Original text and translations
Latin text
Dominus, fortitudo plebis suae, et protector salutarium Christi sui est:
salvum fac populum tuum, Domine, et benedic hereditati tuae, et rege eos usque in saeculum.
Ad te, Domine, clamabo, Deus meus, ne sileas a me:
nequando taceas a me, et assimilabot descendentibus in lacum.
English translation
The Lord is the strength of His people, and the protector of the salvation of His anointed:
save, O Lord, Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance, and rule them for ever.
Unto Thee will I cry, O Lord: O my God, be not Thou silent to me,
lest if Thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
