Text and translations

Latin text

118:78 Confundantur superbi quia injuste iniquitatem fecerunt in me, ego autem exercebor
in mandatis tuis.

118:80 Fiat cor meum immaculatum in justificationibus tuis ut non confundar.

Hungarian translation

Szégyenűljenek meg a kevélyek, mert igaztalanúl gonoszságot cselekedtek rajtam; én pedig parancsaidban gyakorlom magamat.

Legyen szívem szeplőtelen a te igazságaidban, hogy meg ne szégyenűljek.

English translation

119:78 Let the proud be ashamed, because they have done unjustly towards me, but I will be employed in thy commandments.

119:80 Let my heart be undefiled in thy justifications, that I may not be confounded.
