Psalms 113

1 Praise JAH. Praise, you servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.

Alleluia. Praise the Lord, children. Praise the name of the Lord.

2 Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and forevermore.

Blessed is the name of the Lord, from this time forward and even forever.

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

From the rising of the sun, even to its setting, praiseworthy is the name of the Lord.

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

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

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

Who is like the Lord, our God, who dwells on high,

6 Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?

and who gazes upon the humble things in heaven and on earth?

7 He raises up the poor out of the dust. Lifts up the needy from the ash heap;

He lifts up the needy from the ground, and he urges the poor away from filth,

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

so that he may place him with the leaders, with the leaders of his people.

9 He settles the barren woman in her home, as a joyful mother of children. Praise JAH.

He causes a barren woman to live in a house, as the joyful mother of sons.
