| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in thy truth: hear me in thy justice. | Psalmus David, quando persequebatur eum Absalom filius eius. Domine, exaudi orationem meam; auribus percipe obsecrationem meam in veritate tua; exaudi me in tua iustitia. |
| 2 | And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight no man living shall be justified. | Et non intres in iudicium cum servo tuo, quia non iustificabitur in conspectu tuo omnis vivens. |
| 3 | For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: he hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been dead of old: | Quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam; humiliavit in terra vitam meam; collocavit me in obscuris, sicut mortuos saeculi. |
| 4 | And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled. | Et anxiatus est super me spiritus meus; in me turbatum est cor meum. |
| 5 | I remembered the days of old, I meditated on all thy works: I meditated upon the works of thy hands. | Memor fui dierum antiquorum; meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis: in factis manuum tuarum meditabar. |
| 6 | I stretched forth my hands to thee: my soul is as earth without water unto thee. | Expandi manus meas ad te; anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi. |
| 7 | Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not away thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit. | Velociter exaudi me, Domine; defecit spiritus meus. Non avertas faciem tuam a me, et similis ero descendentibus in lacum. |
| 8 | Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for in thee have I hoped. Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: for I have lifted up my soul to thee. | Auditam fac mihi mane misericordiam tuam, quia in te speravi. Notam fac mihi viam in qua ambulem, quia ad te levavi animam meam. |
| 9 | Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, to thee have I fled: | Eripe me de inimicis meis, Domine: ad te confugi. |
| 10 | Teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God. Thy good spirit shall lead me into the right land: | Doce me facere voluntatem tuam, quia Deus meus es tu. Spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terram rectam. |
| 11 | For thy name’s sake, O Lord, thou wilt quicken me in thy justice. Thou wilt bring my soul out of trouble: | Propter nomen tuum, Domine, vivificabis me: in aequitate tua, educes de tribulatione animam meam, |
| 12 | And in thy mercy thou wilt destroy my enemies. And thou wilt cut off all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant. | et in misericordia tua disperdes inimicos meos, et perdes omnes qui tribulant animam meam, quoniam ego servus tuus sum. |
