< Psalms 113 >

1 Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.
Praise ye Yah! Praise, O ye servants of Yahweh, Praise the Name of Yahweh;
2 Let blessing be on the name of the Lord, from this time and for ever.
Be the Name of Yahweh blessed, henceforth, even to times age-abiding.
3 From the coming up of the sun to its going down, the Lord's name is to be praised.
From the rising of the sun unto the going in thereof, Worthy to be praised, is the Name of Yahweh:
4 The Lord is high over all nations, and his glory is higher than the heavens.
High above all nations, is Yahweh, Above the heavens, his glory.
5 Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,
Who is like Yahweh our God? that goeth on high to dwell,
6 Looking down on the heavens, and on the earth?
That cometh down low to look, through the heavens and through the earth;
7 He takes the poor man out of the dust, lifting him up from his low position;
That raiseth, out of the dust, the poor, From the dunghill, uplifteth the needy;
8 To give him a place among the rulers, even with the rulers of his people.
To give a seat with nobles, with the nobles of his people!
9 He gives the unfertile woman a family, making her a happy mother of children. Give praise to the Lord.
Causing the barren woman to dwell in a household, A mother of sons in her joy! Praise ye Yah.
