Magnificat

• Magnificat ≅ Magnificat

Mon âme exalte le Seigneur,
exulte mon esprit en Dieu, mon Sauveur.
Il s'est penché sur son humble servante,
désormais tous les âges me diront bienheureuse.
Le Puissant fit pour moi des merveilles,
Saint est son nom.
Son amour s'étend d'âge en âge sur ceux qui le craignent.
Déployant la force de son bras,
Il disperse les superbes.
Il renverse les puissants de leurs trônes. Il élève les humbles.
Il comble de biens les affamés, renvoie les riches les mains vides.
Il relève Israël, son serviteur, il se souvient de son amour,
et de la promesse faite à nos pères, en faveur d'Abraham et de sa race, à jamais.

My soul doth magnify the Lord.
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

Magnificat:
More honorable than the Cherubim,
and more glorious beyond compare than the Seraphim,
without corruption you gave birth to God the Word:
True Theotokos, we magnify you.

to them that fear him.

and hath exalted the humble.

and the rich he hath sent empty away.

As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed for ever.
