Music of Joy: #classicalmusic #baroque #catholic #sacredmusic — Laetatus sum (Psalm 122) in F Major for Chorus, Strings & Continuo, RV 607 — Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741) — Rinaldo Alessandrini/Italiano Concerto

Laetatus sum in quae dicta sunt mihi:
in domum Domini ibimus.
Santes erant pedes nostri in atriis tuis, Jerusalem,
Jerusalem, quae aedificatur ut civitas:
cuius participatio eius in idipsum.
Illuc enim ascenderunt tribus, tribus Domini:
testimonium Israel ad confitendum nomini Domini.
Quia illic sederunt sedes in iudicio,
sedes super domum David.
Rogate quae ad pacem sunt Jerusalem:
et abundantia diligentibus te.
Fiat pax in virtue tua:
et abundantia in turribus tuis.
Proper fraters meos
et proximos meos,
loquebar pacem de te;
Proper domum Domini Dei nostri,
quasivi bona tibi.

Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto,
sicut erat principio
et nunc et semper, et in saecula saeculorum.

Amen.

I was glad when they said unto me:
“Let us go into the House of the Lord!”
Our feet are standing within thy gates, O Jerusalem!
Jerusalem, which is built as a city
that is compact together.
For thither the tribes go up,
even the tribes of the Lord,
According to the testimony of Israel,
to give thanks unto the Name of the Lord.
For there is the seat of judgment:
even the seat of the House of David.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
And they that love you shall prosper:
Peace be within thy walls,
And prosperity within they palaces!
For thy brethren’s
and companions’ sakes,
I will say, “Peace be with thee.”
Because of the House of the Lord thy God,
I will seek to do thee good.

Glory be to the Father and the Son: and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning,
is now and ever shall be: world without end.

Amen.
