Alleluja. Cantate Domino canticum novum ; laus ejus in ecclesia sanctorum.
Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: let his praise be in the church of the saints.
Lætetur Israël in eo qui fecit eum, et filii Sion exsultent in rege suo.
Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: and let the children of Sion be joyful in their king.
Laudent nomen ejus in choro ; in tympano et psalterio psallant ei.
Let them praise his name in choir: let them sing to him with the timbrel and the psaltery.
Quia beneplacitum est Domino in populo suo, et exaltabit mansuetos in salutem.
For the Lord is well pleased with his people: and he will exalt the meek unto salvation.
Exsultabunt sancti in gloria ; lætabuntur in cubilibus suis.
The saints shall rejoice in glory: they shall be joyful in their beds.
Exaltationes Dei in gutture eorum, et gladii ancipites in manibus eorum :
The high praises of God shall be in their mouth: and two-edged swords in their hands:
ad faciendam vindictam in nationibus, increpationes in populis ;
To execute vengeance upon the nations, chastisements among the people:
ad alligandos reges eorum in compedibus, et nobiles eorum in manicis ferreis ;
To bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron.
ut faciant in eis judicium conscriptum : gloria hæc est omnibus sanctis ejus. Alleluja.
To execute upon them the judgment that is written: this glory is to all his saints. Alleluia.
