Douay-Rheims and Vulgata Clementina, verse by verse.
| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Praise ye the name of the Lord: O you his servants, praise the Lord: | Alleluia. Laudate nomen Domini; laudate, servi, Dominum: |
| 2 | You that stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God. | qui statis in domo Domini, in atriis domus Dei nostri. |
| 3 | Praise ye the Lord, for the Lord is good: sing ye to his name, for it is sweet. | Laudate Dominum, quia bonus Dominus; psallite nomini eius, quoniam suave. |
| 4 | For the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto himself: Israel for his own possession. | Quoniam Iacob elegit sibi Dominus; Israël in possessionem sibi. |
| 5 | For I have known that the Lord is great, and our God is above all gods. | Quia ego cognovi quod magnus est Dominus, et Deus noster prae omnibus diis. |
| 6 | Whatsoever the Lord hath pleased he hath done, in heaven, in earth, in the sea, and in all the deeps. | Omnia quaecumque voluit Dominus fecit, in caelo, in terra, in mari et in omnibus abyssis. |
| 7 | He bringeth up clouds from the end of the earth: he hath made lightnings for the rain. He bringeth forth winds out of his stores: | Educens nubes ab extremo terrae, fulgura in pluviam fecit; qui producit ventos de thesauris suis. |
| 8 | He slew the firstborn of Egypt from man even unto beast. | Qui percussit primogenita Aegypti, ab homine usque ad pecus. |
| 9 | He sent forth signs and wonders in the midst of thee, O Egypt: upon Pharao, and upon all his servants. | Et misit signa et prodigia in medio tui, Aegypte: in Pharaonem, et in omnes servos eius. |
| 10 | He smote many nations, and slew mighty kings: | Qui percussit gentes multas, et occidit reges fortes: |
| 11 | Sehon king of the Amorrhites, and Og king of Basan, and all the kingdoms of Chanaan. | Sehon, regem Amorrhaeorum, et Og, regem Basan, et omnia regna Chanaan: |
| 12 | And gave their land for an inheritance, for an inheritance to his people Israel. | et dedit terram eorum haereditatem, haereditatem Israël populo suo. |
| 13 | Thy name, O Lord, is for ever: thy memorial, O Lord, unto all generations. | Domine, nomen tuum in aeternum; Domine, memoriale tuum in generationem et generationem. |
| 14 | For the Lord will judge his people, and will be entreated in favour of his servants. | Quia iudicabit Dominus populum suum, et in servis suis deprecabitur. |
| 15 | The idols of the Gentiles are silver and gold, the works of men’s hands. | Simulacra gentium argentum et aurum, opera manuum hominum. |
| 16 | They have a mouth, but they speak not: they have eyes, but they see not. | Os habent, et non loquentur; oculos habent, et non videbunt. |
| 17 | They have ears, but they hear not: neither is there any breath in their mouths. | Aures habent, et non audient; neque enim est spiritus in ore ipsorum. |
| 18 | Let them that make them be like to them: and every one that trusteth in them. | Similes illis fiant qui faciunt ea, et omnes qui confidunt in eis. |
| 19 | Bless the Lord, O house of Israel: bless the Lord, O house of Aaron. | Domus Israël, benedicite Domino; domus Aaron, benedicite Domino. |
| 20 | Bless the Lord, O house of Levi: you that fear the Lord, bless the Lord. | Domus Levi, benedicite Domino; qui timetis Dominum, benedicite Domino. |
| 21 | Blessed be the Lord out of Sion, who dwelleth in Jerusalem. | Benedictus Dominus ex Sion, qui habitat in Ierusalem. |
