Original text and translations

Latin text

Benedicat te Dominus in virtute sua
et tribuat tibi cordis affectum:
ut vinea tua secus decursus aquarum reddat odorem suavitatis.

Dextera eius apprehendat collum tuum et sinistra eius in sinu tuo.

Det capiti tuo coronam gloriae: ut non deficiat laus tua de ore hominum.
Per singulos dies benedicam te Domine.
