| [1]For the Leader; upon Shoshannim. A Psalm of David. |
[1]In finem. Psalmus David in rememorationem, quod salvum fecerit eum Dominus. |
| [2]Save me, O God; for the waters are come in even unto the soul. |
[2]Deus, in adjutorium meum intende; Domine, ad adjuvandum me festina. |
| [3]I am sunk in deep mire, where there is no standing; I am come into deep waters, and the flood overwhelmeth me. |
[3]Confundantur, et revereantur, qui quærunt animam meam. |
| [4]I am weary of my crying; my throat is dried; mine eyes fail while I wait for my God. |
[4]Avertantur retrorsum, et erubescant, qui volunt mihi mala; avertantur statim erubescentes qui dicunt mihi: Euge, euge ! |
| [5]They that hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; they that would cut me off, being mine enemies wrongfully, are many; should I restore that which I took not away? |
[5]Exsultent et lætentur in te omnes qui quærunt te; et dicant semper: Magnificetur Dominus, qui diligunt salutare tuum. |
| [6]O God, Thou knowest my folly; and my trespasses are not hid from Thee. |
[6]Ego vero egenus et pauper sum; Deus, adjuva me. Adjutor meus et liberator meus es tu; Domine, ne moreris. |
| [7]Let not them that wait for Thee be ashamed through me, O Lord 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 of hosts; let not those that seek Thee be brought to confusion through me, O God of Israel. |
