6 verbo Domini caeli firmati sunt et spiritu oris eius omnis virtus eorum
By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and by the breath of his mouth all their host.
7 congregans sicut in utre aquas maris ponens in thesauris abyssos
He gathereth together like heaps the waters of the sea: he layeth up in store-houses the depths [of the sea].
8 timeat Dominum omnis terra ab eo autem commoveantur omnes inhabitantes orbem
Let all the earth fear the Lord: of him stand in awe all the inhabitants of the world.
9 quoniam ipse dixit et facta sunt ipse mandavit et creata sunt
For he spoke, and it came into being: he commanded, and it stood fast.
10 Dominus dissipat consilia gentium reprobat autem cogitationes populorum et reprobat consilia principum
The Lord frustrateth the resolves of the nations: he bringeth to nought the thoughts of the people.
11 consilium autem Domini in aeternum manet cogitationes cordis eius in generatione et generationem
The counsel of the Lord will stand for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
12 beata gens cuius est Dominus Deus eius populus quem elegit in hereditatem sibi

13 de caelo respexit Dominus vidit omnes filios hominum
The Lord looketh from heaven; he seeth all the sons of men.
14 de praeparato habitaculo suo respexit super omnes qui habitant terram
From the place of his habitation he directeth his view upon all the inhabitants of the earth;
15 qui finxit singillatim corda eorum qui intellegit omnia opera illorum
He fashioneth their hearts altogether; he hath regard to all their works.
16 non salvatur rex per multam virtutem et gigans non salvabitur in multitudine virtutis suae
The king is not saved by the multitude of an army: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
17 fallax equus ad salutem in abundantia autem virtutis suae non salvabitur
Vain is the horse for victory: nor shall he deliver any by the greatness of his strength.
18 ecce oculi Domini super metuentes eum qui sperant super misericordia eius
Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon those that fear him, upon those that hope for his kindness.
19 ut eruat a morte animas eorum et alat eos in fame
To deliver from death their soul, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 anima nostra sustinet Dominum quoniam adiutor et protector noster est
Our soul waiteth for the Lord: our help and our shield is he.
21 quia in eo laetabitur cor nostrum et in nomine sancto eius speravimus
For in him shall our heart rejoice: because in his holy name have we trusted.
22 fiat misericordia tua Domine super nos quemadmodum speravimus in te
Let thy kindness, O Lord, be upon us, even as we hope in thee.
