Translationand the hungry are filled./ While the barren have borne most:/ and the one who had many children is weakened./ The Lord kills and gives life he leads [some] down to Hell and [some] he brings back./ The Lord makes poor and makes wealthy:/ he humbles and exalts./ He lifts the needy from the dust:/ and he raises the poor from the dunghill./ that he may sit with princes:/ and occupy the throne of glory./ For the axes of the earth are the lord’s:/ and he has set the earth upon them./ He will preserve the feet of his holy ones:/ and the wicked shall fall silent in darkness:/ because no man shall prevail by his own strength./ The adversaries of the lord shall be terrified of him: and/ he shall thunder in the heavens on them./ The lord shall judge the ends of the earth:/ and he shall give sovereignty to his king:/ and he shall raise on high the horn of his anointed one./ |

Transcriptionet famelici saturati sunt./ Donec sterilis peperit plurimos:/ et qu[a]e multos habebat filios infirmata est./ D[omi]n[u]s mortificat et uiuificat:/ deducit ad inferos et reducit./ D[omi]n[u]s paup[er]em facit et ditat:/ humiliat et subleuat./ Suscitat de puluere egenu[m]:/ et de stercore eleuat paup[er]em./ Vt sedeat cum principibus:/ et solium glori[a]e teneat./ D[omi]ni eni[m] sunt cardines terr[a]e:/ et posuit sup[er] eos orbem./ Pedes s[an]ctor[um] suor[um] seruabit:/ et impii in tenebris conticescent:/ q[ui]a n[on] in fortitudine sua roborabit[ur] uir./ D[omi]n[u]m formidabunt aduersarii ei[us]: et / sup[er] ipsos in c[a]elis tonabit./ D[omi]n[u]s iudicabit fines terr[a]e:/ et dabit imp[er]iu[m] regi suo:/ et sublimabit cornu [christi] sui./ |
