1 ipsi David
Benedic anima mea Domino
Domine Deus meus magnificatus es vehementer
confessionem et decorem induisti
2 amictus lumine sicut vestimento extendens caelum sicut pellem
3 qui tegis in aquis superiora eius
qui ponis nubem ascensum tuum
qui ambulas super pinnas ventorum
4 qui facis angelos tuos spiritus
et ministros tuos ignem urentem
5 qui fundasti terram super stabilitatem suam
non inclinabitur in saeculum saeculi
6 abyssus sicut vestimentum amictus eius
super montes stabunt aquae
7 ab increpatione tua fugient a voce tonitrui tui formidabunt
8 ascendunt montes et descendunt campi
in locum quem fundasti eis
9 terminum posuisti quem non transgredientur
neque convertentur operire terram
10 qui emittis fontes in convallibus
inter medium montium pertransibunt aquae
11 potabunt omnes bestiae agri expectabunt onagri in siti sua
12 super ea volucres caeli habitabunt
de medio petrarum dabunt vocem
13 rigans montes de superioribus suis
de fructu operum tuorum satiabitur terra
14 producens faenum iumentis et herbam servituti hominum
ut educas panem de terra
15 et vinum laetificat cor hominis
ut exhilaret faciem in oleo
et panis cor hominis confirmat
16 saturabuntur ligna campi et cedri Libani quas plantavit
17 illic passeres nidificabunt erodii domus dux est eorum
18 montes excelsi cervis petra refugium erinaciis
19 fecit lunam in tempora sol cognovit occasum suum
20 posuisti tenebras et facta est nox
in ipsa pertransibunt omnes bestiae silvae
21 catuli leonum rugientes ut rapiant et quaerant a Deo escam sibi
22 ortus est sol et congregati sunt et in cubilibus suis conlocabuntur
23 exibit homo ad opus suum
et ad operationem suam usque ad vesperum
24 quam magnificata sunt opera tua Domine
omnia in sapientia fecisti impleta est terra possessione tua
25 hoc mare magnum et spatiosum ※manibus:
illic reptilia quorum non est numerus animalia pusilla cum magnis
26 illic naves pertransibunt
draco iste quem formasti ad inludendum ei
27 omnia a te expectant ut des illis escam in tempore
28 dante te illis colligent
aperiente te manum tuam omnia implebuntur bonitate
29 avertente autem te faciem turbabuntur
auferes spiritum eorum et deficient et in pulverem suum revertentur
30 emittes spiritum tuum et creabuntur
et renovabis faciem terrae
31 sit gloria Domini in saeculum
laetabitur Dominus in operibus suis
32 qui respicit terram et facit eam tremere
qui tangit montes et fumigant
33 cantabo Domino in vita mea psallam Deo meo quamdiu sum
34 iucundum sit ei eloquium meum
ego vero delectabor in Domino
35 deficiant peccatores a terra et iniqui ita ut non sint
benedic anima mea Domino
A Psalm of David.
1 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;
4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 The LORD executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed.
7 He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel.
8 The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.
9 He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever.
10 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
13 Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust.
15 As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth.
16 For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more.
17 But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children’s children;
18 To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them.
19 The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all.
20 Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
21 Bless ye the LORD, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure.
22 Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.
