< Psalms 113 >
1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord, you servants [of his], praise, the name of the Lord.
Praise YAH! Praise, you servants of YHWH. Praise the Name of YHWH.
2 Let the name of the Lord be blessed, from this present time and for ever.
The Name of YHWH is blessed, From now on, and for all time.
3 From the rising of the sun to his setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised.
From the rising of the sun to its going in, The Name of YHWH [is] praised.
4 The Lord is high above all the nations; his glory is above the heavens.
YHWH [is] high above all nations, His glory [is] above the heavens.
5 Who is as the Lord our God? who dwells in the high places,
Who [is] as our God YHWH, He is exalting [Himself] to sit?
6 and [yet] looks upon the low things in heaven, and on the earth:
He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the earth.
7 who lifts up the poor from the earth, and raises up the needy from the dunghill;
He is raising up the poor from the dust, He exalts the needy from a dunghill.
8 to set him with princes, [even] with the princes of his people:
To cause [them] to sit with princes, With the princes of His people.
9 who settles the barren [woman] in a house, [as] a mother rejoicing over children.
Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise YAH!
