Psalms 113

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

Praise all of you the LORD. Praise, O all of you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

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

Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.

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

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

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

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

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

Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwells on high,

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

Who humbles 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 raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts 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 JAH.

He makes the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise all of you the LORD.
