< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise the LORD. Praise, you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.
Praise ye YHWH. Praise, O ye servants of YHWH, praise the name of YHWH.
2 Blessed be the name of the LORD, from this time forth and forevermore.
Blessed be the name of YHWH from this time forth and for evermore.
3 From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, The LORD's name is to be praised.
From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same YHWH 's name is to be praised.
4 The LORD is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
YHWH is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like the LORD, our God, who has his seat on high,
Who is like unto YHWH our Elohim, who dwelleth on high,
6 Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!
7 He raises up the poor out of the dust. Lifts up the needy from the ash heap;
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;
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 the LORD.
He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye YHWH.
