Hominis a Deo castigati precatio |
Prayer of a man chastised by God |
Nunc anima mea turbata est... Pater, salvifica me ex hora hac? (Io 12, 27) |
My soul is in turmoil... Father, save me from this hour? (John 12:27) |
2 DOMINE, ne in furore tuo arguas me, * neque in ira tua corripias me. |
2 O LORD, do not reprove me in Thy wrath, * nor in Thy anger chastise me. |
3 Miserere mei, Domine, quoniam infirmus sum; * sana me, Domine, quoniam conturbata sunt ossa mea. |
3 Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am weak, * heal me, Lord, for my body is in torment. |
4 Et anima mea turbata est valde, * sed tu, Domine, usquequo? |
4 And my soul is greatly troubled, * but Thou, O Lord, how long? |
5 Convertere, Domine, et eripe animam meam; * salvum me fac propter misericordiam tuam. |
5 Turn to me, O Lord, and deliver my soul; * save me on account of Thy mercy. |
6 Quoniam non est in morte, qui memor sit tui, * in inferno autem quis confitebitur tibi? |
6 For who amongst the dead remembers Thee, * who of the dead will tell of Thee? |
7 Laboravi in gemitu meo, lavabo per singulas noctes lectum meum; * lacrimis meis stratum meum rigabo. |
7 I have suffered and wept, every night have I washed my bed * and drenched my blanket with my tears. |
8 Turbatus est a furore oculus meus, * inveteravi inter omnes inimicos meos. |
8 My eyes are filled with grief, * I have grown feeble in the midst of my enemies. |
9 Discedite a me omnes, qui operamini iniquitatem, * quoniam exaudivit Dominus vocem fletus mei. |
9 Leave me, all you who do evil, * for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping. |
10 Exaudivit Dominus deprecationem meam, * Dominus orationem meam suscepit. |
10 The Lord has heard my appeal, * the Lord has accepted my prayer. |
11 Erubescant et conturbentur vehementer omnes inimici mei; * convertantur et erubescant valde velociter. |
11 May my enemies be put to shame and come to ruin. * May they be turned away and be swiftly put to shame. |
