KJV

et propitiaberis populo tuo qui peccavit tibi, et omnibus iniquitatibus eorum quibus prævaricati sunt in te : et dabis misericordiam coram eis qui eos captivos habuerint, ut misereantur eis.

Vulgate

καὶ ἵλεως ἔσῃ ταῖς ἀδικίαις αὐτῶν αἷς ἥμαρτόν σοι καὶ κατὰ πάντα τὰ ἀθετήματα αὐτῶν ἃ ἠθέτησάν σοι, καὶ δώσεις αὐτοὺς εἰς οἰκτειρμοὺς ἐνώπιον αἰχμαλωτευόντων αὐτοὺς καὶ οἰκτειρήσουσιν εἰς αὐτούς·

LXX

and forgive thy people who have sinned against thee, and all their transgressions wherein they have transgressed against thee; and give them compassion before those who carried them captive, that they may have compassion on them
