< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.
Praise ye Jah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.
2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.
The name of Jehovah is blessed, From henceforth, and unto the age.
3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’s name [is] to be praised.
From the rising of the sun unto its going in, Praised [is] the name of Jehovah.
4 The LORD [is] high above all nations, [and] his glory above the heavens.
High above all nations [is] Jehovah, Above the heavens [is] his honour.
5 Who [is] like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high,
Who [is] as Jehovah our God, He is exalting [Himself] to sit?
6 Who humbleth [himself] to behold [the things that are] in heaven, and in the earth!
He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the earth.
7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, [and] lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;
He is raising up from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He exalteth the needy.
8 That he may set [him] with princes, [even] with the princes of his people.
To cause to sit 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 the LORD.
Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise ye Jah!
