Quia delectasti me, Domine, in factura tua; et in operibus manuum tuarum exsultabo.

For thou hast given me, O Lord, a delight in thy doings: and in the works of thy hands I shall rejoice.

Vir insipiens non cognoscet, et stultus non intelliget hæc.

The senseless man shall not know: nor will the fool understand these things.

Cum exorti fuerint peccatores sicut fœnum, et apparuerint omnes qui operantur iniquitatem, ut intereant in sæculum sæculi:

When the wicked shall spring up as grass: and all the workers of iniquity shall appear: That they may perish for ever and ever:

Cum exorior es peccatores sicut foeno, et omni qui operor iniquitate appare, ut interi in saeculo de saeculo:

tu autem Altissimus in æternum, Domine.

But thou, O Lord, art most high for evermore.

Te autem Altissimo in aeterno, Domino.

Quoniam ecce inimici tui, Domine, quoniam ecce inimici tui peribunt; et dispergentur omnes qui operantur iniquitatem.

For behold thy enemies, O Lord, for behold thy enemies shall perish: and all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

Quia ecce inimicos tuo, Domino, quia ecce inimicos tuo peri; et omni qui operor iniquitate disperge.

Et exaltabitur sicut unicornis cornu meum, et senectus mea in misericordia uberi.

But my horn shall be exalted like that of the unicorn: and my old age in plentiful mercy.

Et exalta sicut unicorno cornu meo, et senectute meo in misericordia ubere.

Et despexit oculus meus inimicos meos, et in insurgentibus in me malignantibus audiet auris mea.

My eye also hath looked down upon my enemies: and my ear shall hear of the downfall of the malignant that rise up against me.

Justus ut palma florebit; sicut cedrus Libani multiplicabitur.

Adhuc multiplicabuntur in senecta uberi, et bene patientes erunt:

They shall still increase in a fruitful old age: and shall be well treated,

ut annuntient quoniam rectus Dominus Deus noster, et non est iniquitas in eo.

That they may shew, That the Lord our God is righteous, and there is no iniquity in him.
