| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Alleluia. Give glory to the Lord, and call upon his name: declare his deeds among the Gentiles. | Alleluia. Confitemini Domino, et invocate nomen eius; annuntiate inter gentes opera eius. |
| 2 | Sing to him, yea sing praises to him: relate all his wondrous works. | Cantate ei, et psallite ei; narrate omnia mirabilia eius. |
| 3 | Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord. | Laudamini in nomine sancto eius; laetetur cor quaerentium Dominum. |
| 4 | Seek ye the Lord, and be strengthened: seek his face evermore. | Quaerite Dominum, et confirmamini; quaerite faciem eius semper. |
| 5 | Remember his marvellous works which he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth. | Mementote mirabilium eius quae fecit; prodigia eius, et iudicia oris eius: |
| 6 | O ye seed of Abraham his servant; ye sons of Jacob his chosen. | semen Abraham servi eius; filii Iacob electi eius. |
| 7 | He is the Lord our God: his judgments are in all the earth. | Ipse Dominus Deus noster; in universa terra iudicia eius. |
| 8 | He hath remembered his covenant for ever: the word which he commanded to a thousand generations. | Memor fuit in saeculum testamenti sui; verbi quod mandavit in mille generationes: |
| 9 | Which he made to Abraham; and his oath to Isaac: | quod disposuit ad Abraham, et iuramenti sui ad Isaac: |
| 10 | And he appointed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting testament: | et statuit illud Iacob in praeceptum, et Israël in testamentum aeternum, |
| 11 | Saying: To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, the lot of your inheritance. | dicens: Tibi dabo terram Chanaan, funiculum haereditatis vestrae: |
| 12 | When they were but a small number: yea very few, and sojourners therein: | cum essent numero brevi, paucissimi, et incolae eius. |
| 13 | And they passed from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people. | Et pertransierunt de gente in gentem, et de regno ad populum alterum. |
| 14 | He suffered no man to hurt them: and he reproved kings for their sakes. | Non reliquit hominem nocere eis: et corripuit pro eis reges. |
| 15 | Touch ye not my anointed: and do no evil to my prophets. | Nolite tangere christos meos, et in prophetis meis nolite malignari. |
| 16 | And he called a famine upon the land: and he broke in pieces all the support of bread. | Et vocavit famem super terram, et omne firmamentum panis contrivit. |
| 17 | He sent a man before them: Joseph, who was sold for a slave. | Misit ante eos virum: in servum venundatus est, Ioseph. |
| 18 | They humbled his feet in fetters: the iron pierced his soul, | Humiliaverunt in compedibus pedes eius; ferrum pertransiit animam eius: |
| 19 | Until his word came. The word of the Lord inflamed him. | donec veniret verbum eius. Eloquium Domini inflammavit eum. |
| 20 | The king sent, and he released him: the ruler of the people, and he set him at liberty. | Misit rex, et solvit eum; princeps populorum, et dimisit eum. |
| 21 | He made him master of his house, and ruler of all his possession. | Constituit eum dominum domus suae, et principem omnis possessionis suae: |
| 22 | That he might instruct his princes as himself, and teach his ancients wisdom. | ut erudiret principes eius sicut semetipsum, et senes eius prudentiam doceret. |
| 23 | And Israel went into Egypt: and Jacob was a sojourner in the land of Cham. | Et intravit Israël in Aegyptum, et Iacob accola fuit in terra Cham. |
| 24 | And he increased his people exceedingly: and strengthened them over their enemies, | Et auxit populum suum vehementer, et firmavit eum super inimicos eius. |
| 25 | He turned their heart to hate his people: and to deal deceitfully with his servants. | Convertit cor eorum, ut odirent populum eius, et dolum facerent in servos eius. |
| 26 | He sent Moses his servant: Aaron the man whom he had chosen. | Misit Moysen servum suum; Aaron quem elegit ipsum. |
| 27 | He gave them power to shew his signs, and his wonders in the land of Cham. | Posuit in eis verba signorum suorum, et prodigiorum in terra Cham. |
| 28 | He sent darkness, and made it obscure: and grieved not his words. | Misit tenebras, et obscuravit; et non exacerbavit sermones suos. |
| 29 | He turned their waters into blood, and destroyed their fish. | Convertit aquas eorum in sanguinem, et occidit pisces eorum. |
| 30 | Their land brought forth frogs, in the inner chambers of their kings. | Edidit terra eorum ranas in penetralibus regum ipsorum. |
| 31 | He spoke, and there came divers sorts of flies and sciniphs in all their coasts. | Dixit, et venit coenomyia et ciniphes in omnibus finibus eorum. |
| 32 | He gave them hail for rain, a burning fire in the land. | Posuit pluvias eorum grandinem: ignem comburentem in terra ipsorum. |
| 33 | And he destroyed their vineyards and their fig trees: and he broke in pieces the trees of their coasts. | Et percussit vineas eorum, et ficulneas eorum, et contrivit lignum finium eorum. |
| 34 | He spoke, and the locust came, and the bruchus, of which there was no number. | Dixit, et venit locusta, et bruchus cuius non erat numerus: |
| 35 | And they devoured all the grass in their land, and consumed all the fruit of their ground. | et comedit omne foenum in terra eorum, et comedit omnem fructum terrae eorum. |
| 36 | And he slew all the firstborn in their land: the firstfruits of all their labour. | Et percussit omne primogenitum in terra eorum, primitias omnis laboris eorum. |
| 37 | And he brought them out with silver and gold: and there was not among their tribes one that was feeble. | Et eduxit eos cum argento et auro, et non erat in tribubus eorum infirmus. |
| 38 | Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them lay upon them. | Laetata est Aegyptus in profectione eorum, quia incubuit timor eorum super eos. |
| 39 | He spread a cloud for their protection, and fire to give them light in the night. | Expandit nubem in protectionem eorum, et ignem ut luceret eis per noctem. |
| 40 | They asked, and the quail came: and he filled them with the bread of heaven. | Petierunt, et venit coturnix, et pane caeli saturavit eos. |
| 41 | He opened the rock, and waters flowed: rivers ran down in the dry land. | Dirupit petram, et fluxerunt aquae: abierunt in sicco flumina. |
| 42 | Because he remembered his holy word, which he had spoken to his servant Abraham. | Quoniam memor fuit verbi sancti sui, quod habuit ad Abraham puerum suum. |
| 43 | And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness. | Et eduxit populum suum in exsultatione, et electos suos in laetitia. |
| 44 | And he gave them the lands of the Gentiles: and they possessed the labours of the people: | Et dedit illis regiones gentium, et labores populorum possederunt: |
| 45 | That they might observe his justifications, and seek after his law. | ut custodiant iustificationes eius, et legem eius requirant. |
