Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Alleluia. Give glory to the Lord, and call upon his name: declare his deeds among the Gentiles.
1Alleluja. [Confitemini Domino, et invocate nomen ejus; annuntiate inter gentes opera ejus.
2Sing to him, yea sing praises to him: relate all his wondrous works.
2Cantate ei, et psallite ei; narrate omnia mirabilia ejus.
3Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the Lord.
3Laudamini in nomine sancto ejus; lætetur cor quærentium Dominum.
4Seek ye the Lord, and be strengthened: seek his face evermore.
4Quærite Dominum, et confirmamini; quærite faciem ejus semper.
5Remember his marvellous works which he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth.
5Mementote mirabilium ejus quæ fecit; prodigia ejus, et judicia oris ejus:
6O ye seed of Abraham his servant; ye sons of Jacob his chosen.
6semen Abraham servi ejus; filii Jacob electi ejus.
7He is the Lord our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
7Ipse Dominus Deus noster; in universa terra judicia ejus.
8He hath remembered his covenant for ever: the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
8Memor fuit in sæculum testamenti sui; verbi quod mandavit in mille generationes:
9Which he made to Abraham; and his oath to Isaac:
9quod disposuit ad Abraham, et juramenti sui ad Isaac:
10And he appointed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting testament:
10et statuit illud Jacob in præceptum, et Israël in testamentum æternum,
11Saying: To thee will I give the land of Chanaan, the lot of your inheritance.
11dicens: Tibi dabo terram Chanaan, funiculum hæreditatis vestræ:
12When they were but a small number: yea very few, and sojourners therein:
12cum essent numero brevi, paucissimi, et incolæ ejus.
13And they passed from nation to nation, and from one kingdom to another people.
13Et pertransierunt de gente in gentem, et de regno ad populum alterum.
14He suffered no man to hurt them: and he reproved kings for their sakes.
14Non reliquit hominem nocere eis: et corripuit pro eis reges.
15Touch ye not my anointed: and do no evil to my prophets.
15Nolite tangere christos meos, et in prophetis meis nolite malignari.
16And he called a famine upon the land: and he broke in pieces all the support of bread.
16Et vocavit famem super terram, et omne firmamentum panis contrivit.
17He sent a man before them: Joseph, who was sold for a slave.
17Misit ante eos virum: in servum venundatus est, Joseph.
18They humbled his feet in fetters: the iron pierced his soul,
18Humiliaverunt in compedibus pedes ejus; ferrum pertransiit animam ejus:
19Until his word came. The word of the Lord inflamed him.
19donec veniret verbum ejus. Eloquium Domini inflammavit eum.
20The king sent, and he released him: the ruler of the people, and he set him at liberty.
20Misit rex, et solvit eum; princeps populorum, et dimisit eum.
21He made him master of his house, and ruler of all his possession.
21Constituit eum dominum domus suæ, et principem omnis possessionis suæ:
22That he might instruct his princes as himself, and teach his ancients wisdom.
22ut erudiret principes ejus sicut semetipsum, et senes ejus prudentiam doceret.
23And Israel went into Egypt: and Jacob was a sojourner in the land of Cham.
23Et intravit Israël in Ægyptum, et Jacob accola fuit in terra Cham.
24And he increased his people exceedingly: and strengthened them over their enemies,
24Et auxit populum suum vehementer, et firmavit eum super inimicos ejus.
25He turned their heart to hate his people: and to deal deceitfully with his servants.
25Convertit cor eorum, ut odirent populum ejus, et dolum facerent in servos ejus.
26He sent Moses his servant: Aaron the man whom he had chosen.
26Misit Moysen servum suum; Aaron quem elegit ipsum.
27He gave them power to shew his signs, and his wonders in the land of Cham.
27Posuit in eis verba signorum suorum, et prodigiorum in terra Cham.
28He sent darkness, and made it obscure: and grieved not his words.
28Misit tenebras, et obscuravit; et non exacerbavit sermones suos.
29He turned their waters into blood, and destroyed their fish.
29Convertit aquas eorum in sanguinem, et occidit pisces eorum.
30Their land brought forth frogs, in the inner chambers of their kings.
30Edidit terra eorum ranas in penetralibus regum ipsorum.
31He spoke, and there came divers sorts of flies and sciniphs in all their coasts.
31Dixit, et venit cœnomyia et ciniphes in omnibus finibus eorum.
32He gave them hail for rain, a burning fire in the land.
32Posuit pluvias eorum grandinem: ignem comburentem in terra ipsorum.
33And he destroyed their vineyards and their fig trees: and he broke in pieces the trees of their coasts.
33Et percussit vineas eorum, et ficulneas eorum, et contrivit lignum finium eorum.
34He spoke, and the locust came, and the bruchus, of which there was no number.
34Dixit, et venit locusta, et bruchus cujus non erat numerus:
35And they devoured all the grass in their land, and consumed all the fruit of their ground.
35et comedit omne fœnum in terra eorum, et comedit omnem fructum terræ eorum.
36And he slew all the firstborn in their land: the firstfruits of all their labour.
36Et percussit omne primogenitum in terra eorum, primitias omnis laboris eorum.
37And he brought them out with silver and gold: and there was not among their tribes one that was feeble.
37Et eduxit eos cum argento et auro, et non erat in tribubus eorum infirmus.
38Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them lay upon them.
38Lætata est Ægyptus in profectione eorum, quia incubuit timor eorum super eos.
39He spread a cloud for their protection, and fire to give them light in the night.
39Expandit nubem in protectionem eorum, et ignem ut luceret eis per noctem.
40They asked, and the quail came: and he filled them with the bread of heaven.
40Petierunt, et venit coturnix, et pane cæli saturavit eos.
41He opened the rock, and waters flowed: rivers ran down in the dry land.
41Dirupit petram, et fluxerunt aquæ: abierunt in sicco flumina.
42Because he remembered his holy word, which he had spoken to his servant Abraham.
42Quoniam memor fuit verbi sancti sui, quod habuit ad Abraham puerum suum.
43And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness.
43Et eduxit populum suum in exsultatione, et electos suos in lætitia.
44And he gave them the lands of the Gentiles: and they possessed the labours of the people:
44Et dedit illis regiones gentium, et labores populorum possederunt:
45That they might observe his justifications, and seek after his law.
45ut custodiant justificationes ejus, et legem ejus requirant.]
