Translation of the Psalm

Question:

What is the English translation of "ad deum qui laetificat juventutem meam"?

Answer:

The translation of this phrase from Psalm 42 in St. Jerome’s Vulgate Latin Bible is “to the God who gives joy to my youth.” It is now translated in the Neo-vulgate Latin used for liturgical purposes in the ordinary form of the Latin rite as Psalm 43 (using the Hebrew enumeration of the Psalms) and translates “to the God of the joy of my exaltation.”
