Benedíctus es, Dómine, Deus Israël patris nostri, * ab ætérno in ætérnum.	Blessed art thou, O Lord the God of Israel, our father * from eternity to eternity.
Tua est, Dómine, magnificéntia, et poténtia, * et glória, atque victória:	Thine, O Lord, is magnificence, and power, * and glory, and victory:
Et tibi laus: * cuncta enim quæ in cælo sunt, et in terra, tua sunt:	And to thee is praise: * for all that is in heaven, and in earth, is thine:
Tuum, Dómine, regnum, * et tu es super omnes príncipes.	Thine is the kingdom, O Lord, * and thou art above all princes.
Tuæ divítiæ, et tua est glória: * tu domináris ómnium,	Thine are riches, and thine is glory, * thou hast dominion over all,
In manu tua virtus et poténtia: * in manu tua magnitúdo, et impérium ómnium.	In thy hand is power and might: * in thy hand greatness, and the empire of all things.
Nunc ígitur, Deus noster, confitémur tibi, * et laudámus nomen tuum ínclitum.	Now therefore our God we give thanks to thee, * and we praise thy glorious name.
Glória Patri, et Fílio, * et Spirítui Sancto.	Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Ghost.
Sicut erat in princípio, et nunc, et semper, * et in sǽcula sæculórum. Amen.	As it was in the beginning, is now, * and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
