Latin text Judica me, Deus, et discerne causam meam de gente non sancta: ab homine iniquo et doloroso eripe me: quia tu es Deus meus, et fortitudo mea. Ps: Emitte lucem tuam, et veritatem tuam: ipsa me deduxerunt, et adduxerunt in montem sanctum tuum, et in tabernacula tua.

English translation Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation that is not holy: deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man: for Thou art my God and my strength. Ps: Send forth Thy light, and Thy truth: they have conducted me, and brought me unto Thy holy hill, and into thy tabernacles.
