Psalms 87:6

The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.

inter mortuos liber ; sicut vulnerati dormientes in sepulchris, quorum non es memor amplius, et ipsi de manu tua repulsi sunt.

Vulgate

ἐν νεκροῖς ἐλεύθερος· ὡσεὶ τραυματίαι ἐρριμμένοι καθεύδοντες ἐν τάφῳ, ὧν οὐκ ἐμνήσθης ἔτι, καὶ αὐτοὶ ἐκ τῆς χειρός σου ἀπώσθησαν·

LXX

Jehovah will count, when he writeth up the peoples, This one was born there. [Selah
