Domine quis habitabit, MH 403 by Johann Michael Haydn — Lyrics
Canticum David. Domine, quis habitabit in tabernaculo tuo?
aut quis requiescet in monte sancto tuo?
Qui ingreditur sine macula, et operatur iustitiam;
qui loquitur veritatem in corde suo:
qui non egit dolum in lingua sua, nec fecit proximo suo malum,
et opprobrium non accepit adversus proximos suos.

About Domine quis habitabit, MH 403
Domine quis habitabit is a sacred setting for SATB choir of a Latin text from the Psalms. Its words, a meditation on righteousness and God's favour, would be fitting for a liturgical occasion or a general devotional concert. The music explores the psalm's questions about who is worthy to dwell with God, and the composer's response. The text describes the virtuous life that pleases God, including integrity, honesty and compassion. This responsorial psalm setting offers a profound musical reflection on ethical living and divine blessing, suitable for contemplation and inspired singing.
