Psalms 113

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

2 Let the name of the Lord be blessed 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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