2. O Lord, in your anger do not reprove; nor punish me in your fury.

3. Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I have no strength left. O Lord, heal me, for my bones are in torment.

4. My soul also is greatly troubled. How long, O Lord, how long? How long will you be?

5. Come back to me, O Lord, save my life; rescue me for the sake of your love.

6. For no one remembers you in the grave; who will praise you in the world of the dead?

7. I am weary with moaning; I weep every night, drenching my bed with tears.

8. My eyes have grown dim from troubles; I have weakened because of my foes.

9. Away from me, you evildoers, for the Lord has heard my plaintive voice.

10. The Lord has heard my plea; the Lord will grant all that I pray for.

11. Let my enemies fall back in shame, all of a sudden - the whole bunch of them!





“Menosprezai vossas tentações e não vos demoreis nelas. Imaginai estar na presença de Jesus. O crucificado se lança em vossos braços e mora no vosso coração. Beijai-Lhe a chaga do lado, dizendo: ‘Aqui está minha esperança; a fonte viva da minha felicidade. Seguro-vos, ó Jesus, e não me aparto de vós, até que me tenhais posto a salvo’”. São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
