Psalmus 23 (24)
Language: Latin 
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.
