Psalms 113

1 Alleluya. Children, preise ye the Lord; preise ye the name of the Lord.

Praise the Lord, ye children: praise ye the name of the Lord.

2 The name of the Lord be blessid; fro this tyme now and til in to the world.

Blessed be the name of the Lord, from henceforth now and for ever.

3 Fro the risyng of the sunne til to the goyng doun; the name of the Lord is worthi to be preisid.

From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, the name of the Lord is worthy of praise.

4 The Lord is hiy aboue alle folkis; and his glorie is aboue heuenes.

The Lord is high above all nations; and his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is as oure Lord God, that dwellith in hiye thingis;

Who is as the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high:

6 and biholdith meke thingis in heuene and in erthe?

And looketh down on the low things in heaven and in earth?

7 Reisynge a nedi man fro the erthe; and enhaunsinge a pore man fro drit.

Raising up the needy from the earth, and lifting up the poor out of the dunghill:

8 That he sette hym with princes; with the princes of his puple.

That he may place him with princes, with the princes of his people.

9 Which makith a bareyn womman dwelle in the hous; a glad modir of sones.

Who maketh a barren woman to dwell in a house, the joyful mother of children.
