1 [In finem, in carminibus. Psalmus David. Pro octava.] 2 Domine, ne in furore tuo arguas me, neque in ira tua corripias me. 3 Miserere mei, Domine, quoniam infirmus sum; sana me, Domine, quoniam conturbata sunt ossa mea. 4 Et anima mea turbata est valde; sed tu, Domine, usquequo? 5 Convertere, Domine, et eripe animam meam; salvum me fac propter misericordiam tuam. 6 Quoniam non est in morte qui memor sit tui; in inferno autem quis confitebitur tibi? 7 Laboravi in gemitu meo; lavabo per singulas noctes lectum meum: lacrimis meis stratum meum rigabo. 8 Turbatus est a furore oculus meus; inveteravi inter omnes inimicos meos. 9 Discedite a me omnes qui operamini iniquitatem, quoniam exaudivit Dominus vocem fletus mei. 10 Exaudivit Dominus deprecationem meam; Dominus orationem meam suscepit. 11 Erubescant, et conturbentur vehementer, omnes inimici mei; convertantur, et erubescant valde velociter.

Ah, Seigneur, ne me punis pas dans ta colère et ne me châtie dans ta fureur ! Seigneur, sois clément envers moi, car je suis faible ; guéris-moi, Seigneur, car mes os sont terrifiés, et mon âme est tout à fait terrifiée. Ah, toi Seigneur, combien de temps ! Tourne-toi, Seigneur, et sauve mon âme ; sauve-moi pour ton bien ! Car dans la mort on ne souvient pas de toi ; qui dans l'enfer te remercierait ? Je suis si las de mes gémissements, je rince mon lit toute la nuit et avec mes larmes je baigne ma couche. Mon corps est voué à l'affliction et est devenu vieux ; car je commence à être partout effrayé. Écartez-vous de moi, tous les malfaisants ; car le Seigneur entend mes pleurs, le Seigneur entend mon imploration, le Seigneur prend ma prière. Cela doit détruire tous mes ennemis et les effrayer complètement, qu'ils soient soudain retournés et effrayés.
