Psalms 113

1 Hallelujah. Praise the Lord, you his servants, praise the name of the Lord.

Alleluia. Laudate pueri Dominum: laudate nomen Domini.

2 The name of the Lord be blessed from now and for evermore.

Sit nomen Domini benedictum, ex hoc nunc, et usque in sæculum.

3 From sunrise to sunset is the name of the Lord to be praised.

A solis ortu usque ad occasum, laudabile nomen Domini.

4 High is the Lord above all nations, above the heavens is his glory.

Excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus, et super cælos gloria eius.

5 Who is like the Lord our God, seated on high?

Quis sicut Dominus Deus noster, qui in altis habitat,

6 He bends down to look at the heavens and earth.

et humilia respicit in cælo et in terra?

7 He raises the weak from the dust, he lifts the poor from the dunghill,

Suscitans a terra inopem, et de stercore erigens pauperem:

8 and sets them beside the princes, even the princes of his people.

Ut collocet eum cum principibus, cum principibus populi sui.

9 He gives the childless woman a home, and makes her the happy mother of children. Hallelujah.

Qui habitare facit sterilem in domo, matrem filiorum lætantem.
