Psalms 113

1 Hallelujah! Give praise, O servants of the LORD; praise the name of the LORD.

Praise ye Jah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.

2 Blessed be the name of the LORD both now and forevermore.

The name of Jehovah is blessed, From henceforth, and unto the age.

3 From where the sun rises to where it sets, the name of the LORD is praised.

From the rising of the sun unto its going in, Praised [is] the name of Jehovah.

4 The LORD is exalted over all the nations, His glory above the heavens.

High above all nations [is] Jehovah, Above the heavens [is] his honour.

5 Who is like the LORD our God, the One enthroned on high?

Who [is] as Jehovah our God, He is exalting [Himself] to sit?

6 He humbles Himself to behold the heavens and the earth.

He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the earth.

7 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the dump

He is raising up from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He exalteth the needy.

8 to seat them with nobles, with the princes of His people.

To cause to sit with princes, With the princes of His people.

9 He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother to her children. Hallelujah!

Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise ye Jah!
