     Amal du·berad nech hi ceist do Dauid: “Húare is móir sléb fírinne Dǽ, cid ara fodmai-siu, ⟨a⟩ Dauid, didiu a ndu imnedaib ⁊ frithoircnib fo·daimi?

     As though someone had put as a question to David: “Because God’s righteousness is as great as a mountain, why then, David, dost thou suffer what of afflictions and injuries thou sufferest? For thou art righteous.” He solves that then when he says “iudicia Domini abyssus multa”, i.e. there are judgments of God incomprehensible like an abyss and like a depth. That is what causes the complaint why the righteous folk endure tribulations, and why sinners are in prosperity.

The gender and declension class are unclear in Old Irish. It was possibly a masculine o-stem as in Latin, while in the later language it is a feminine ī-stem.

The only attested inflected form in Old Irish is accusative plural abissiu, which points to a masculine io-stem, but then the nominative singular would be *abisse.
