Psalms 130

DOUAI-RHEIMS	VULGATA
1 Often have they fought against me from my youth, let Israel now say.	1 Canticum graduum David. Domine, non est exaltatum cor meum, neque elati sunt oculi mei, neque ambulavi in magnis, neque in mirabilibus super me.
2 Often have they fought against me from my youth: but they could not prevail over me.	2 Si non humiliter sentiebam, sed exaltavi animam meam : sicut ablactatus est super matre sua, ita retributio in anima mea.
3 The wicked have wrought upon my back: they have lengthened their iniquity.	3 Speret Israël in Domino, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
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.
