Original text and translations

Latin text

Exsúrge, Dómine, non præváleat homo:

judicéntur gentes in conspéctu tuo.

Versus

In converténdo inimícum meum retrórsum,

infirmabúntur, et períbunt a fácie tua.

English translation

Arise O Lord, and let not man be strengthened;

let the Gentiles be judged in Thy sight.

Versus

When the enemy shall be turned back,

they shall be weakened and perish before Thy face.

French translation

Levez-vous, Seigneur; que l'homme ne prévale pas:

que les nations soient jugées en votre présence.

Versus

Lorsque mon ennemi sera mis en fuite,

ils tomberont dans l'abattement, et périront devant votre face.
