< Psalms 113 >
1 Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.
Alleluia. Laudate pueri Dominum: laudate nomen Domini.
2 Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore!
Sit nomen Domini benedictum, ex hoc nunc, et usque in sæculum.
3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised.
A solis ortu usque ad occasum, laudabile nomen Domini.
4 Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
Excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus, et super cælos gloria eius.
5 Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high;
Quis sicut Dominus Deus noster, qui in altis habitat,
6 Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?
et humilia respicit in cælo et in terra?
7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,
Suscitans a terra inopem, et de stercore erigens pauperem:
8 To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.
Ut collocet eum cum principibus, cum principibus populi sui.
9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!
Qui habitare facit sterilem in domo, matrem filiorum lætantem.
