“Non nobis Domine, non nobis, sed nomini tuo da gloriam”
It was the motto of the Knights Templar and today it is the motto of the Catholic Templars, meaning: “Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory.”
The text is a translation of the middle verses of Psalm 113 (Vulgate) or of the opening of Psalm 115 (according to Hebrew numbering) — Psalm 114 of the Bible.
