2 psalmum dicite nomini eius: date gloriam laudi eius.

6 Qui convertit mare in aridam, in flumine pertransibunt pede: ibi laetabimur in ipso.

7 Qui dominatur in virtute sua in aeternum, oculi eius super gentes respiciunt: qui exasperant non exaltentur in semetipsis.
He is ruling in power for ever; his eyes are watching the nations: may his haters have no strength against him. (Selah)
8 Benedicite Gentes Deum nostrum: et auditam facite vocem laudis eius,

9 Qui posuit animam meam ad vitam: et non dedit in commotionem pedes meos.

10 Quoniam probasti nos Deus: igne nos examinasti, sicut examinatur argentum.

11 Induxisti nos in laqueum, posuisti tribulationes in dorso nostro:
You let us be put in prison; chains were put on our legs.
12 imposuisti homines super capita nostra. Transivimus per ignem et aquam: et eduxisti nos in refrigerium.
You let men go driving over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but you took us out into a wide place.
13 Introibo in domum tuam in holocaustis: reddam tibi vota mea,
I will come into your house with burned offerings, I will make payment of my debt to you,
14 quae distinxerunt labia mea. Et locutum est os meum, in tribulatione mea.
Keeping the word which came from my lips, and which my mouth said, when I was in trouble.
15 Holocausta medullata offeram tibi cum incenso arietum: offeram tibi boves cum hircis.
I will give you burned offerings of fat beasts, and the smoke of sheep; I will make offerings of oxen and goats. (Selah)
16 Venite, audite, et narrabo, omnes qui timetis Deum, quanta fecit animae meae.
Come, give ear to me, all you God-fearing men, so that I may make clear to you what he has done for my soul.
17 Ad ipsum ore meo clamavi, et exultavi sub lingua mea.
My voice went up to him, and I was lifted up from the underworld.
18 Iniquitatem si aspexi in corde meo, non exaudiet Dominus.
I said in my heart, The Lord will not give ear to me:
19 Propterea exaudivit Deus, et attendit voci deprecationis meae.
But truly God's ear has been open; he has give attention to the voice of my prayer.
20 Benedictus Deus, qui non amovit orationem meam, et misericordiam suam a me.
Praise be to God who has not taken away his good faith and his mercy from me.
