Fifth Antiphon
Omnes collaudant Nomen Tuum et dicunt : Benedictus qui venit in Nomine Domini : Hosanna in excelsis.
Psalm 147
Lauda, Jerusalem, Dominum : lauda Deum tuum, Sion.
Quod firmavit seras portarum tuarum : benedixit filiis tuis in te.
Composuit fines tuos in pace : medulla tritici satiat te.
Emittit eloquium suum in terram : velociter currit verbum ejus.
Dat nivem sicut lanam : pruinam sicut cinerem spargit.
Projicit glaciem siam ut frustula panis : coram frigore ejus aquae rigescunt.
Emittit verbum suum et liquefacit eas : flare jubet ventum suum et fluunt aquae.
Annuntiavit verbum suum Jacob : statuta et praecepta sua Israel.
Non fecit ita ulli nationi : praecepta sua non manifestavit eis.
Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto.
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.
Omnes collaudant Nomen Tuum et dicunt : Benedictus qui venit in Nomine Domini : Hosanna in excelsis.
English translation
All praise Your Name highly and say, “Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest!”
Psalm 147
Praise the Lord, o Jerusalem, praise your God, o Zion.
Because He had strengthened the bolts of your gates, He had blessed your children within you.
Who had placed peace in your borders and filled you with the fat of corn.
Who sends forth His speech to the earth, His word runs swiftly.
Who gives snow like wool, scatters frost like ashes.
He sends His crystal like morsels, who shall stand before the face of His cold?
He shall send out His word and shall melt them, His wind shall blow and the waters shall run.
Who declares His word to Jacob, His justices and His judgments to Israel.
He had not done in like manner to every nation, and His judgments He had not made manifest to them.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
All praise Your Name highly and say, “Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord, Hosanna in the highest!”

Seventh Antiphon
Ave, Rex noster, Fili David, Redemptor mundi, quem prophetae praedixerunt Salvatorem domui Israel esse venturum.

Hail, our King, o Son of David, o world’s Redeemer, whom prophets did foretell as the Saviour to come of the house of Israel.

Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!
