Psalmorum 113

1 alleluia laudate pueri Dominum laudate nomen Domini

Praise ye Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.

2 sit nomen Domini benedictum ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum

Blessed be the name of Jehovah from this time forth and for evermore.

3 a solis ortu usque ad occasum laudabile nomen Domini

From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same Jehovah's name is to be praised.

4 excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus super caelos gloria eius

Jehovah is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.

5 quis sicut Dominus Deus noster qui in altis habitat

Who is like Jehovah our God who has his seat on high,

6 et humilia respicit in caelo et in terra

and yet looks upon the low things in heaven and in the earth.

7 suscitans a terra inopem et de stercore erigens pauperem

He raises up a poor man out of the dust, and lifts up a needy man from the dunghill,

8 ut conlocet eum cum principibus cum principibus populi sui

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

9 qui habitare facit sterilem in domo matrem filiorum laetantem

He makes the barren woman to keep house, a joyful mother of sons. Praise ye Jehovah.
