< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise ye YHWH. Praise, O ye servants of YHWH, praise the name of YHWH.
Praise Yahweh. Praise him, you servants of Yahweh; praise the name of Yahweh.
2 Blessed be the name of YHWH from this time forth and for evermore.
Blessed be the name of Yahweh, both now and forevermore.
3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same YHWH 's name is to be praised.
From the rising of the sun to its setting, Yahweh's name should be praised.
4 YHWH is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
Yahweh is exalted above all nations, and his glory reaches above the skies.
5 Who is like unto YHWH our Elohim, who dwelleth on high,
Who is like Yahweh our God, who has his seat on high,
6 Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!
who looks down at the sky and at the earth?
7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;
He raises up the poor out of the dirt and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,
8 That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
so that he may seat him with princes, with the princes of his people.
9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye YHWH.
He gives a home to the barren woman of the house, he makes her a joyful mother of children. Praise Yahweh!
