Clementine Vulgate (Psalm 107)
1 Canticum Psalmi, ipsi David.
2 Paratum cor meum, Deus, paratum cor meum ; cantabo, et psallam in gloria mea.
3 Exsurge, gloria mea ; exsurge, psalterium et cithara ; exsurgam diluculo.
4 Confitebor tibi in populis, Domine, et psallam tibi in nationibus :
5 quia magna est super cælos misericordia tua, et usque ad nubes veritas tua.
6 Exaltare super cælos, Deus, et super omnem terram gloria tua :
7 ut liberentur dilecti tui. Salvum fac dextera tua, et exaudi me.
8 Deus locutus est in sancto suo : Exsultabo, et dividam Sichimam ; et convallem tabernaculorum dimetiar.
9 Meus est Galaad, et meus est Manasses, et Ephraim susceptio capitis mei. Juda rex meus ;
10 Moab lebes spei meæ : in Idumæam extendam calceamentum meum ; mihi alienigenæ amici facti sunt.
11 Quis deducet me in civitatem munitam ? quis deducet me usque in Idumæam ?
12 nonne tu, Deus, qui repulisti nos ? et non exibis, Deus, in virtutibus nostris ?
13 Da nobis auxilium de tribulatione, quia vana salus hominis.
14 In Deo faciemus virtutem ; et ipse ad nihilum deducet inimicos nostros.
Church of England 1662 Book of Common Prayer
1 O God, my heart is ready, my heart is ready : I will sing and give praise with the best member that I have.
2 Awake, thou lute, and harp : I myself will awake right early.
3 I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the people : I will sing praises unto thee among the nations.
4 For thy mercy is greater than the heavens : and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds.
5 Set up thyself, O God, above the heavens : and thy glory above all the earth.
6 That thy beloved may be delivered : let thy right hand save them, and hear thou me.
7 God hath spoken in his holiness : I will rejoice therefore, and divide Sichem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
8 Gilead is mine, and Manasses is mine : Ephraim also is the strength of my head.
9 Judah is my law-giver, Moab is my wash-pot : over Edom will I cast out my shoe, upon Philistia will I triumph.
10 Who will lead me into the strong city : and who will bring me into Edom?
11 Hast not thou forsaken us, O God : and wilt not thou, O God, go forth with our hosts?
12 O help us against the enemy : for vain is the help of man.
13 Through God we shall do great acts : and it is he that shall tread down our enemies.
