Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation: But deliver us from evil. Amen.

Panem nostrum quotidiánum da nobis hódie: et dimítte nobis débita nostra, sicut et nos dimíttimus debitóribus nostris: et ne nos indúcas in tentatiónem: sed líbera nos a malo. Amen.

39:3 And he set my feet upon a rock, * and directed my steps.
39:4 And he put a new canticle into my mouth, * a song to our God.
39:4 Many shall see, and shall fear: * and they shall hope in the Lord.
39:5 Blessed is the man whose trust is in the name of the Lord; * and who hath not had regard to vanities, and lying follies.
39:6 Thou hast multiplied thy wonderful works, O Lord my God: * and in thy thoughts there is no one like to thee.
39:6 I have declared and I have spoken * they are multiplied above number.
39:7 Sacrifice and oblation thou didst not desire; * but thou hast pierced ears for me.
39:7 Burnt offering and sin offering thou didst not require: * then said I, Behold I come.
39:8 In the head of the book it is written of me that I should do thy will: * O my God, I have desired it, and thy law in the midst of my heart.

39:11 I have not concealed thy mercy and thy truth * from a great council.
39:12 Withhold not thou, O Lord, thy tender mercies from me: * thy mercy and thy truth have always upheld me.
39:13 For evils without number have surrounded me; * my iniquities have overtaken me, and I was not able to see.
39:13 They are multiplied above the hairs of my head: * and my heart hath forsaken me.
39:14 Be pleased, O Lord to deliver me: * look down, O Lord, to help me.
39:10 Annuntiávi justítiam tuam in ecclésia magna, * ecce, lábia mea non prohibébo: Dómine, tu scisti.

39:11 Non abscóndi misericórdiam tuam et veritátem tuam * a concílio multo.
39:12 Tu autem, Dómine, ne longe fácias miseratiónes tuas a me: * misericórdia tua et véritas tua semper suscepérunt me.
39:13 Quóniam circumdedérunt me mala, quorum non est númerus: * comprehendérunt me iniquitátes meæ, et non pótui ut vidérem.
39:13 Multiplicátæ sunt super capíllos cápitis mei: * et cor meum derelíquit me.
39:14 Compláceat tibi, Dómine, ut éruas me: * Dómine, ad adjuvándum me réspice.
