Let all their wickedness come before thee; and do unto them, as thou hast done unto me for all my transgressions: for my sighs are many, and my heart is faint.

Laß alle ihre Bosheit vor dich kommen und richte sie zu, wie du mich um aller meiner Missetat willen zugerichtet hast; denn meines Seufzens ist viel, und mein Herz ist betrübt.
Entre delante de ti toda su maldad, Y haz con ellos como hiciste conmigo por todas mis rebeliones: Porque muchos son mis suspiros, y mi corazón está doloroso.
Que toda su maldad llegue a tu presencia; trátalos como me has tratado por todas mis rebeliones. Porque son muchos mis gemidos y mi corazón desfallece».
Que toute leur méchanceté vienne devant toi, Et traite-les comme tu m'as traitée, A cause de toutes mes transgressions! Car mes soupirs sont nombreux, et mon coeur est souffrant.
Tutte la lor malvagità venga nel tuo cospetto, E fa’ loro come hai fatto a me per tutti i miei misfatti; Perciocchè i miei sospiri son molti, E il mio cuore è addolorato
Venha toda a sua maldade diante de ti, e faze-lhes como me fizeste a mim por causa de todas as minhas transgressões; porque os meus suspiros são muitos, e o meu coração está desfalecido.
願他們的惡行都呈現在你面前; 你怎樣因我一切的罪過待我, 求你也照樣待他們; 因我嘆息甚多,心中發昏。
