Texts and Translations

Latin text 1  Exultavit cor meum in Domino exaltatum est cornu meum in Domino dilatatum est os meum super inimicos meos quia laetata sum in salutari tuo. 2  Non est sanctus ut est Dominus neque enim est alius extra te et non est fortis sicut Deus noster.

English translation 1  My heart rejoiceth in the Lord, mine horn is exalted in the Lord: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in thy salvation. 2  There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God.
