< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise ye Jah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.
Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.
2 The name of Jehovah is blessed, From henceforth, and unto the age.
Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore!
3 From the rising of the sun unto its going in, Praised [is] the name of Jehovah.
From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised.
4 High above all nations [is] Jehovah, Above the heavens [is] his honour.
Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
5 Who [is] as Jehovah our God, He is exalting [Himself] to sit?
Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high;
6 He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the earth.
Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?
7 He is raising up from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He exalteth the needy.
He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,
8 To cause to sit with princes, With the princes of His people.
To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.
9 Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise ye Jah!
He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!
