Translation

See my lowliness and my labour:/ and forgive all my sins./ Have regard from my enemies because they are multiplied:/ and they have hated me with unjust hatred:/ Guard my soul and deliver me:/ I shall not be ashamed for I have hoped in you. The innocent and virtuous have clung to me:/ because I have supported you./ Deliver israhel god: from all its tribulations./


Psalm 25
I will wash my hands among the innocent

JUDGE ME LORD/ because I have walked in my innocence:/ and in the lord/ hoping that I shall not be weakened./ Prove me lord and try me:/ burns my reins and my heart. Because your mercy is before/ my eyes: and I am pleased very much/ in your truth./ I have not sat with the council/ of vanity: and with the conductors in unjust things I will not/ enter./

Transcription

Vide humilitatem meam et labore[m] meu[m]: / et dimitte universa delicta mea. / Respice inimicos meos q[uonia]m multiplicati s[un]t: / et odio iniquo oderunt me: / Custodi anima[m] meam et erue me: / non erubescam q[uonia]m speravi in te. / Innocentes et recti adh[a]eserunt mi[hi]: / quia sustinui te. / Lib[er]a d[eu]s is[rahe]l: ex om[n]ib[us] tribulationib[us] suis. /
Lavabo int[er] innocentes man[us] meas
IVDICA ME D[OMI]NE / q[uonia]m ego ininnocentia mea / ingressus sum: et in d[omi]no / sperans non infirmabor. / Proba me d[omi]ne e te[m]pta me: / ure renes meos et cor meu[m]. Q[uonia]m mis[eri]c[or]dia tua ante / oculos meos est: et co[n]placui / inveritate tua. / Non sedi cu[m] concilio vani/tatis: et cu[m] iniq[ua] gerentib[us] n[on] / introibo. /
