Text and translations

Latin text Aestimatus sum cum descendentibus in lacum, factus sum sicut homo sine adjutorio, inter mortuos liber. Versus: Posuerunt me in lacu inferiori, in tenebrosis et in umbra mortis. Factus sum sicut homo sine adjutorio, inter mortuos liber.

English translation I am counted with them that go down into the pit: I am as a man that hath no strength: free among the dead. Verse: Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in darkness, in the deeps. I am as a man that hath no strength: free among the dead. Translation by Paul Pascal
