World English Bible
1Canticum graduum. [De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine;
1Many times they have afflicted me from my youth up. Let Israel now say:
2Domine, exaudi vocem meam. Fiant aures tuæ intendentes in vocem deprecationis meæ.
2many times they have afflicted me from my youth up, yet they have not prevailed against me.
3Si iniquitates observaveris, Domine, Domine, quis sustinebit?
3The plowers plowed on my back. They made their furrows long.
4Quia apud te propitiatio est; et propter legem tuam sustinui te, Domine. Sustinuit anima mea in verbo ejus:
4The LORD is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.
5speravit anima mea in Domino.
5Let them be disappointed and turned backward, all those who hate Zion.
6A custodia matutina usque ad noctem, speret Israël in Domino.
6Let them be as the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,
7Quia apud Dominum misericordia, et copiosa apud eum redemptio.
7with which the reaper doesn’t fill his hand, nor he who binds sheaves, his bosom.
8Et ipse redimet Israël ex omnibus iniquitatibus ejus.]
8Neither do those who go by say, “The blessing of the LORD be on you. We bless you in the LORD’s name.”
