< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise ye the LORD! Praise, O ye servants of the LORD! Praise the name of the LORD!
Halleluyah ·praise Yah·! Praise, you servants of Adonai, praise Adonai’s name.
2 Blessed be the name of the LORD From this time forth, even for ever!
Blessed be Adonai’s name, from this time forward and forever more.
3 From the rising of the sun to its going down, May the LORD'S name be praised!
From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, Adonai’s name is to be praised.
4 The LORD is high above all nations; His glory is above the heavens.
Adonai is high above all nations, his kavod ·weighty glory· above the heavens.
5 Who is like the LORD, our God, That dwelleth on high,
Who is like Adonai, our God, who has his seat on high,
6 That looketh down low Upon the heavens and the earth?
Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
7 He raiseth the poor from the dust, And exalteth the needy from the dunghill,
He raises up the poor out of the dust. Lifts up the needy from the ash heap;
8 To set him among princes, Even among the princes of his people.
that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 He causeth the barren woman to dwell in a house, A joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD!
He settles the barren woman in her home, as a joyful mother of children. Halleluyah ·praise Yah·!
