Translation

You will bring out my soul from trouble:/ and in your mercy you will destroy my enemies./ And you will destroy all who afflict my soul:/ because I am your servant./


Psalm 143: 5-6
Lord bow down your heavens and descend
Flash lightening

BLESSED BE/ the lord my god:/ who teaches my/ hands to battle:/ and my fingers to war./ My mercy and my re/fuge: my support and my deliverer./ My protector/ and I have hoped in him: who/ subdued my people/ under me./ Lord what is man that you are made known to him:/ or the son of man that you consider him./ Man is made like vanity:/ his days pass away like a shadow./

Transcription

Educes de tribulatione anima[m] mea[m]: / et in mis[eri]c[or]dia tua disperdes inimicos meos. / Et p[er]des om[ne]s q[u]i tribulant anima[m] mea[m]: / q[uonia]m ego servus tuus sum. /
D[omi]ne inclina celos tuos et descende
Fulg[ur]a coruscatione[m]

BENEDICTUS / d[omi]n[u]s deus meus: / q[u]i docet manus / meas ad pr[a]eliu[m]: / et digitos meos ad bellu[m]. / Mis[eri]c[or]dia mea et re/fugiu[m] meu[m]: susceptor / m[eu]s et lib[er]ator m[eu]s. / Protector meus / et in ipso speravi: q[u]i / subdit pop[u]l[u]m meu[m] / sub me. / D[omi]ne quid est homo q[u]ia innotuisti ei: / aut filius hominis q[u]ia reputas eum. / Homo vanitati similis factus est: / dies ei[us] sicut umbra pretereunt. /
