Have mercy on me, God
Miserere mei, Deus

According to your great mercy
Secundum magnam misericordiam tuam

And according to the multitude of thy mercies
Et secundum multitudinem miserationum tuarum

Take away my iniquity
Dele iniquitatem meam

Wash me further from my iniquity
Amplius lava me ab iniquitate mea

And cleanse me from my sin
Et a peccato meo munda me

For I know my iniquity
Quoniam iniquitatem meam ego cognosco

And my sin is always against me
Et peccatum meum contra me est semper

I have sinned against you alone, and I have done evil before you
Tibi soli peccavi, et malum coram te feci

That you may be justified in your words and overcome when you are judged
Ut justificeris in sermonibus tuis et vincas cum judicaris

Behold, I was conceived in iniquities
Ecce enim in iniquitatibus conceptus sum

And in sins my mother conceived me
Et in peccatis concepit me mater mea

Behold, you have loved the truth
Ecce enim veritatem dilexisti

You have revealed to me the uncertain and hidden things of your wisdom
Incerta et occulta sapientiae tuae manifestasti mihi

Sprinkle me with hyssop and I will be clean
Asperges me hysopo et mundabor

You will wash me and I will be white over the snow
Lavabis me et super nivem dealbabor

You will give my audience joy and happiness
Auditui meo dabis gaudium et laetitiam

And the humbled bones will rejoice
Et exsultabunt ossa humiliata

Turn away your face from my sins
Averte faciem tuam a peccatis meis

And blot out all my iniquities
Et omnes iniquitates meas dele

Create a clean heart in me, God
Cor mundum crea in me, Deus

And renew the right spirit in my bowels
Et spiritum rectum innova in visceribus meis

Do not cast me out of your sight
Ne proiicias me a facie tua

And do not take your holy spirit from me
Et spiritum sanctum tuum ne auferas a me

Give me the joy of your salvation
Redde mihi laetitiam salutaris tuiet

And strengthen me with the main spirit
Et spiritu principali confirma me

I will teach you your wicked ways
Docebo iniquos vias tuas

And the wicked shall turn unto thee
Et impii ad te convertentur

Deliver me from bloodshed, O God, the God of my salvation
Libera me de sanguinibus, Deus, Deus salutis meae et

My tongue will exult in your righteousness
Exsultabit lingua mea justitiam tuam

Lord, you will open my lips
Domine, labia mea aperies

And my mouth shall declare thy praise
Et os meum annuntiabit laudem tuam

For if you had wanted, I would certainly have given the sacrifice
Quoniam si voluisses sacrificium dedissem utique

You will not be pleased with the Holocaust
Holocaustis non delectaberis

A sacrifice offered to God by the spirit
Sacrificium Deo spiritus contribulatus

A broken and humbled heart, O God, you will not despise
Cor contritum et humiliatum, Deus, non despicies

Do kindly, Lord, in your good will to Zion
Benigne fac, Domine, in bona voluntate tua Sion

That the walls of Jerusalem may be built
Ut aedificentur muri Ierusalem

Then you will accept the sacrifice of righteousness, the offerings and burnt offerings
Tunc acceptabis sacrificium justitiae, oblationes et holocausta

Then they will lay the calves on your altar
Tunc imponent super altare tuum vitulos
