A psalm for David. Rejoice in the Lord, O ye just: praise becometh the upright.
2 confitemini Domino in cithara in psalterio decem cordarum psallite illi
Give praise to the Lord on the harp; sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings.

6 verbo Domini caeli firmati sunt et spiritu oris eius omnis virtus eorum
By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the power of them by the spirit of his mouth:
7 congregans sicut in utre aquas maris ponens in thesauris abyssos
Gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; laying up the depths in storehouses.
8 timeat Dominum omnis terra ab eo autem commoveantur omnes inhabitantes orbem
Let all the earth fear the Lord, and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him.
9 quoniam ipse dixit et facta sunt ipse mandavit et creata sunt
For he spoke and they were made: he commanded and they were created.
10 Dominus dissipat consilia gentium reprobat autem cogitationes populorum et reprobat consilia principum
The Lord bringeth to naught the counsels of nations; and he rejecteth the devices of people, and casteth away the counsels of princes.
11 consilium autem Domini in aeternum manet cogitationes cordis eius in generatione et generationem
But the counsel of the Lord standeth for ever: the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

16 non salvatur rex per multam virtutem et gigans non salvabitur in multitudine virtutis suae

17 fallax equus ad salutem in abundantia autem virtutis suae non salvabitur
Vain is the horse for safety: neither shall he be saved by the abundance of his strength.
18 ecce oculi Domini super metuentes eum qui sperant super misericordia eius
Behold the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him: and on them that hope in his mercy.
