Manus tuae Domine fecerunt me, et plasmaverunt me totum in circuitu: et sic repente praecipitas me? Memento, quaeso, quod sicut lutum feceris me, et in pulverem reduces me. Nonne sicut lac mulsisti me, et sicut caseum me coagulasti? Pelle et carnibus vestisti me : ossibus et nervis compegisti me. Vitam et, misericordiam tribuisti mihi, et visitatio tua custodivit spiritum meum.

Tes mains, Seigneur, m'ont fait et m'ont façonné en tournant tout autour ; et tout à coup tu me fais retomber ? Souviens-toi, je t'en prie, que tu m'as fait comme l'argile, et que tu réduiras en poussière. Ne m'as-tu pas trait comme du lait, et caillé comme du fromage ? De peau et de chair tu m'as revêtu : d'os et de nerfs tu m'as assemblé. Tu m'as accordé la vie et la miséricorde, et ton apparition a veillé sur mon esprit.
