< Psalms 113 >
1 Praise ye Jah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.
Hallelujah. Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise ye the name of the Lord.
2 The name of Jehovah is blessed, From henceforth, and unto the age.
Let the name of the Lord be blessed 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 his going down the name of the Lord is praised.
4 High above all nations [is] Jehovah, Above the heavens [is] his honour.
High above all nations is the Lord, above the heavens is his glory.
5 Who [is] as Jehovah our God, He is exalting [Himself] to sit?
Who is like the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high?
6 He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the earth.
Who condescendeth to view what is done in 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 out of the dust the poor, from the dunghill he lifteth up the needy:
8 To cause to sit with princes, With the princes of His people.
That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise ye Jah!
He causeth the barren woman to dwell in the midst of [her] household, the joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.
