< Psalms 113 >
1 Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.
Hallelujah. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.
2 Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore!
Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for ever.
3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised.
From the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof the LORD'S name is to be praised.
4 Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
The LORD is high above all nations, His glory is above the heavens.
5 Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high;
Who is like unto the LORD our God, that is enthroned on high,
6 Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?
That looketh down low upon heaven and upon the earth?
7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,
Who raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the needy out of the dunghill;
8 To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.
That He may set him with princes, even with the princes of His people.
9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!
Who maketh the barren woman to dwell in her house as a joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.
