< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise JAH. Praise, you servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.
Hallelujah. Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise ye the name of the Lord.
2 Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and forevermore.
Let the name of the Lord be blessed from this time forth and for evermore.
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 unto his going down the name of the Lord is praised.
4 Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
High above all nations is the Lord, above the heavens is his glory.
5 Who is like Jehovah, our God, who has his seat on high,
Who is like the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high?
6 Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
Who condescendeth to view what is done in the heavens, and on the earth?
7 He raises up the poor out of the dust. Lifts up the needy from the ash heap;
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.
That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 He settles the barren woman in her home, as a joyful mother of children. Praise JAH.
He causeth the barren woman to dwell in the midst of [her] household, the joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.
