< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise the Lord, ye children: praise ye the name of the Lord.
alleluia laudate pueri Dominum laudate nomen Domini
2 Blessed be the name of the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.
sit nomen Domini benedictum ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum
3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the name of the Lord is worthy of praise.
a solis ortu usque ad occasum laudabile nomen Domini
4 The Lord is high above all nations; and his glory above the heavens.
excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus super caelos gloria eius
5 Who is as the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high:
quis sicut Dominus Deus noster qui in altis habitat
6 And looketh down on the low things in heaven and in earth?
et humilia respicit in caelo et in terra
7 Raising up the needy from the earth, and lifting up the poor out of the dunghill:
suscitans a terra inopem et de stercore erigens pauperem
8 That he may place him with princes, with the princes of his people.
ut conlocet eum cum principibus cum principibus populi sui
9 Who maketh a barren woman to dwell in a house, the joyful mother of children.
qui habitare facit sterilem in domo matrem filiorum laetantem
