Psalmus 114 (116)
Language: Latin
1 [Alleluja.] Dilexi, quoniam exaudiet Dominus vocem orationis meæ. 2 Quia inclinavit aurem suam mihi, et in diebus meis invocabo. 3 Circumdederunt me dolores mortis; et pericula inferni invenerunt me. Tribulationem et dolorem inveni, 4 et nomen Domini invocavi: o Domine, libera animam meam. 5 Misericors Dominus et justus, et Deus noster miseretur. 6 Custodiens parvulos Dominus; humiliatus sum, et liberavit me. 7 Convertere, anima mea, in requiem tuam, quia Dominus benefecit tibi: 8 quia eripuit animam meam de morte, oculos meos a lacrimis, pedes meos a lapsu. 9 Placebo Domino in regione vivorum.

Psalm 114 (116)
Language: English  after the Latin
1 I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer. 2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him. 3 The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow: 4 and I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul. 5 The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy. 6 The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me. 7 Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee. 8 For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling. 9 I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
