32:1 A psalm for David. Rejoice in the Lord, O ye just: praise becometh the upright.
Psalmus David. Exsultate, justi, in Domino; rectos decet collaudatio.

32:2 Give praise to the Lord on the harp; sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings.
Confitemini Domino in cithara; in psalterio decem chordarum psallite illi.

32:3 Sing to him a new canticle, sing well unto him with a loud noise.
Cantate ei canticum novum; bene psallite ei in vociferatione.

32:4 For the word of the Lord is right, and all his works are done with faithfulness.
Quia rectum est verbum Domini, et omnia opera ejus in fide.

32:5 He loveth mercy and judgment; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
Diligit misericordiam et judicium; misericordia Domini plena est terra.

32:6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the power of them, by the spirit of his mouth:
Verbo Domini cæli firmati sunt, et spiritu oris ejus omnis virtus eorum.

32:7 Gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; laying up the depths in storehouses.
Congregans sicut in utre aquas maris; ponens in thesauris abyssos.

32:8 Let all the earth fear the Lord, and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him.
Timeat Dominum omnis terra; ab eo autem commoveantur omnes inhabitantes orbem.

32:9 For he spoke, and they were made: he commanded, and they were created.
Quoniam ipse dixit, et facta sunt; ipse mandavit et creata sunt.

32:10 The Lord bringeth to naught the counsels of nations; and he rejecteth the devices of people, and casteth away the counsels of princes.
Dominus dissipat consilia gentium; reprobat autem cogitationes populorum, et reprobat consilia principum.

32:11 But the counsel of the Lord standeth for ever: the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
Consilium autem Domini in æternum manet; cogitationes cordis ejus in generatione et generationem.

32:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance.
Beata gens cujus est Dominus Deus ejus; populus quem elegit in hæreditatem sibi.

32:13 The Lord hath looked from heaven: he hath beheld all the sons of men.
De cælo respexit Dominus; vidit omnes filios hominum.

32:14 From his habitation which he hath prepared, he hath looked upon all that dwell on the earth.
De præparato habitaculo suo respexit super omnes qui habitant terram:

32:15 He who hath made the hearts of every one of them: who understandeth all their works.
qui finxit sigillatim corda eorum; qui intelligit omnia opera eorum.

32:16 The king is not saved by a great army: nor shall the giant be saved by his own great strength.
Non salvatur rex per multam virtutem, et gigas non salvabitur in multitudine virtutis suæ.

32:17 Vain is the horse for safety: neither shall he be saved by the abundance of his strength.
Fallax equus ad salutem; in abundantia autem virtutis suæ non salvabitur.

32:18 Behold the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him: and on them that hope in his mercy.
Ecce oculi Domini super metuentes eum, et in eis qui sperant super misericordia ejus:

32:19 To deliver their souls from death: and feed them in famine.
ut eruat a morte animas eorum, et alat eos in fame.

32:20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: for he is our helper and protector.
Anima nostra sustinet Dominum, quoniam adjutor et protector noster est.

32:21 For in him our heart shall rejoice: and in his holy name we have trusted.
Quia in eo lætabitur cor nostrum, et in nomine sancto ejus speravimus.

32:22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, as we have hoped in thee.
Fiat misericordia tua, Domine, super nos, quemadmodum speravimus in te.
