§ The Book of Psalms 129

1 Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord:

1 De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine;

2 Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

2 Domine, exaudi vocem meam. Fiant aures tuæ intendentes in vocem deprecationis meæ.

3 If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.

3 Si iniquitates observaveris, Domine, Domine, quis sustinebit?

4 For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word:

4 Quia apud te propitiatio est; et propter legem tuam sustinui te, Domine. Sustinuit anima mea in verbo ejus:

5 my soul hath hoped in the Lord.

5 speravit anima mea in Domino.

6 From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.

6 A custodia matutina usque ad noctem, speret Israël in Domino.

7 Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.

7 Quia apud Dominum misericordia, et copiosa apud eum redemptio.
