The Latin Vulgate VUL
Revised Standard Version RSV
1 canticum graduum de profundis clamavi ad te Domine
1
A Song of Ascents. "Sorely have they afflicted me from my youth," let Israel now say--
2 Domine exaudi vocem meam fiant aures tuae intendentes in vocem deprecationis meae
2
"Sorely have they afflicted me from my youth, yet they have not prevailed against me.
3 si iniquitates observabis Domine Domine quis sustinebit
3
The plowers plowed upon my back; they made long their furrows."
4 quia apud te propitiatio est propter legem tuam sustinui te Domine sustinuit anima mea in verbum eius
4
The LORD is righteous; he has cut the cords of the wicked.
5 speravit anima mea in Domino
5
May all who hate Zion be put to shame and turned backward!
6 a custodia matutina usque ad noctem speret Israhel in Domino
6
Let them be like the grass on the housetops, which withers before it grows up,
7 quia apud Dominum misericordia et copiosa apud eum redemptio
7
with which the reaper does not fill his hand or the binder of sheaves his bosom,
8 et ipse redimet Israhel ex omnibus iniquitatibus eius
8
while those who pass by do not say, "The blessing of the LORD be upon you! We bless you in the name of the LORD!"
