| Original Text | English Translation |
| Cantate Domino canticum novum; laus ejus in ecclesia sanctorum. Laetetur Israel in eo qui fecit eum, et filiae Syon exultent in rege suo. Laudent nomen ejus in tympano et choro: in psalterio psalant ei. |
O sing ye to the Lord, sing ye a new song; Hie praise is in the company of his saints. Let all of Israel rejoice now in him who made us, let children of Zion rejoice now and praise Jehovah. Let them praise Him forever, with tymbrel and harp and dancing: let everything praise God. |
