Hans Leo Hassler (1562–1612)
| Original Text | English Translation |
| Exultate justi, in Domino; rectos decet collaudatio. Confitemini Domino in cithara; in psalterio decem chordarum, psallite illi. Cantate ei canticum novum; bene psallite ei in voci feratione. Quia rectum est verbum Domini, et omnia opera ejus in fide. Diligit misericordiam et judicium, misericordia Domini, plena est terra. |
Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous for the upright is worthy of praise. Sing praises to the Lord with harp, with a psalter of ten strings. Sing to him a new song, Sing praises to him with a loud voice. For the word of the Lord is right, and his works are done in truth. He loves righteousness and judgement, the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord. |
