Psalmus 30 (10,19)

Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: * my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:

2. Quóniam defécit in dolóre vita mea: * et anni mei in gemítibus.

For my life is wasted with grief: * and my years in sighs.

While they assembled together against me, * they consulted to take away my life.

8. Ego autem in te sperávi, Dómine: † dixi: Deus meus es tu: * in mánibus tuis sortes meæ.

But I have put my trust in thee, O Lord: * I said: Thou art my God. My lots are in thy hands.

9. Eripe me de manu inimicórum meórum, * et a persequéntibus me.

Deliver me out of the hands of my enemies; * and from them that persecute me

10. Illústra fáciem tuam super servum tuum, † salvum me fac in misericórdia tua: * Dómine, non confúndar, quóniam invocávi te.

Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; save me in thy mercy. * Let me not be confounded, O Lord, for I have called upon thee.

11. Erubéscant ímpii, et deducántur in inférnum: * muta fiant lábia dolósa.

Let the wicked be ashamed, and be brought down to hell. * Let deceitful lips be made dumb.
