1 Prima sabbati. Psalmus David. Domini est terra, et plenitudo ejus ; orbis terrarum, et universi qui habitant in eo.

2 Quia ipse super maria fundavit eum, et super flumina præparavit eum.

3 Quis ascendet in montem Domini ? aut quis stabit in loco sancto ejus ?

4 Innocens manibus et mundo corde, qui non accepit in vano animam suam, nec juravit in dolo proximo suo :

5 hic accipiet benedictionem a Domino, et misericordiam a Deo salutari suo.

6 Hæc est generatio quærentium eum, quærentium faciem Dei Jacob.

7 Attollite portas, principes, vestras, et elevamini, portæ æternales, et introibit rex gloriæ.

8 Quis est iste rex gloriæ ? Dominus fortis et potens, Dominus potens in prælio.

9 Attollite portas, principes, vestras, et elevamini, portæ æternales, et introibit rex gloriæ.

10 Quis est iste rex gloriæ ? Dominus virtutum ipse est rex gloriæ.

English text

1 The earth is the Lord's, and all that therein is : the compass of the world, and they that dwell therein.

2 For he hath founded it upon the seas : and prepared it upon the floods.

3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord : or who shall rise up in his holy place?

4 Even he that hath clean hands, and a pure heart : and that hath not lift up his mind unto vanity, nor sworn to deceive his neighbour.

5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord : and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

6 This is the generation of them that seek him : even of them that seek thy face, O Jacob.

7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors : and the King of glory shall come in.

8 Who is the King of glory : it is the Lord strong and mighty, even the Lord mighty in battle.

9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates, and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors : and the King of glory shall come in.

10 Who is the King of glory : even the Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory.
