< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise Yahweh. Praise him, you servants of Yahweh; praise the name of Yahweh.
Alleluja. [Laudate, pueri, Dominum; laudate nomen Domini.
2 Blessed be the name of Yahweh, both now and forevermore.
Sit nomen Domini benedictum ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
3 From the rising of the sun to its setting, Yahweh's name should be praised.
A solis ortu usque ad occasum laudabile nomen Domini.
4 Yahweh is exalted above all nations, and his glory reaches above the skies.
Excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus, et super cælos gloria ejus.
5 Who is like Yahweh our God, who has his seat on high,
Quis sicut Dominus Deus noster, qui in altis habitat,
6 who looks down at the sky and at the earth?
et humilia respicit in cælo et in terra?
7 He raises up the poor out of the dirt and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,
Suscitans a terra inopem, et de stercore erigens pauperem:
8 so that he may seat him with princes, with the princes of his people.
ut collocet eum cum principibus, cum principibus populi sui.
9 He gives a home to the barren woman of the house, he makes her a joyful mother of children. Praise Yahweh!
Qui habitare facit sterilem in domo, matrem filiorum lætantem.]
