Psalms 113

1 Hallelujah. Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise ye the name of the Lord.

Praise ye Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.

2 Let the name of the Lord be blessed from this time forth and for evermore.

Blessed be the name of Jehovah from this time forth and for evermore.

3 From the rising of the sun unto his going down the name of the Lord is praised.

From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same Jehovah's name is to be praised.

4 High above all nations is the Lord, above the heavens is his glory.

Jehovah is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is like the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high?

Who is like Jehovah our God who has his seat on high,

6 Who condescendeth to view what is done in the heavens, and on the earth?

and yet looks upon the low things in heaven and in the earth.

7 He raiseth up out of the dust the poor, from the dunghill he lifteth up the needy:

He raises up a poor man out of the dust, and lifts up a needy man from the dunghill,

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

that he may set him with rulers, even with the rulers of his people.

9 He causeth the barren woman to dwell in the midst of [her] household, the joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.

He makes the barren woman to keep house, a joyful mother of sons. Praise ye Jehovah.
