| 20 | 1 | Unto the end. A psalm for David. | victori canticum David |
| 20 | 2 | In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly. | Domine in fortitudine tua laetabitur rex et in salutari tuo exultabit vehementer |
| 20 | 3 | Thou hast given him his heart's desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips. | desiderium cordis eius dedisti ei et voluntate labiorum eius non fraudasti eum semper |
| 20 | 4 | For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones. | quoniam praevenies eum benedictionibus bonitatis pones in capite eius coronam de lapide pretioso |
| 20 | 5 | He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever. | vitam petivit te et dedisti ei longitudinem dierum in saeculum et in aeternum |
| 20 | 6 | His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him. | magna gloria eius in salutari tuo gloriam et decorem pones super eum |
| 20 | 7 | For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance. | pones enim eum benedictionem sempiternam et hilarabis eum laetitia apud vultum tuum |
| 20 | 8 | For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved. | quia rex confidet in Domino et in misericordia Excelsi non decipietur |
| 20 | 9 | Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee. | inveniet manus tua omnes inimicos tuos dextera tua inveniet odientes te |
| 20 | 10 | Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them. | pones eos ut clibanum ignis in tempore vultus tui Dominus in furore suo praecipitabit eos et devorabit eos ignis |
| 20 | 11 | Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men. | fructum eorum de terra perdes et semen eorum de filiis hominum |
| 20 | 12 | For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish. | quoniam inclinaverunt super te malum cogitaverunt scelus quod non potuerunt |
| 20 | 13 | For thou shalt make them turn their back: in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face. | quia pones eos umerum funes tuos firmabis contra facies eorum |
| 20 | 14 | Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy own strength: we will sing and praise thy power. | exaltare Domine in fortitudine tua cantabimus et psallemus fortitudines tuas |
