Psalms 113

1 Praise the LORD. Praise, you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

Hallelujah! Give praise, O servants of the LORD; praise the name of the LORD.

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

Blessed be the name of the LORD both now and forevermore.

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

From where the sun rises to where it sets, the name of the LORD is praised.

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

The LORD is exalted over all the nations, His glory above the heavens.

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

Who is like the LORD our God, the One enthroned on high?

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

He humbles Himself to behold the heavens and the earth.

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

He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the dump

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

to seat them with nobles, with the princes of His people.

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

He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother to her children. Hallelujah!
