1 In finem. Psalmus David in rememorationem, quod salvum fecerit eum Dominus. 2 [Deus, in adjutorium meum intende; Domine, ad adjuvandum me festina. 3 Confundantur, et revereantur, qui quærunt animam meam. 4 Avertantur retrorsum, et erubescant, qui volunt mihi mala; avertantur statim erubescentes qui dicunt mihi: Euge, euge ! 5 Exsultent et lætentur in te omnes qui quærunt te; et dicant semper: Magnificetur Dominus, qui diligunt salutare tuum. 6 Ego vero egenus et pauper sum; Deus, adjuva me. Adjutor meus et liberator meus es tu; Domine, ne moreris.]
