  3. Mare vidit, et fugit: * Jordánis convérsus est retrórsum.

  10. Super misericórdia tua, et veritáte tua: * nequándo dicant gentes: Ubi est Deus eórum?
  11. Deus autem noster in cælo: * ómnia quæcúmque vóluit, fecit.
  12. Simulácra géntium argéntum, et aurum, * ópera mánuum hóminum.
  13. Os habent, et non loquéntur: * óculos habent, et non vidébunt.
  14. Aures habent, et non áudient: * nares habent, et non odorábunt.
  15. Manus habent, et non palpábunt: † pedes habent, et non ambulábunt: * non clamábunt in gútture suo.
  16. Símiles illis fiant qui fáciunt ea: * et omnes qui confídunt in eis.
  17. Domus Israël sperávit in Dómino: * adjútor eórum et protéctor eórum est,
  18. Domus Aaron sperávit in Dómino: * adjútor eórum et protéctor eórum est,
  19. Qui timent Dóminum, speravérunt in Dómino: * adjútor eórum et protéctor eórum est.

  21. Benedíxit dómui Israël: * benedíxit dómui Aaron.
  22. Benedíxit ómnibus, qui timent Dóminum, * pusíllis cum majóribus.
  23. Adíciat Dóminus super vos: * super vos, et super fílios vestros.
  24. Benedícti vos a Dómino, * qui fecit cælum, et terram.
  25. Cælum cæli Dómino: * terram autem dedit fíliis hóminum.
  26. Non mórtui laudábunt te, Dómine: * neque omnes, qui descéndunt in inférnum.
