1Alleluja. [Lauda, Jerusalem, Dominum; lauda Deum tuum, Sion.
1Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem: praise thy God, O Sion.
2Quoniam confortavit seras portarum tuarum; benedixit filiis tuis in te.
2Because he hath strengthened the bolts of thy gates, he hath blessed thy children within thee.
3Qui posuit fines tuos pacem, et adipe frumenti satiat te.
3Who hath placed peace in thy borders: and filleth thee with the fat of corn.
4Qui emittit eloquium suum terræ: velociter currit sermo ejus.
4Who sendeth forth his speech to the earth: his word runneth swiftly.
5Qui dat nivem sicut lanam; nebulam sicut cinerem spargit.
5Who giveth snow like wool: scattereth mists like ashes.
6Mittit crystallum suam sicut buccellas: ante faciem frigoris ejus quis sustinebit?
6He sendeth his crystal like morsels: who shall stand before the face of his cold?
7Emittet verbum suum, et liquefaciet ea; flabit spiritus ejus, et fluent aquæ.
7He shall send out his word, and shall melt them: his wind shall blow, and the waters shall run.
8Qui annuntiat verbum suum Jacob, justitias et judicia sua Israël.
8Who declareth his word to Jacob: his justices and his judgments to Israel.
9Non fecit taliter omni nationi, et judicia sua non manifestavit eis. Alleluja.]
9He hath not done in like manner to every nation: and his judgments he hath not made manifest to them. Alleluia.
