Incipite Domino in tympanis, cantate Domino in cymbalis:
Modulamini in illi psalmum novum:
Exultate et invocate nomen eius.

Adonai Domine magnus es tu et praeclarus in virtute.

Begin unto my Lord with timbrels, sing unto my Lord with cymbals:
Tune unto him a new psalm:
Rejoice and call upon his name.
Let us sing a hymn to the Lord, let us sing a new hymn to our God.
O Adonai, Lord, great art thou, and glorious in thy power.
