Psalms 113

1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

Hallelujah. Praise the Lord, you his servants, praise the name of the Lord.

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

The name of the Lord be blessed from now 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 sunrise to sunset is the name of the Lord to be praised.

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

High is the Lord above all nations, above the heavens is his glory.

5 Who [is] like to the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high.

Who is like the Lord our God, seated on high?

6 Who humbleth [himself] to behold [the things that are] in heaven, and in the earth!

He bends down to look at the heavens and earth.

7 He raiseth the poor out of the dust, [and] lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;

He raises the weak from the dust, he lifts the poor from the dunghill,

8 That he may set [him] with princes, [even] with the princes of his people.

and sets them beside the princes, even the princes of his people.

9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [and to be] a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.

He gives the childless woman a home, and makes her the happy mother of children. Hallelujah.
