Comparison
Psalms 141
Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Of understanding for David. A prayer when he was in the cave. | Intellectus David, cum esset in spelunca, oratio. |
| 2 | I cried to the Lord with my voice: with my voice I made supplication to the Lord. | Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi, voce mea ad Dominum deprecatus sum. |
| 3 | In his sight I pour out my prayer, and before him I declare my trouble: | Effundo in conspectu eius orationem meam, et tribulationem meam ante ipsum pronuntio: |
| 4 | When my spirit failed me, then thou newest my paths. | in deficiendo ex me spiritum meum, et tu cognovisti semitas meas. In via hac qua ambulabam absconderunt laqueum mihi. |
| 5 | I looked on my right hand, and beheld, and there was no one that would know me. Flight hath failed me: and there is no one that hath regard to my soul. | Considerabam ad dexteram, et videbam, et non erat qui cognosceret me: periit fuga a me, et non est qui requirat animam meam. |
| 6 | I cried to thee, O Lord: I said: Thou art my hope, my portion in the land of the living. | Clamavi ad te, Domine; dixi: Tu es spes mea, portio mea in terra viventium. |
| 7 | Attend to my supplication: for I am brought very low. Deliver me from my persecutors; for they are stronger than I. | Intende ad deprecationem meam, quia humiliatus sum nimis. Libera me a persequentibus me, quia confortati sunt super me. |
| 8 | Bring my soul out of prison, that I may praise thy name: the just wait for me, until thou reward me. | Educ de custodia animam meam ad confitendum nomini tuo; me exspectant iusti donec retribuas mihi. |
