Haec est domus domini firmiter aedificata De qua scriptum est: Domus mea, domus orationis vocabitur. Alleluia. Variant 3 Nam fundata est domus Domini supra verticem montium et venient ad eam omnes gentes. Alleluja. Variant 4 In hymnis et confessionibus benedicebant Dominum et in ore eorum dulcis resonabat sonus.
