< Psalms 113 >
1 Hallelujah! Give praise, O servants of the LORD; praise the name of the LORD.
Praise ye YHWH. Praise, O ye servants of YHWH, praise the name of YHWH.
2 Blessed be the name of the LORD both now and forevermore.
Blessed be the name of YHWH from this time forth and for evermore.
3 From where the sun rises to where it sets, the name of the LORD is praised.
From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same YHWH 's name is to be praised.
4 The LORD is exalted over all the nations, His glory above the heavens.
YHWH is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like the LORD our God, the One enthroned on high?
Who is like unto YHWH our Elohim, who dwelleth on high,
6 He humbles Himself to behold the heavens and the earth.
Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!
7 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the dump
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;
8 to seat them with nobles, with the princes of His people.
That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother to her children. Hallelujah!
He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye YHWH.
