Psalms 130

DOUAI-RHEIMS	BIBBIA TINTORI
1 Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.	1 (Salmo graduale. Di David.). Signore, non s'è insuperbito il mio cuore, e i miei sguardi non sono alteri. Nè ho aspirato a grandezze, nè a cose maravigliose oltre le mie forze.
2 Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.	2 Sì: ho sentito umilmente di me, non ho esaltato me stesso. Come un bambino divezzato in seno alla madre così sia trattata l'anima mia.
3 The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.	3 Israele speri nel Signore ora e sempre.
4 The Lord who is just will cut the necks of sinners:
5 let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Sion.
6 Let them be as grass on the tops of houses: which withered before it be plucked up:
7 Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand: nor he that gathereth sheaves his bosom.
8 And they that have passed by have not said: The blessing of the Lord be upon you: we have blessed you in the name of the Lord.
