1 I will praise you, LORD, with all my heart; before the "gods" I will sing your praise.2 I will bow down toward your holy temple and will praise your name for your unfailing love and your faithfulness, for you have so exalted your solemn decree that it surpasses your fame.3 When I called, you answered me; you greatly emboldened me.4 May all the kings of the earth praise you, LORD, when they hear what you have decreed.5 May they sing of the ways of the LORD, for the glory of the LORD is great.6 Though the LORD is exalted, he looks kindly on the lowly; though lofty, he sees them from afar.7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life. You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes; with your right hand you save me.8 The LORD will vindicate me; your love, LORD, endures forever — do not abandon the works of your hands.
1 In finem, psalmus David. [Domine, probasti me, et cognovisti me ;2 tu cognovisti sessionem meam et resurrectionem meam.3 Intellexisti cogitationes meas de longe ;semitam meam et funiculum meum investigasti :4 et omnes vias meas prvidisti,quia non est sermo in lingua mea.5 Ecce, Domine, tu cognovisti omnia,novissima et antiqua.Tu formasti me, et posuisti super me manum tuam.6 Mirabilis facta est scientia tua ex me ;confortata est, et non potero ad eam.7 Quo ibo a spiritu tuo ?et quo a facie tua fugiam ?8 Si ascendero in clum, tu illic es ;si descendero in infernum, ades.9 Si sumpsero pennas meas diluculo,et habitavero in extremis maris,10 etenim illuc manus tua deducet me,et tenebit me dextera tua.11 Et dixi : Forsitan tenebr conculcabunt me ;et nox illuminatio mea in deliciis meis.12 Quia tenebr non obscurabuntur a te,et nox sicut dies illuminabitur :sicut tenebr ejus, ita et lumen ejus.13 Quia tu possedisti renes meos ;suscepisti me de utero matris me.14 Confitebor tibi, quia terribiliter magnificatus es ;mirabilia opera tua, et anima mea cognoscit nimis.15 Non est occultatum os meum a te, quod fecisti in occulto ;et substantia mea in inferioribus terr.16 Imperfectum meum viderunt oculi tui,et in libro tuo omnes scribentur.Dies formabuntur, et nemo in eis.17 Mihi autem nimis honorificati sunt amici tui, Deus ;nimis confortatus est principatus eorum.18 Dinumerabo eos, et super arenam multiplicabuntur.Exsurrexi, et adhuc sum tecum.19 Si occideris, Deus, peccatores,viri sanguinum, declinate a me :20 quia dicitis in cogitatione :Accipient in vanitate civitates tuas.21 Nonne qui oderunt te, Domine, oderam,et super inimicos tuos tabescebam ?22 Perfecto odio oderam illos,et inimici facti sunt mihi.23 Proba me, Deus, et scito cor meum ;interroga me, et cognosce semitas meas.24 Et vide si via iniquitatis in me est,et deduc me in via terna.]
