< Psalms 113 >
1 Hallelujah! Give praise, O servants of the LORD; praise the name of the LORD.
Praise Yah! Praise, you servants of Yahweh, praise Yahweh’s name.
2 Blessed be the name of the LORD both now and forevermore.
Blessed be Yahweh’s name, from this time forward and forever more.
3 From where the sun rises to where it sets, the name of the LORD is praised.
From the rising of the sun to its going down, Yahweh’s name is to be praised.
4 The LORD is exalted over all the nations, His glory above the heavens.
Yahweh is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like the LORD our God, the One enthroned on high?
Who is like Yahweh, our God, who has his seat on high,
6 He humbles Himself to behold the heavens and the earth.
who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
7 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the dump
He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,
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 settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother of children. Praise Yah!
