psalmist supposes it possible that this might occur. It does occur, though very rarely; but the psalmist means to say that the love of God is stronger and more certain than even that of a father or mother, since he will never forsake his people. Though every other tie that binds heart to heart should dissolve, this will remain; though a case might occur in which we could not be sure of the love that naturally springs out of the most tender earthly relationships, yet we can always confide in His love. See the notes at Isaiah 49:15.

Then the Lord will take me up - Margin, “will gather me.” The margin expresses the usual meaning of the word. It is sometimes used as referring to the hospitable reception of strangers or wanderers into one’s house: Judges 19:15, Judges 19:18; Joshua 20:4. The meaning here is, that if he should be forsaken by his nearest earthly friends, and be an outcast and a wanderer, so that no one on earth would take him in, the Lord would then receive him.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 27:10. When my father and my mother forsake me — Or, more literally, "For my father and my mother have forsaken me; but the Lord hath gathered me up." My parents were my protectors for a time; but the Lord has been my Protector always. There is no time in which I do not fall under his merciful regards.
