Feci iudícium et iustítiam; * non tradas me calumniántibus me.

My eyes have fainted after thy salvation, * and for the word of thy justice.
Fac cum servo tuo secúndum misericórdiam tuam, * et iustificatiónes tuas doce me.

It is time, O Lord, to do: * they have dissipated thy law.
Ideo diléxi præcépta tua * super aurum et obrýzum.
Therefore have I loved thy commandments * above gold and the topaz.
Proptérea ad ómnia mandáta tua dirigébar, * omnem viam mendácii ódio hábui.
Therefore was I directed to all thy commandments: * I have hated all unjust ways.
