Non Nobis


Psalm 113:9, Vulgate
non nobis Domine non nobis sed nomini tuo da gloriam
Psalm 115:1, King James Bible
Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy and for thy truth's sake.
Psalm 115:1, The Great Bible (1539)
NOT unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy Name give the praise; for thy loving mercy, and for thy truth's sake.
Henry V, Act 4, Scene 8 Henry V
KING HENRY V:
Do we all holy rites;
Let there be sung 'Non nobis' and 'Te Deum;'
The dead with charity enclosed in clay:
And then to Calais; and to England then:
Where ne'er from France arrived more happy men.
