| Douay-Rheims | Vulgata Clementina | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | I will extol thee, O God my king: and I will bless thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever. | Laudatio ipsi David. Exaltabo te, Deus meus rex, et benedicam nomini tuo in saeculum, et in saeculum saeculi. |
| 2 | Every day I will bless thee: and I will praise thy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever. | Per singulos dies benedicam tibi, et laudabo nomen tuum in saeculum, et in saeculum saeculi. |
| 3 | Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: and of his greatness there is no end. | Magnus Dominus, et laudabilis nimis, et magnitudinis eius non est finis. |
| 4 | Generation and generation shall praise thy works: and they shall declare thy power. | Generatio et generatio laudabit opera tua, et potentiam tuam pronuntiabunt. |
| 5 | They shall speak of the magnificence of the glory of thy holiness: and shall tell thy wondrous works. | Magnificentiam gloriae sanctitatis tuae loquentur, et mirabilia tua narrabunt. |
| 6 | And they shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and shall declare thy greatness. | Et virtutem terribilium tuorum dicent, et magnitudinem tuam narrabunt. |
| 7 | They shall publish the memory of the abundance of thy sweetness: and shall rejoice in thy justice. | Memoriam abundantiae suavitatis tuae eructabunt, et iustitia tua exsultabunt. |
| 8 | The Lord is gracious and merciful: patient and plenteous in mercy. | Miserator et misericors Dominus: patiens, et multum misericors. |
| 9 | The Lord is sweet to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. | Suavis Dominus universis, et miserationes eius super omnia opera eius. |
| 10 | Let all thy works, O lord, praise thee: and let thy saints bless thee. | Confiteantur tibi, Domine, omnia opera tua, et sancti tui benedicant tibi. |
| 11 | They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom: and shall tell of thy power: | Gloriam regni tui dicent, et potentiam tuam loquentur: |
| 12 | To make thy might known to the sons of men: and the glory of the magnificence of thy kingdom. | ut notam faciant filiis hominum potentiam tuam, et gloriam magnificentiae regni tui. |
| 13 | Thy kingdom is a kingdom of all ages: and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations. The Lord is faithful in all his words: and holy in all his works. | Regnum tuum regnum omnium saeculorum; et dominatio tua in omni generatione et generationem. Fidelis Dominus in omnibus verbis suis, et sanctus in omnibus operibus suis. |
| 14 | The Lord lifteth up all that fall: and setteth up all that are cast down. | Allevat Dominus omnes qui corruunt, et erigit omnes elisos. |
| 15 | The eyes of all hope in thee, O Lord: and thou givest them meat in due season. | Oculi omnium in te sperant, Domine, et tu das escam illorum in tempore opportuno. |
| 16 | Thou openest thy hand, and fillest with blessing every living creature. | Aperis tu manum tuam, et imples omne animal benedictione. |
| 17 | The Lord is just in all his ways: and holy in all his works. | Iustus Dominus in omnibus viis suis, et sanctus in omnibus operibus suis. |
| 18 | The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him: to all that call upon him in truth. | Prope est Dominus omnibus invocantibus eum, omnibus invocantibus eum in veritate. |
| 19 | He will do the will of them that fear him: and he will hear their prayer, and save them. | Voluntatem timentium se faciet, et deprecationem eorum exaudiet, et salvos faciet eos. |
| 20 | The Lord keepeth all them that love him; but all the wicked he will destroy. | Custodit Dominus omnes diligentes se, et omnes peccatores disperdet. |
| 21 | My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord: and let all flesh bless thy holy name for ever; yea, for ever and ever. | Laudationem Domini loquetur os meum; et benedicat omnis caro nomini sancto eius in saeculum, et in saeculum saeculi. |
