Original text and translations

Latin text Peccavi super numerum arenae maris, multiplicata sunt peccata mea, Domine, multiplicatae sunt iniquitates meae! Et non sum dignus videre altitudinem caeli prae multitudine iniquitatis meae. quoniam irritavi iram tuam et malum coram te feci.

English translation For my sins number more than the grains of sand in the sea, my sins I have multiplied, O Lord, my sins I have multiplied! I am not worthy to gaze upon heaven above because of the multitude of my sins. for I have provoked Thy wrath and done evil in Thy sight.
