< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise the Lord! Praise him, servants of the Lord! Praise the Lord's as he is!
Halleluja! Pris, I Herrens tjenere, pris Herrens navn!
2 Let the Lord's nature be praised, now and forever.
Herrens navn være lovet fra nu og til evig tid;
3 Let everyone everywhere, from the east to the west, praise the Lord as he is!
fra sol i opgang til sol i bjærge være Herrens navn lovpriset!
4 The Lord rules supreme over all nations; his glory extends higher than the heavens.
Over alle folk er Herren ophøjet, hans herlighed højt over himlene.
5 Who is like the Lord our God? He is the one who lives on high, seated on his throne.
Hvo er som HERREN vor Gud, som rejste sin Trone i det høje
6 He has to stoop low to look down on the heavens and the earth.
og skuer ned i det dybe - i Himlene og på Jorden -
7 He helps the poor up from the dust; he lifts the needy from the dump.
som rejser den ringe af Støvet, løfter den fattige op af Skarnet
8 He gives them positions of honor together important leaders, with leaders of his own people.
og sætter ham mellem Fyrster, imellem sit Folks Fyrster,
9 He makes the childless woman happy in her home by giving her children. Praise the Lord!
han, som lader barnløs Hustru sidde som lykkelig Barnemoder!
