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