| 1 | Unto the end, in verses. A psalm for David. | In finem, in carminibus. Psalmus David. | Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ἐν ψαλμοῖς ᾠδὴ τᾠ Δαυίδ. |
| 2 | When I called upon him, the God of my justice heard me: when I was in distress, thou hast enlarged me. Have mercy on me: and hear my prayer. | Cum invocarem exaudivit me Deus iustitiae meae, in tribulatione dilatasti mihi. Miserere mei, et exaudi orationem meam. | Ἐν τῷ ἐπικαλεῖσθαί με, εἰσήκουσέ μου ὁ Θεὸς τῆς δικαιοσύνης μου· ἐν θλίψει ἐπλάτυνάς μοι· οἰκτείρησόν με, καὶ εἰσάκουσον τῆς προσευχῆς μου. |
| 3 | O ye sons of men, how long will you be dull of heart? why do you love vanity, and seek after lying? | Filii hominum, usquequo gravi corde? ut quid diligitis vanitatem, et quaeritis mendacium? | Υἱοὶ ἀνθρώπων, ἕως πότε βαρυκάρδιοι; ἱνατί ἀγαπᾶτε ματαιότητα, καὶ ζητεῖτε ψεῦδος; διάψαλμα. |
| 4 | Know ye also that the Lord hath made his holy one wonderful: the Lord will hear me when I shall cry unto him. | Et scitote quoniam mirificavit Dominus sanctum suum; Dominus exaudiet me cum clamavero ad eum. | Καὶ γνῶτε ὅτι ἐθαυμάστωσε Κύριος τὸν ὅσιον αὐτοῦ, Κύριος εἰσακούσεταί μου ἐν τῷ κεκραγέναι με πρὸς αὐτόν. |
| 5 | Be angry, and sin not: the things you say in your hearts, be sorry for them upon your beds. | Irascimini, et nolite peccare; quae dicitis in cordibus vestris, in cubilibus vestris compungimini. | Ὀργίζεσθε καὶ μὴ ἁμαρτάνετε· ἃ λέγετε ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν, ἐπὶ ταῖς κοίταις ὑμῶν κατανύγητε· διάψαλμα. |
| 6 | Offer up the sacrifice of justice, and trust in the Lord: many say, Who sheweth us good things? | Sacrificate sacrificium iustitiae, et sperate in Domino. Multi dicunt: Quis ostendit nobis bona? | Θύσατε θυσίαν δικαιοσύνης, καὶ ἐλπίσατε ἐπὶ Κύριον. |
| 7 | The light of thy countenance O Lord, is signed upon us: thou hast given gladness in my heart. | Signatum est super nos lumen vultus tui, Domine: dedisti laetitiam in corde meo. | Πολλοὶ λέγουσι, τίς δείξει ἡμῖν τὰ ἀγαθά; ἐσημειώθη ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς τὸ φῶς τοῦ προσώπου σου, Κύριε. |
| 8 | By the fruit of their corn, their wine and oil, they are multiplied. | A fructu frumenti, vini, et olei sui, multiplicati sunt. | Ἔδωκας εὐφροσύνην εἰς τὴν καρδίαν μου· ἀπὸ καρποῦ σίτου καὶ οἴνου καὶ ἐλαίου αὐτῶν ἐπληθύνθησαν. |
| 9 | In peace in the selfsame I will sleep, and I will rest: | In pace in idipsum dormiam, et requiescam; | Ἐν εἰρήνῃ ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ κοιμηθήσομαι, καὶ ὑπνώσω· ὅτι σὺ Κύριε κατὰ μόνας ἐπʼ ἐλπίδι κατῴκισάς με. |
| 10 | For thou, O Lord, singularly hast settled me in hope. | quoniam tu, Domine, singulariter in spe constituisti me. | — |
