Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.

Psalm 48:9-10,1 [Latin Vulgate: Psalmi 47:10-11,2]

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.

Exodus 32:11,13-14 [Latin]

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.

Colossians 3:1-4

1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory

Psalm 40:1-3

1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

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.

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?”]

John 16:24,27 [Latin]

24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God.

24 Usque modo non petistis quidquam in nomine meo: petite, et accipietis, ut gaudium vestrum sit plenum.

27 ipse enim Pater amat vos, quia vos me amastis, et credidistis, quia ego a Deo exivi.

After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Sic ergo vos orabitis: Pater noster, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum.

10 Adveniat regnum tuum; fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra.

Psalm 47:1-5 [Latin Vulgate: Psalm 46:2-6]

1 O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.

For the Lord most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.

He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.

He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.

Omnes gentes, plaudite manibus; jubilate Deo in voce exsultationis: quoniam Dominus excelsus, terribilis, rex magnus super omnem terram. Subjecit populos nobis, et gentes sub pedibus nostris. Elegit nobis haereditatem suam; speciem Jacob quam dilexit. Ascendit Deus in jubilo, et Dominus in voce tubae.

A depiction of the parable of talents, showing two men brining their money back to their master (1712 woodcut)

Matthew 25:20b-21 [Latin]

20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

21 Ait illi dominus ejus: Euge serve bone, et fidelis: quia super pauca fuisti fidelis, super multa te constituam; intra in gaudium domini tui.

20 Et accedens qui quinque talenta acceperat, obtulit alia quinque talenta, dicens: Domine, quinque talenta tradidisti mihi, ecce alia quinque superlucratus sum.
