| Exaudi orationem meam, Domine, et deprecationem meam. Auribus percipe lacrimas meas. Ne sileas, ne sileas. | Hear my prayer, O Lord, and with Thine ears consider my calling: hold not Thy peace at my tears. |
| Quoniam advena ego sum apud te et peregrinus, sicut omnes patres mei. | For I am a stranger with Thee: and a sojourner, as all my fathers were. |
| Remitte mihi, prius quam abeam et amplius non ero. | O spare me a little that I may recover my strength: before I go hence and be no more seen. |
| Expectans expectavi Dominum, et intendit mihi. | I waited patiently for the Lord: and He inclined unto me, and heard my calling. |
| Et exaudivit preces meas; et exudit me da lacu miseriae, et de lato faecis. | He brought me also out of the horrible pit, out of the mire and clay: |
| Et statuit super petram pedes meos: et direxis gressus meos. | and set my feet upon the rock, and ordered my goings. |
| Et immisit in os meum canticum novrum, carmen Deo nostro. | And He hath put a new song in my mouth: even a thanksgiving unto our God. |
| Videbunt multi, videbunt et timabunt: et aperabunt in Domino. | Many shall see it and fear: and shall put their trust in the Lord. |
