Alleluia.

English translation
Confirm, O God,
what thou hast wrought in us.
From thy temple in Jerusalem
Kings shall offer presents to thee.
Alleluia.
Psalm 67:29-30 according to the Vulgate numbering, although the Latin is not the Vulgate version. Psalm 68:28-29 in the New International Version, which reads (suggesting that the Latin itself is partly a mistranslation):
Show us your strength O God, as you have done before.
Because of your temple at Jerusalem kings will bring you gifts.
