Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your loving devotion; according to Your great compassion, blot out my transgressions.
1In finem. Intellectus David,
2Wash me clean of my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin.
2cum venit Doëg Idumæus, et nuntiavit Sauli: Venit David in domum Achimelech.
3For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me.
3[Quid gloriaris in malitia, qui potens es in iniquitate?
4Against You, You only, have I sinned and done what is evil in Your sight, so that You may be proved right when You speak and blameless when You judge.
4Tota die injustitiam cogitavit lingua tua; sicut novacula acuta fecisti dolum.
5Surely I was brought forth in iniquity; I was sinful when my mother conceived me.
5Dilexisti malitiam super benignitatem; iniquitatem magis quam loqui æquitatem.
6Surely You desire truth in the inmost being; You teach me wisdom in the inmost place.
6Dilexisti omnia verba præcipitationis; lingua dolosa.
7Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.
7Propterea Deus destruet te in finem; evellet te, et emigrabit te de tabernaculo tuo, et radicem tuam de terra viventium.
8Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones You have crushed rejoice.
8Videbunt justi, et timebunt; et super eum ridebunt, et dicent:
9Hide Your face from my sins and blot out all my iniquities.
9Ecce homo qui non posuit Deum adjutorem suum; sed speravit in multitudine divitiarum suarum, et prævaluit in vanitate sua.
10Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
10Ego autem, sicut oliva fructifera in domo Dei; speravi in misericordia Dei, in æternum et in sæculum sæculi.
11Cast me not away from Your presence; take not Your Holy Spirit from me.
11Confitebor tibi in sæculum, quia fecisti; et exspectabo nomen tuum, quoniam bonum est in conspectu sanctorum tuorum.]
12Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and sustain me with a willing spirit.
