Latin text
1 Alleluja, Aggæi et Zachariæ.
2 Lauda, anima mea, Dominum. Laudabo Dominum in vita mea ; psallam Deo meo quamdiu fuero. Nolite confidere in principibus,
3 in filiis hominum, in quibus non est salus.
4 Exibit spiritus ejus, et revertetur in terram suam ; in illa die peribunt omnes cogitationes eorum.
5 Beatus cujus Deus Jacob adjutor ejus, spes ejus in Domino Deo ipsius :
6 qui fecit cælum et terram, mare, et omnia quæ in eis sunt.
7 Qui custodit veritatem in sæculum ; facit judicium injuriam patientibus ; dat escam esurientibus. Dominus solvit compeditos ;
8 Dominus illuminat cæcos. Dominus erigit elisos ; Dominus diligit justos.
9 Dominus custodit advenas, pupillum et viduam suscipiet, et vias peccatorum disperdet.
10 Regnabit Dominus in sæcula ; Deus tuus, Sion, in generationem et generationem.
Church of England 1662 Book of Common Prayer
English text
1 Praise the Lord, O my soul; while I live will I praise the Lord : yea, as long as I have any being, I will sing praises unto my God.
2 O put not your trust in princes, nor in any child of man : for there is no help in them.
3 For when the breath of man goeth forth he shall turn again to his earth : and then all his thoughts perish.
4 Blessed is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help : and whose hope is in the Lord his God;
5 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that therein is : who keepeth his promise for ever;
6 Who helpeth them to right that suffer wrong : who feedeth the hungry.
7 The Lord looseth men out of prison : the Lord giveth sight to the blind.
8 The Lord helpeth them that are fallen : the Lord careth for the righteous.
9 The Lord careth for the strangers, he defendeth the fatherless and widow : as for the way of the ungodly, he turneth it upside down.
10 The Lord thy God, O Sion, shall be King for evermore : and throughout all generations.
