< Psalms 113 >
1 Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.
Praise ye the LORD! 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, even 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 to its going down, May the LORD'S name 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 the LORD, our God, That dwelleth on high,
6 Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?
That looketh down low Upon the heavens and the earth?
7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,
He raiseth the poor from the dust, And exalteth the needy from the dunghill,
8 To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.
To set him among princes, Even among the princes of his people.
9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!
He causeth the barren woman to dwell in a house, A joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD!
