The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Obliviscatur ejus misericordia ; dulcedo illius vermes : non sit in recordatione, sed conteratur quasi lignum infructuosum.
Septuagint (Swete)
εἶτ᾽ ἀνεμνήσθη αὐτοῦ ἡ ἁμαρτία· ὥσπερ δὲ ὁμίχλη δρόσου ἀφανὴς ἐγένετο· ἀποδοθείη δὲ αὐτῷ ἃ ἔπραξεν, συντριβείη δὲ πᾶς ἄδικος ἴσα ξύλῳ ἀνιάτῳ.
Hebrew (WLC)
יִשְׁכָּ֘חֵ֤הוּ רֶ֨חֶם מְתָ֘ק֤וֹ רִמָּ֗ה ע֥וֹד לֹֽא יִזָּכֵ֑ר וַתִּשָּׁבֵ֖ר כָּעֵ֣ץ עַוְלָֽה

Haydock's commentary

Sweetness. These will inherit him; (Haydock) for here all his pleasures will terminate. (Calmet)
