29:2 Exaltabo te, Domine, quoniam suscepisti me, nec delectasti inimicos meos super me.

29:5 Sing to the Lord, O ye his saints: and give praise to the memory of his holiness.

29:6 Quoniam ira in indignatione ejus, et vita in voluntate ejus : ad vesperum demorabitur fletus, et ad matutinum lætitia.

29:6 For wrath is in his indignation; and life in his good will. In the evening weeping shall have place, and in the morning gladness.

29:9 To thee, O Lord, will I cry: and I will make supplication to my God.

29:10 Quæ utilitas in sanguine meo, dum descendo in corruptionem ? numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis, aut annuntiabit veritatem tuam ?

29:10 What profit is there in my blood, whilst I go down to corruption? Shall dust confess to thee, or declare thy truth?

29:12 Convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi ; conscidisti saccum meum, et circumdedisti me lætitia :

29:12 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into joy: thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness:

29:13 ut cantet tibi gloria mea, et non compungar. Domine Deus meus, in æternum confitebor tibi.

29:13 To the end that my glory may sing to thee, and I may not regret: O Lord my God, I will give praise to thee for ever.
