Liber Psalmorum

Canticum graduum. Nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis, dicat nunc Israël,

A gradual canticle. If it had not been that the Lord was with us, let Israel now say:

Cantico de graduos. Nisi quia Domino es in nos, Israële nunc que dic,

nisi quia Dominus erat in nobis: cum exsurgerent homines in nos,

If it had not been that the Lord was with us, When men rose up against us,

Nisi quia Domino es in nos: cum homines ex(s)urga in nos,

forte vivos deglutissent nos; cum irasceretur furor eorum in nos,

Perhaps they had swallowed us up alive. When their fury was enkindled against us,

Forte vivo deglua nos; cum furore de illos irasce in nos,

forsitan aqua absorbuisset nos;

Perhaps the waters had swallowed us up.

Forsan aqua absorbe nos;

torrentem pertransivit anima nostra; forsitan pertransisset anima nostra aquam intolerabilem.

Our soul hath passed through a torrent: perhaps our soul had passed through a water insupportable.

Anima nostro pertransi torrente; forsan anima nostro pertransi aqua intolerabile.

Benedictus Dominus, qui non dedit nos in captionem dentibus eorum.

Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us to be a prey to their teeth.

Benedicto Domino, qui non da nos in captione dentes de illos.

Anima nostra sicut passer erepta est de laqueo venantium; laqueus contritus est, et nos liberati sumus.

Our soul hath been delivered as a sparrow out of the snare of the fowlers. The snare is broken, and we are delivered.

Anima nostro sicut passo eripe es de laqueo vena; laqueo contre es, et nos libera es.

Adjutorium nostrum in nomine Domini, qui fecit cælum et terram.

Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Adiutorio nostro in nomine de Domino, qui fac caelo et terra.
