Original text and translations

Latin text Salvum fac populum tuum, Domine, et benedic hereditati tuae. Et rege eos, et extolle illos usque in aeternum. Per singulos dies benedicimus te: et laudamus nomen tuum in saeculum, et in saeculum saeculi.

English translation O Lord, save thy people, and bless thine heritage. Govern them, and lift them up for ever. Day by day we magnify thee: and we worship thy Name, ever world without end.
