VULC ¹ In finem. Psalmus ipsi David.

WLC ¹ לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד׃

KJV ² I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.

KJV ³ My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spake I with my tongue,

et eduxit me de lacu miseriæ et de luto fæcis.
Et statuit super petram pedes meos,
et direxit gressus meos.

KJV ⁶ Surely every man walketh in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heapeth up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.

VULC ⁶ Multa fecisti tu, Domine Deus meus, mirabilia tua ;
et cogitationibus tuis non est qui similis sit tibi.
Annuntiavi et locutus sum :
multiplicati sunt super numerum.

WLC ⁶ הִנֵּ֤ה טְפָח֨וֹת ׀ נָ֘תַ֤תָּה יָמַ֗י וְחֶלְדִּ֣י כְאַ֣יִן נֶגְדֶּ֑ךָ אַ֥ךְ כָּֽל־ הֶ֥בֶל כָּל־ אָ֝דָ֗ם נִצָּ֥ב סֶֽלָה׃

veritatem tuam et salutare tuum dixi ;
non abscondi misericordiam tuam et veritatem tuam a concilio multo.

misericordia tua et veritas tua semper susceperunt me.

WLC ¹² בְּֽתוֹכָ֘ח֤וֹת עַל־ עָוֺ֨ן ׀ יִסַּ֬רְתָּ אִ֗ישׁ וַתֶּ֣מֶס כָּעָ֣שׁ חֲמוּד֑וֹ אַ֤ךְ הֶ֖בֶל כָּל־ אָדָ֣ם סֶֽלָה׃

KJV ¹³ O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.

VULC ¹³ Quoniam circumdederunt me mala quorum non est numerus ;
comprehenderunt me iniquitates meæ, et non potui ut viderem.
Multiplicatæ sunt super capillos capitis mei,
et cor meum dereliquit me.

WLC ¹³ שִֽׁמְעָ֥ה־ תְפִלָּתִ֨י ׀ יְהוָ֡ה וְשַׁוְעָתִ֨י ׀ הַאֲזִינָה֮ אֶֽל־ דִּמְעָתִ֗י אַֽל־ תֶּ֫חֱרַ֥שׁ כִּ֤י גֵ֣ר אָנֹכִ֣י עִמָּ֑ךְ תּ֝וֹשָׁ֗ב כְּכָל־ אֲבוֹתָֽי׃

VULC ¹⁵ Confundantur et revereantur simul,
qui quærunt animam meam ut auferant eam ;
convertantur retrorsum et revereantur,
qui volunt mihi mala.

VULC ¹⁶ Ferant confestim confusionem suam,
qui dicunt mihi : Euge, euge !

VULC ¹⁷ Exsultent et lætentur super te omnes quærentes te ;
et dicant semper : Magnificetur Dominus, qui diligunt salutare tuum.

VULC ¹⁸ Ego autem mendicus sum et pauper ;
Dominus sollicitus est mei.
Adjutor meus et protector meus tu es ;
Deus meus, ne tardaveris.]
