1 | In parts according to verses. A Psalm of David. For the octave. |
2 | O Lord, do not rebuke me in your fury, nor chastise me in your anger. |
3 | Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am weak. Heal me, Lord, for my bones have become disturbed, |
4 | and my soul has been very troubled. But as for you, Lord, when? |
5 | Turn to me, Lord, and rescue my soul. Save me because of your mercy. |
6 | For there is no one in death who would be mindful of you. And who will confess to you in Hell? |
7 | I have labored in my groaning. Every night, with my tears, I will wash my bed and drench my blanket. |
8 | My eye has been troubled by rage. I have grown old among all my enemies. |
9 | Scatter before me, all you who work iniquity, for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping. |
10 | The Lord has heard my supplication. The Lord has accepted my prayer. |
11 | Let all my enemies be ashamed and together be greatly troubled. May they be converted and become ashamed very quickly. |
