Alleluia. | Alleluja. | |
10 I have believed, therefore have I spoken; but I have been humbled exceedingly. | 10 Credidi, propter quod locutus sum; ego autem humiliatus sum nimis. | 1 I trusted, even when most I bewailed my unhappy lot; |
11 I said in my excess: Every man is a liar. | 11 Ego dixi in excessu meo: Omnis homo mendax. | 2 bewildered, I said, Man’s faith is false; |
12 What shall I render to the Lord, for all the things that he hath rendered to me? | 12 Quid retribuam Domino pro omnibus quæ retribuit mihi? | 3 but the Lord’s mercies have never failed me; what return shall I make to him? |
13 I will take the chalice of salvation; and I will call upon the name of the Lord. | 13 Calicem salutaris accipiam, et nomen Domini invocabo. | 4 I will take the cup that is pledge of my deliverance, and invoke the name of the Lord upon it; |
14 I will pay my vows to the Lord before all his people: | 14 Vota mea Domino reddam coram omni populo ejus. | 5 I will pay the Lord my vows in the presence of all his people. |
15 precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. | 15 Pretiosa in conspectu Domini mors sanctorum ejus. | 6 Dear in the Lord’s sight is the death of those who love him; |
16 O Lord, for I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds: | 16 O Domine, quia ego servus tuus; ego servus tuus, et filius ancillæ tuæ. Dirupisti vincula mea: | 7 and am not I, Lord, thy servant, born of thy own handmaid? Thou hast broken the chains that bound me; |
17 I will sacrifice to thee the sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of the Lord. | 17 tibi sacrificabo hostiam laudis, et nomen Domini invocabo. | 8 I will sacrifice in thy honour, and call on the name of the Lord. |
18 I will pay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people: | 18 Vota mea Domino reddam in conspectu omnis populi ejus; | 9 Before a throng of worshippers I will pay the Lord my vows, |
19 in the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. | 19 in atriis domus Domini, in medio tui, Jerusalem. | 10 here in the courts of the Lord’s house, here, Jerusalem, in thy heart. |
