Psalms 113

1 Praise the Lord, ye children: praise ye the name of the Lord.

Praise ye Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.

2 Blessed be the name of the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.

Blessed be the name of Jehovah from this time forth and for evermore.

3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the name of the Lord is worthy of praise.

From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same Jehovah's name is to be praised.

4 The Lord is high above all nations; and his glory above the heavens.

Jehovah is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is as the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high:

Who is like Jehovah our God who has his seat on high,

6 And looketh down on the low things in heaven and in earth?

and yet looks upon the low things in heaven and in the earth.

7 Raising up the needy from the earth, and lifting up the poor out of the dunghill:

He raises up a poor man out of the dust, and lifts up a needy man from the dunghill,

8 That he may place him with princes, with the princes of his people.

that he may set him with rulers, even with the rulers of his people.

9 Who maketh a barren woman to dwell in a house, the joyful mother of children.

He makes the barren woman to keep house, a joyful mother of sons. Praise ye Jehovah.
