Psalms 113

1 Praise Yahweh. Praise him, you servants of Yahweh; praise the name of Yahweh.

Praise ye Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.

2 Blessed be the name of Yahweh, both now and forevermore.

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

3 From the rising of the sun to its setting, Yahweh's name should be praised.

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

4 Yahweh is exalted above all nations, and his glory reaches above the skies.

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

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

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

6 who looks down at the sky and at the earth?

and yet looks upon the low things in heaven and in the earth.

7 He raises up the poor out of the dirt and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,

He raises up a poor man out of the dust, and lifts up a needy man from the dunghill,

8 so that he may seat him with princes, with the princes of his people.

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

9 He gives a home to the barren woman of the house, he makes her a joyful mother of children. Praise Yahweh!

He makes the barren woman to keep house, a joyful mother of sons. Praise ye Jehovah.
