1 My heart’s thanks, Lord, for listening to the prayer I uttered; angels for my witnesses,[1] I will sing of thy praise. 2 I bow down in worship towards thy sanctuary, praising thy name for thy mercy and faithfulness; thy own honour and thy pledged word thou hast vindicated for all the world to see. 3 To thee I appealed, and thou didst listen to me, didst fill my heart with courage. 4 All the kings of the earth, Lord, will praise thee now; were not thy promises made in their hearing? 5 Their song shall be of the Lord’s doings, how great is his renown, 6 the Lord, who is so high above us, yet looks with favour on the humble, looks on the proud too, but from far off. 7 Though affliction surround my path, thou dost preserve me; it is thy power that confronts my enemies’ malice, thy right hand that rescues me. 8 My purposes the Lord will yet speed; thy mercy, Lord, endures for ever, and wilt thou abandon us, the creatures of thy own hands? |
1 Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, quoniam audisti verba oris mei. In conspectu angelorum psallam tibi; 2 adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum, et confitebor nomini tuo: super misericordia tua et veritate tua; quoniam magnificasti super omne, nomen sanctum tuum. 3 In quacumque die invocavero te, exaudi me; multiplicabis in anima mea virtutem. 4 Confiteantur tibi, Domine, omnes reges terræ, quia audierunt omnia verba oris tui. 5 Et cantent in viis Domini, quoniam magna est gloria Domini; 6 quoniam excelsus Dominus, et humilia respicit, et alta a longe cognoscit. 7 Si ambulavero in medio tribulationis, vivificabis me; et super iram inimicorum meorum extendisti manum tuam, et salvum me fecit dextera tua. 8 Dominus retribuet pro me. Domine, misericordia tua in sæculum; opera manuum tuarum ne despicias. |
