Si bona suscépimus de manu Dómini,
   mala autem quare non sustineámus?
Nudus egréssus sum de útero matris meae,
   et nudus revértar illuc.
Dóminus dedit, Dóminus ábstulit.
Sicut Dómino plácuit, ita factum est:
   sit nomen Dómini benedíctum,
   ex hoc nunc et usque in sáeculum.

Tribulárer si nescírem misericórdias tuas, Dómine:
   in misericórdia tua semper sperávi.
Cum enim irátus fúeris, misericórdiae recordáberis.
Misericórdia tua, Dómine, magna est super me,
   et misericórdia tua subsequétur me
   ómnibus diébus vitae meae.

English.png English translation

If we have received good things at the hand of the Lord,
   why then should we not endure misfortune?
Naked came I out of my mother's womb,
   and naked shall I return thither.
The Lord hath given, and the Lord hath taken away.
As it hath pleased the Lord, so hath it been done:
   blessed be the Name of the Lord,
   from this time forth and for evermore.

I should be troubled, were I ignorant of Thy mercies, Lord:
   I have always trusted in Thy mercy.
For when Thou art angry, Thou wilt remember mercy.
Great is Thy mercy, Lord, upon me,
   and Thy mercy shall follow me
   all the days of my life.
