E...t iustitia illius infilios filiorum

If you were to break this up into individual words, and punctuate it, it would read:

	ab eterno et usque in aeter-
	num super timentes eum:
E	t iustitia illius in filios filiorum
	his qui seruant testamentum eius.
E	t memores sunt mandatorum
	ipsius ad faciendum ea.

From the Douai Translation of the Vulgate:

......... [But the mercy of the Lord is]
[17]... from eternity and unto
......... eternity upon them that fear Him:
......... And His justice unto children's children
[18]....to such as keep His covenant
......... And are mindful of His commandments
......... to do them.
