< Psalms 115 >
1 Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto Thy name give glory, for Thy mercy, and for Thy truth's sake.
Non nobis Domine, non nobis: sed nomini tuo da gloriam.
2 Wherefore should the nations say: 'Where is now their God?'
Super misericordia tua, et veritate tua: nequando dicant Gentes: Ubi est Deus eorum?
3 But our God is in the heavens; whatsoever pleased Him He hath done.
Deus autem noster in cælo: omnia quæcumque voluit, fecit.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
Simulacra gentium argentum, et aurum, opera manuum hominum.
5 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
Os habent, et non loquentur: oculos habent, et non videbunt.
6 They have ears, but they hear not; noses have they, but they smell not;
Aures habent, et non audient: nares habent, et non odorabunt.
7 They have hands, but they handle not; feet have they, but they walk not; neither speak they with their throat.
Manus habent, et non palpabunt: pedes habent, et non ambulabunt: non clamabunt in gutture suo.
8 They that make them shall be like unto them; yea, every one that trusteth in them.
Similes illis fiant qui faciunt ea: et omnes qui confidunt in eis.
9 O Israel, trust thou in the LORD! He is their help and their shield!
Domus Israel speravit in Domino: adiutor eorum et protector eorum est.
10 O house of Aaron, trust ye in the LORD! He is their help and their shield!
Domus Aaron speravit in Domino: adiutor eorum et protector eorum est.
11 Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
Qui timent Dominum, speraverunt in Domino: adiutor eorum et protector eorum est.
12 The LORD hath been mindful of us, He will bless — He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron.
Dominus memor fuit nostri: et benedixit nobis: Benedixit domui Israel: benedixit domui Aaron.
13 He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.
Benedixit omnibus, qui timent Dominum, pusillis cum maioribus.
14 The LORD increase you more and more, you and your children.
Adiiciat Dominus super vos: super vos, et super filios vestros.
15 Blessed be ye of the LORD who made heaven and earth.
Benedicti vos a Domino, qui fecit cælum, et terram.
16 The heavens are the heavens of the LORD; but the earth hath He given to the children of men.
Cælum cæli Domino: terram autem dedit filiis hominum.
17 The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence;
Non mortui laudabunt te Domine: neque omnes, qui descendunt in infernum. ()
18 But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for ever. Hallelujah.
Sed nos qui vivimus, benedicimus Domino, ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
