Psalms 137

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	VULGATA
1 Of David himself. O Lord, I will confess to you with my whole heart, for you have heard the words of my mouth. I will sing psalms to you in the sight of the Angels.	1 Ipsi David. Confitebor tibi, Domine, in toto corde meo, quoniam audisti verba oris mei. In conspectu angelorum psallam tibi ;
2 I will adore before your holy temple, and I will confess your name: it is above your mercy and your truth. For you have magnified your holy name above all.	2 adorabo ad templum sanctum tuum, et confitebor nomini tuo : super misericordia tua et veritate tua ; quoniam magnificasti super omne, nomen sanctum tuum.
3 On whatever day that I will call upon you: hear me. You will multiply virtue in my soul.	3 In quacumque die invocavero te, exaudi me ; multiplicabis in anima mea virtutem.
4 May all the kings of the earth confess to you, O Lord. For they have heard all the words of your mouth.	4 Confiteantur tibi, Domine, omnes reges terræ, quia audierunt omnia verba oris tui.
5 And let them sing in accordance with the ways of the Lord. For great is the glory of the Lord.	5 Et cantent in viis Domini, quoniam magna est gloria Domini ;
6 For the Lord is exalted, and he looks with favor on the humble. But the lofty he knows from a distance.	6 quoniam excelsus Dominus, et humilia respicit, et alta a longe cognoscit.
7 If I wander into the midst of tribulation, you will revive me. For you extended your hand against the wrath of my enemies. And your right hand has accomplished my salvation.	7 Si ambulavero in medio tribulationis, vivificabis me ; et super iram inimicorum meorum extendisti manum tuam, et salvum me fecit dextera tua.
8 The Lord will provide retribution on my behalf. O Lord, your mercy is forever. Do not disdain the works of your hands.	8 Dominus retribuet pro me. Domine, misericordia tua in sæculum ; opera manuum tuarum ne despicias.
