Psalms 113

1 Praise you the LORD. Praise, O you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.

2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for ever more.

Let blessing be on the name of the Lord, from this time and for ever.

3 From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same the LORD’s name is to be praised.

From the coming up of the sun to its going down, the Lord's name is to be praised.

4 The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.

The Lord is high over all nations, and his glory is higher than the heavens.

5 Who is like to the LORD our God, who dwells on high,

Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,

6 Who humbles himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

Looking down on the heavens, and on the earth?

7 He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts the needy out of the dunghill;

He takes the poor man out of the dust, lifting him up from his low position;

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

To give him a place among the rulers, even with the rulers of his people.

9 He makes the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise you the LORD.

He gives the unfertile woman a family, making her a happy mother of children. Give praise to the Lord.
