Original text and translations
Latin text
Taedet animam meam vitae meae,
dimittam adversum me eloquium meum,
loquar in amaritudine animae meae.
Dicam Deo: noli me condemnare.
(Job 10;1-2a)
English translation
My soul is weary of my life,
I will let go my speech against myself,
I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.
I will say to God: Do not condemn me.
Hungarian translation
Megúnta lelkem életemet,
megeresztem ellenem beszédemet,
szólok lelkem keserűségében.
Mondom az Istennek: Ne kárhoztass el engem!
Spanish translation
Está mi alma hastiada de mi vida;
Daré libre curso a mi queja,
Hablaré con amargura de mi alma.
Diré a Dios: No me condenes.
German translation
Meine Seele verdreußt mein Leben;
ich will meine Klage bei mir gehen lassen
und reden von Betrübnis meiner Seele
und zu Gott sagen: Verdamme mich nicht.
