< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise you the LORD. Praise, O you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.
Lover, I Herrens Tjenere, lover Herrens Navn!
2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for ever more.
Lovet være Herrens Navn fra nu og indtil evig Tid!
3 From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same the LORD’s name is to be praised.
Fra Solens Opgang indtil dens Nedgang er Herrens Navn højlovet.
4 The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
Herren er høj over alle Hedninger, hans Herlighed er over Himlene.
5 Who is like to the LORD our God, who dwells on high,
Hvo er som Herren vor Gud? han, som har sat sit Sæde højt;
6 Who humbles himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!
han, som stiger dybt ned for at se, i Himlene og paa Jorden;
7 He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts the needy out of the dunghill;
han, som oprejser den ringe af Støvet, som ophøjer en fattig af Skarnet
8 That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
for at sætte ham hos Fyrster, hos sit Folks Fyrster;
9 He makes the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise you the LORD.
han, som gør, at den ufrugtbare i Huset kommer til at bo som en glad Barnemoder. Halleluja.
