10 Et statuit illud Iacob in praeceptum: et Israel in testamentum aeternum:
And confirmed the same unto Jacob for a law, and 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 strangers in it.
13 Et pertransierunt de gente in gentem, et de regno ad populum alterum.
When they went from one nation to another, 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, and do my prophets no harm.
16 Et vocavit famem super terram: et omne firmamentum panis contrivit.

Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron:
19 donec veniret verbum eius. Eloquium Domini inflammavit eum:
Until the time that his word came: the word of YHWH tried him.
20 misit rex, et solvit eum; princeps populorum, et dimisit eum.
The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free.
21 Constituit eum dominum domus suae: et principem omnis possessionis suae:
He made him master 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 senators wisdom.
23 Et intravit Israel in Aegyptum: et Iacob accola fuit in Terra Cham.

The people 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 the 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 promise, 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 gladness:
44 Et dedit illis regiones gentium: et labores populorum possederunt:
And gave them the lands of the heathen: and they inherited the labour of the people;
45 Ut custodiant iustificationes eius, et legem eius requirant.
That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye YHWH.
