< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise YAH! Praise, you servants of YHWH. Praise the Name of YHWH.
Praise Yah! Praise, you servants of Yahweh, praise Yahweh’s name.
2 The Name of YHWH is blessed, From now on, and for all time.
Blessed be Yahweh’s name, from this time forward and forever more.
3 From the rising of the sun to its going in, The Name of YHWH [is] praised.
From the rising of the sun to its going down, Yahweh’s name is to be praised.
4 YHWH [is] high above all nations, His glory [is] above the heavens.
Yahweh is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
5 Who [is] as our God YHWH, He is exalting [Himself] to sit?
Who is like Yahweh, our God, who has his seat on high,
6 He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the earth.
who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
7 He is raising up the poor from the dust, He exalts the needy from a dunghill.
He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,
8 To cause [them] to sit with princes, With the princes of His people.
that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise YAH!
He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother of children. Praise Yah!
