9 We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple.
10 According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.
1 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.
Suscepimus, Deus, misericordiam tuam in medio templi tui. Secundum nomen tuum, Deus, sic et laus tua in fines terrae; justitia plena est dextera tua. Magnus Dominus et laudabilis nimis, in civitate Dei nostri, in monte sancto ejus.

11 But Moses besought the Lord his God, saying: Why, O Lord, is thy indignation kindled against thy people, [music text: “Let the anger of Thy soul be appeased:”] whom thou hast brought out of the land of Egypt, with great power, and with a mighty hand?
13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou sworest [music text: “that Thou wouldst give the land flowing with milk and honey.”] by thy own self, saying: I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven: and this whole land that I have spoken of, I will give to you seed, and you shall possess it for ever.
14 And the Lord was appeased from doing the evil which he had spoken against his people.
Precatus est Moyses in conspectu Domini Dei sui, et dixit: Quare, Domine, irasceris in populo tuo: parce irae animae tuae: memento Abraham, Isaac, et Jacob, quibus jurasti dare terram fluentem lac et mel. Et placatus est Dominus de malignitate, quam dixit facere populo suo.
1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth [lyrics: “I will sing, sing a new song” – see also Psalm 96:1], even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and […”and hear” in U2 song] fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
[Also, from lyrics: “How long to sing this song?”]
