Sit nomen Domini benedictum, * ex hoc nunc et usque in sæculum.
(Blessed be the name of the Lord: from henceforth, now, and forever.)
A solis ortu usque ad occasum, * laudabile nomen Domini.
(From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same: the name of the Lord is worthy of praise.)
Excelsus super omnes gentes Dominus: * et super cœlos gloria ejus.
(The Lord is high above all nations: and His glory above the heavens.)
Quis sicut Dominus Deus noster, qui in altis habitat: * et humilia respicit in cœlo et in terra?
(Who is like the Lord our God, Who dwelleth on high: and looketh down on the low things in heaven and in earth?)
Suscitans a terra inopem, * et de stercore erigens pauperem;
