Benedic anima mea Domino 
 (Sung text for setting by J. Mäntyjärvi)
 See original
Language: Latin 
1  Ipsi David.
   Benedic, anima mea, Domino,
   et omnia quæ intra me sunt nomini sancto ejus.
2  Benedic, anima mea, Domino,
   et noli oblivisci omnes retributiones ejus.
3  Qui propitiatur omnibus iniquitatibus tuis;
   qui sanat omnes infirmitates tuas:
4  qui redimit de interitu vitam tuam;
   qui coronat te in misericordia et miserationibus:
5  qui replet in bonis desiderium tuum; renovabitur ut aquilæ juventus tua:
6   ... 
20 Benedicite Domino, omnes angeli ejus: potentes virtute, facientes verbum illius,
   ad audiendam vocem sermonum ejus.
21 Benedicite Domino, omnes virtutes ejus;
   ministri ejus, qui facitis voluntatem ejus.
22 Benedicite Domino, omnia opera ejus:
   in omni loco dominationis ipsius, benedic, anima mea, Domino.
