5 Who is like unto the LORD our God, that is enthroned on high,
Who is like the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high?
6 That looketh down low upon heaven and upon the earth?
Who condescendeth to view what is done in the heavens, and on the earth?
7 Who raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the needy out of the dunghill;
He raiseth up out of the dust the poor, from the dunghill he lifteth up the needy:
8 That He may set him with princes, even with the princes of His people.
That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 Who maketh the barren woman to dwell in her house as a joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.
He causeth the barren woman to dwell in the midst of [her] household, the joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.
