1 alleluia
Confitemini Domino et invocate nomen eius
adnuntiate inter gentes opera eius
2 cantate ei et psallite ei narrate omnia mirabilia eius
3 laudamini in nomine sancto eius
laetetur cor quaerentium Dominum
4 quaerite Dominum et confirmamini quaerite faciem eius semper
5 mementote mirabilium eius quae fecit
prodigia eius et iudicia oris eius
6 semen Abraham servi eius filii Iacob electi eius
7 ipse Dominus Deus noster in universa terra iudicia eius
8 memor fuit in saeculum testamenti sui
verbi quod mandavit in mille generationes
9 quod disposuit ad Abraham
et iuramenti sui ad Isaac
10 et statuit illud Iacob in praeceptum
et Israhel in testamentum aeternum
11 dicens tibi dabo terram Chanaan funiculum hereditatis vestrae
12 cum essent numero breves
paucissimos et incolas eius
13 et pertransierunt de gente in gentem
et de regno ad populum alterum
14 non reliquit hominem nocere eis et corripuit pro eis reges
15 nolite tangere christos meos
et in prophetis meis nolite malignari
16 et vocavit famem super terram
omne firmamentum panis contrivit
17 misit ante eos virum in servum venundatus est Ioseph
18 humiliaverunt in conpedibus pedes eius
ferrum pertransiit anima eius
19 donec veniret verbum eius
eloquium Domini inflammavit eum
20 misit rex et solvit eum princeps populorum et dimisit eum
21 constituit eum dominum domus suae
et principem omnis possessionis suae
22 ut erudiret principes eius sicut semet ipsum
et senes eius prudentiam doceret
23 et intravit Israhel in Aegyptum
et Iacob accola fuit in terra Cham
24 et auxit populum eius vehementer
et firmavit eum super inimicos eius
25 convertit cor eorum ut odirent populum eius
ut dolum facerent in servos eius
26 misit Mosen servum suum Aaron quem elegit ipsum
27 posuit in eis verba signorum suorum
et prodigiorum in terra Cham
28 misit tenebras et obscuravit et non exacerbavit sermones suos
29 convertit aquas eorum in sanguinem et occidit pisces eorum
30 dedit terra eorum ranas
in penetrabilibus regum ipsorum
31 dixit et venit cynomia
et scinifes in omnibus finibus eorum
32 posuit pluvias eorum grandinem
ignem conburentem in terra ipsorum
33 et percussit vineas eorum et ficulneas eorum
et contrivit lignum finium eorum
34 dixit et venit lucusta et bruchus cuius non erat numerus
35 et comedit omne faenum in terra eorum
et comedit omnem fructum terrae eorum
36 et percussit omne primogenitum in terra eorum
primitias omnis laboris eorum
37 et eduxit eos in argento et auro
et non erat in tribubus eorum infirmus
38 laetata est Aegyptus in profectione eorum
quia incubuit timor eorum super eos
39 expandit nubem in protectionem eorum
et ignem ut luceret eis per noctem
40 petierunt et venit coturnix et panem caeli saturavit eos
41 disrupit petram et fluxerunt aquae abierunt in sicco flumina
42 quoniam memor fuit verbi sancti sui
quod habuit ad Abraham puerum suum
43 et eduxit populum suum in exultatione
÷et: electos suos in laetitia
44 et dedit illis regiones gentium et labores populorum possederunt
45 ut custodiant iustificationes eius et legem eius requirant
1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty.
2 Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.
6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.
7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.
8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.
9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills.
11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst.
12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, which sing among the branches.
13 He watereth the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
15 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man’s heart.
16 The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
17 Where the birds make their nests: as for the stork, the fir trees are her house.
18 The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies.
19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.
20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth .
21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their meat from God.
22 The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens.
23 Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening.
24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.
25 So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.
26 There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom thou hast made to play therein.
27 These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give them their meat in due season.
28 That thou givest them they gather: thou openest thine hand, they are filled with good.
29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.
30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of the earth.
31 The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.
32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.
33 I will sing unto the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.
35 Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.
