Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1I will give you thanks with my whole heart. Before the gods, I will sing praises to you.
1In finem, psalmus David. [Domine, probasti me, et cognovisti me;
2I will bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your Name for your loving kindness and for your truth; for you have exalted your Name and your Word above all.
2tu cognovisti sessionem meam et resurrectionem meam.
3In the day that I called, you answered me. You encouraged me with strength in my soul.
3Intellexisti cogitationes meas de longe; semitam meam et funiculum meum investigasti:
4All the kings of the earth will give you thanks, LORD, for they have heard the words of your mouth.
4et omnes vias meas prævidisti, quia non est sermo in lingua mea.
5Yes, they will sing of the ways of the LORD, for the LORD’s glory is great!
5Ecce, Domine, tu cognovisti omnia, novissima et antiqua. Tu formasti me, et posuisti super me manum tuam.
6For though the LORD is high, yet he looks after the lowly; but he knows the proud from afar.
6Mirabilis facta est scientia tua ex me; confortata est, et non potero ad eam.
7Though I walk in the middle of trouble, you will revive me. You will stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies. Your right hand will save me.
7Quo ibo a spiritu tuo? et quo a facie tua fugiam?
8The LORD will fulfill that which concerns me. Your loving kindness, LORD, endures forever. Don’t forsake the works of your own hands.
8Si ascendero in cælum, tu illic es; si descendero in infernum, ades.
