1. The LORD is king, the peoples tremble; God is enthroned on the cherubim, the earth quakes.

2. The LORD is great on Zion, exalted above all the peoples.

3. Let them praise your great and awesome name: Holy is God!

4. O mighty king, lover of justice, you alone have established fairness; you have created just rule in Jacob.

5. Exalt the LORD, our God; bow down before his footstool; holy is God!

6. Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel among those who called on God's name; they called on the LORD, who answered them.

7. From the pillar of cloud God spoke to them; they kept the decrees, the law they received.

8. O LORD, our God, you answered them; you were a forgiving God, though you punished their offenses.

9. Exalt the LORD, our God; bow down before his holy mountain; holy is the LORD, our God.





O sábio elogia a mulher forte dizendo: os seu dedos manejaram o fuso. A roca é o alvo dos seus desejos. Fie, portanto, cada dia um pouco. Puxe fio a fio até a execução e, infalivelmente, você chegará ao fim. Mas não tenha pressa, pois senão você poderá misturar o fio com os nós e embaraçar tudo.” São Padre Pio de Pietrelcina
