Vulgate (Psalm 66)
Latin text
- In finem, in hymnis. Psalmus cantici David.
1 Deus misereatur nostri, et benedicat nobis ; illuminet vultum suum super nos, et misereatur nostri :
2 ut cognascamus in terra viam tuam, in omnibus gentibus salutare tuum.
3 Confiteantur tibi populi, Deus : confiteantur tibi populi omnes.
4 Lætentur et exsultent gentes, quoniam judicas populos in æquitate, et gentes in terra dirigis.
5 Confiteantur tibi populi, Deus : confiteantur tibi populi omnes.
6 Terra dedit fructum suum : benedicat nos Deus, Deus noster !
7 Benedicat nos Deus, et metuant eum omnes fines terræ.

Metrical 'New Version' (Tate/Brady)
English text
To bless thy chosen race,
In mercy, Lord, incline;
And cause the brightness of thy face
On all thy saints to shine.
That so thy wondrous ways
May through the world be known,
Whilst distant lands their tribute pay,
And thy salvation own.
Let diff'ring nations join
To celebrate thy fame;
Let all the world, O Lord, combine
To praise thy glorious name.
O let them shout and sing
With joy and pious mirth,
For thou, the righteous Judge and King,
Shalt govern all the earth.
Let diff'ring nations join
To celebrate thy fame;
Let all the world, O Lord, combine
To praise thy glorious name.
Then shall the teeming ground
A large increase disclose;
And we with plenty shall be crown'd,
Which God, our God, bestows.
Then God upon our land
Shall constant blessings show'r,
And all the world in awe shall stand
Of his resistless pow'r.
Luther's translation
