Domine, exaudi. The psalmist in tribulation calleth upon God for his delivery. The seventh penitential psalm.

 1 Hear, O Lord, my prayer: give ear to my supplication in thy truth: hear me in thy justice.
Psalmus David, quando persequebatur eum Absalom, filius ejus. Domine, exaudi orationem meam; auribus percipe obsecrationem meam in veritate tua; exaudi me in tua justitia.

 2 And enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight no man living shall be justified.
Et non intres in judicium cum servo tuo, quia non justificabitur in conspectu tuo omnis vivens.

 3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul: he hath brought down my life to the earth. He hath made me to dwell in darkness as those that have been dead of old:
Quia persecutus est inimicus animam meam, humiliavit in terra vitam meam; collocavit me in obscuris, sicut mortuos saeculi.

 4 And my spirit is in anguish within me: my heart within me is troubled.
Et anxiatus est super me spiritus meus; in me turbatum est cor meum.

 5 I remembered the days of old, I meditated on all thy works: I meditated upon the works of thy hands.
Memor fui dierum antiquorum : meditatus sum in omnibus operibus tuis, in factis manuum tuarum meditabar.

 6 I stretched forth my hands to thee: my soul is as earth without water unto thee.
Expandi manus meas ad te; anima mea sicut terra sine aqua tibi.

 7 Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit hath fainted away. Turn not away thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
Velociter exaudi me, Domine; defecit spiritus meus. Non avertas faciem tuam a me, et similis ero descendentibus in lacum.

 8 Cause me to hear thy mercy in the morning; for in thee have I hoped. Make the way known to me, wherein I should walk: for I have lifted up my soul to thee.
Auditam fac mihi mane misericordiam tuam, quia in te speravi. Notam fac mihi viam in qua ambulem, quia ad te levavi animam meam.

 9 Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord, to thee have I fled:
Eripe me de inimicis meis, Domine; ad te confugi.

 10 Teach me to do thy will, for thou art my God. Thy good spirit shall lead me into the right land:
Doce me facere voluntatem tuam, quia Deus meus es tu. Spiritus tuus bonus deducet me in terram rectam.

 11 For thy name's sake, O Lord, thou wilt quicken me in thy justice. Thou wilt bring my soul out of trouble:
Propter nomen tuum, Domine, vivificabis me; in aequitate tua, educes de tribulatione animam meam;

 12 And in thy mercy thou wilt destroy my enemies. And thou wilt cut off all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.
et in misericordia tua disperdes inimicos meos, et perdes omnes qui tribulant animam meam, quoniam ego servus tuus sum.
