Psalmus 129

	Psalmus CXXIX (Allioli IV, p.368-369) Canticum graduum.
1	De profundis clamavi ad te Domine :
2	Domine exaudi vocem meam. Fiant aures tue intendentes, in vocem deprecationis mee.
3	Si iniquitates observaveris Domine : Domine quis sustinebit.
4	Quia apud te propitiatio est : et propter legem tuam sustinui te Domine. Sustinui anima mea in verbo eius :
5	speravit anima mea in domino.
6	A custodia matutina usque ad noctem : sperat Israel in Domino.
7	Quia apud Dominum misericordia : et copiosa apud eum redemptio.
8	Et ipse redimet Israel, ex omnibus iniquitatibus eius.
