From the
Great Bible,
1540 edition (known as
Cranmer's Bible). Set in the
Book of Common Prayer,
1662, for
Morning Prayer on the twenty-sixth day of the month.
Justus es, Domine.
Righteous art thou, O Lord : and true is thy judgement.
138 The testimonies that thou hast commanded : are exceeding
righteous and true.
139 My zeal hath even consumed me : because mine enemies have
forgotten thy words.
140 Thy word is tried to the uttermost : and thy servant loveth it.
141 I am small, and of no reputation : yet do I not forget thy
commandments.
142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness : and thy law
is the truth.
143 Trouble and heaviness have taken hold upon me : yet is my delight
in thy commandments.
144 The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting : O grant me
understanding, and I shall live.
From the
Vulgate, where it is listed, according to the
Catholic manner, as
Psalm 118.:
Iustus es Domine et rectum iudicium tuum.
Praecepisti iustitiam testimonii tui et veritatem nimis.
Consumpsit me zelus meus quia obliti sunt verborum tuorum hostes mei.
Probatus sermo tuus nimis et servus tuus dilexit illum.
Parvulus ego sum et contemptibilis sed praecepta tua non sum oblitus.
Iustitia tua iustitia sempiterna et lex tua veritas.
Tribulatio et angustia invenerunt me mandata tua voluntas mea.
Iusta testimonia tua semper doce me et vivam.
The psalm in either case may be followed by the
Gloria Patri.
