Latin text

2 Deus, in adjutorium meum intende: Domine, ad adjuvandum me festina:
3 confundantur et revereantur inimici mei, qui quaerunt animam meam.
4 Avertantur retrorsum et erubescant: qui cogitant mihi mala.

English translation

2 Incline unto my aid, O God: O Lord, make haste to help me:
3 let my enemies be confounded and ashamed, who seek my soul.
4 Let them be turned backward and blush for shame, who desire evils to me.
