Seek ye Jehovah and his strength; Seek his face evermore.
5 Mementote mirabilium eius, quae fecit: prodigia eius, et iudicia oris eius.
Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, His wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,
6 Semen Abraham, servi eius: filii Iacob electi eius.
O ye seed of Abraham his servant, Ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
7 Ipse Dominus Deus noster: in universa terra iudicia eius.
He is Jehovah our God: His judgments are in all the earth.
8 Memor fuit in saeculum testamenti sui: verbi, quod mandavit in mille generationes:
He hath remembered his covenant for ever, The word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
9 Quod disposuit ad Abraham: et iuramenti sui ad Isaac:
[The covenant] which he made with Abraham, And his oath unto Isaac,
10 Et statuit illud Iacob in praeceptum: et Israel in testamentum aeternum:
And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a statute, To Israel for an everlasting covenant,
11 Dicens: Tibi dabo Terram Chanaan, funiculum hereditatis vestrae.
Saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, The lot of your inheritance;
12 Cum essent numero brevi, paucissimi et incolae eius:
When they were but a few men in number, Yea, very few, and sojourners in it.
13 Et pertransierunt de gente in gentem, et de regno ad populum alterum.
And they went about from nation to nation, From one kingdom to another people.
14 Non reliquit hominem nocere eis: et corripuit pro eis reges.
He suffered no man to do them wrong; Yea, he reproved kings for their sakes,
15 Nolite tangere christos meos: et in prophetis meis nolite malignari.
[Saying], Touch not mine anointed ones, And do my prophets no harm.
16 Et vocavit famem super terram: et omne firmamentum panis contrivit.
And he called for a famine upon the land; He brake the whole staff of bread.
17 Misit ante eos virum: in servum venundatus est Ioseph.
He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a servant:
18 Humiliaverunt in compedibus pedes eius, ferrum pertransiit animam eius,
His feet they hurt with fetters: He was laid in [chains of] iron,
19 donec veniret verbum eius. Eloquium Domini inflammavit eum:
Until the time that his word came to pass, The word of Jehovah tried him.
20 misit rex, et solvit eum; princeps populorum, et dimisit eum.
The king sent and loosed him; Even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
21 Constituit eum dominum domus suae: et principem omnis possessionis suae:
He made him lord of his house, And ruler of all his substance;
22 Ut erudiret principes eius sicut semetipsum: et senes eius prudentiam doceret.
To bind his princes at his pleasure, And teach his elders wisdom.
23 Et intravit Israel in Aegyptum: et Iacob accola fuit in Terra Cham.
Israel also came into Egypt; And Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 Et auxit populum suum vehementer: et firmavit eum super inimicos eius.
And he increased his people greatly, And made them stronger than their adversaries.
25 Convertit cor eorum ut odirent populum eius: et dolum facerent in servos eius.
He turned their heart to hate his people, To deal subtly with his servants.
26 Misit Moysen servum suum: Aaron, quem elegit ipsum.
He sent Moses his servant, [And] Aaron whom he had chosen.
27 Posuit in eis verba signorum suorum, et prodigiorum in Terra Cham.
They set among them his signs, And wonders in the land of Ham.
28 Misit tenebras, et obscuravit: et non exacerbavit sermones suos.
He sent darkness, and made it dark; And they rebelled not against his words.
29 Convertit aquas eorum in sanguinem: et occidit pisces eorum.
He turned their waters into blood, And slew their fish.

He spake, and there came swarms of flies, And lice in all their borders.
32 Posuit pluvias eorum grandinem: ignem comburentem in terra ipsorum.
He gave them hail for rain, [And] flaming fire in their land.
33 Et percussit vineas eorum, et ficulneas eorum: et contrivit lignum finium eorum.
He smote their vines also and their fig-trees, And brake the trees of their borders.
34 Dixit, et venit locusta, et bruchus, cuius non erat numerus:
He spake, and the locust came, And the grasshopper, and that without number,
35 Et comedit omne foenum in terra eorum: et comedit omnem fructum terrae eorum.
And did eat up every herb in their land, And did eat up the fruit of their ground.
36 Et percussit omne primogenitum in terra eorum: primitias omnis laboris eorum.
He smote also all the first-born in their land, The chief of all their strength.
37 Et eduxit eos cum argento et auro: et non erat in tribubus eorum infirmus.

38 Laetata est Aegyptus in profectione eorum: quia incubuit timor eorum super eos.
Egypt was glad when they departed; For the fear of them had fallen upon them.
39 Expandit nubem in protectionem eorum, et ignem ut luceret eis per noctem.
He spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to give light in the night.
40 Petierunt, et venit coturnix: et pane caeli saturavit eos.
They asked, and he brought quails, And satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41 Dirupit petram, et fluxerunt aquae: abierunt in sicco flumina;
He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; They ran in the dry places [like] a river.
42 Quoniam memor fuit verbi sancti sui, quod habuit ad Abraham puerum suum.
For he remembered his holy word, [And] Abraham his servant.
43 Et eduxit populum suum in exultatione, et electos suos in laetitia.
And he brought forth his people with joy, [And] his chosen with singing.
44 Et dedit illis regiones gentium: et labores populorum possederunt:
And he gave them the lands of the nations; And they took the labor of the peoples in possession:
45 Ut custodiant iustificationes eius, et legem eius requirant.
That they might keep his statutes, And observe his laws. Praise ye Jehovah.
