Psalms 113

1 Praise the LORD! Praise, you servants of the LORD, praise the LORD’s name.

Alleluia. Laudate pueri Dominum: laudate nomen Domini.

2 Blessed be the LORD’s name, from this time forward and forever more.

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

3 From the rising of the sun to its going down, the LORD’s name is to be praised.

A solis ortu usque ad occasum, laudabile nomen Domini.

4 The LORD is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.

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

5 Who is like the LORD, our God, who has his seat on high,

Quis sicut Dominus Deus noster, qui in altis habitat,

6 who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?

et humilia respicit in caelo et in terra?

7 He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,

Suscitans a terra inopem, et de stercore erigens pauperem:

8 that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.

Ut collocet eum cum principibus, cum principibus populi sui.

9 He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother of children. Praise the LORD!

Qui habitare facit sterilem in domo, matrem filiorum laetantem.
