Beatus qui intelligit super egenum et pauperem: in die mala liberabit eum Dominus.

Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor: the Lord will deliver him in the evil day.

Beato qui intellege super egeno et paupere: in die malo Domino libera illo.

Dominus conservet eum, et vivificet eum, et beatum faciat eum in terra, et non tradat eum in animam inimicorum ejus.

The Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth: and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies.

Domino conserva illo, et vivifica illo, et beato que fac illo in terra, et non trade illo in anima de inimicos de illo.

Dominus opem ferat illi super lectum doloris ejus; universum stratum ejus versasti in infirmitate ejus.

The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow: thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.

Domino fer ope ad illo super lecto de dolore de illo; universa strato de illo versa in infirmitate de illo.

Ego dixi: Domine, miserere mei; sana animam meam, quia peccavi tibi.

I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me: heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee.

Me dic: domino, misereor meo; sana anima meo, quia pecca ad te.

Inimici mei dixerunt mala mihi: Quando morietur, et peribit nomen ejus?

My enemies have spoken evils against me: when shall he die and his name perish?

Inimicos meo dic malo ad me: quando more, et nomine de illo peri?

Et si ingrediebatur ut videret, vana loquebatur; cor ejus congregavit iniquitatem sibi. Egrediebatur foras et loquebatur.

And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things: his heart gathered together iniquity to itself. He went out and spoke to the same purpose.

Et si ingredior ut vide, vana loque; corde de illo congrega iniquitate ad se. Egredior foras et loque.

In idipsum adversum me susurrabant omnes inimici mei; adversum me cogitabant mala mihi.

All my enemies whispered together against me: they devised evils to me.

In idipso contra me susurra omni inimicos meo; contra me cogita malo ad me.

Verbum iniquum constituerunt adversum me: Numquid qui dormit non adjiciet ut resurgat?

They determined against me an unjust word: shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?

Verbo iniquo constitue contra me: numquid qui dormi non adiice ut resurge?

Etenim homo pacis meæ in quo speravi, qui edebat panes meos, magnificavit super me supplantationem.

For even the man of my peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me.

Etenim homine de pace meo in quo spera, qui ede panes meo, magnifica super me supplantatione.

Tu autem, Domine, miserere mei, et resuscita me; et retribuam eis.

But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again: and I will requite them.

Te autem, Domino, misereor meo, et resuscita me; et retribue ad illos.

In hoc cognovi quoniam voluisti me, quoniam non gaudebit inimicus meus super me.

By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me: because my enemy shall not rejoice over me.

In hoc cognosce quia vol me, quia non inimico meo gaude super me.

Me autem propter innocentiam suscepisti; et confirmasti me in conspectu tuo in æternum.

But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence: and hast established me in thy sight for ever.

Me autem propter innocentia suscipe; et confirma me in conspectu tuo in aeterno.
