Psalmien 113

1 Halleluja! Ylistäkää, te Herran palvelijat, ylistäkää Herran nimeä.

Praise Yahweh! You people who serve Yahweh, praise him! Praise (him/his name)!

2 Siunattu olkoon Herran nimi nyt ja iankaikkisesti.

Yahweh should be praised now and forever!

3 Auringon noususta sen laskuun saakka olkoon Herran nimi ylistetty.

People who live in the east and people who live in the west, everyone, should praise Yahweh [MTY]!

4 Herra on korkea yli kaikkien pakanakansain, yli taivasten kohoaa hänen kunniansa.

Yahweh rules [MTY] over all the nations, and high in the heavens he shows that his glory is very great.

5 Kuka on niinkuin Herra, meidän Jumalamme, joka korkealla asuu

There is no one [RHQ] who is like Yahweh, our God, who lives/sits/rules in the highest heaven,

6 ja katsoo syvälle-taivaassa ja maassa?

and looks far down through the heavens and sees the [people on] the earth.

7 Hän, joka tomusta nostaa alhaisen, korottaa loasta köyhän

[Sometimes] he lifts poor people up [so that they no longer sit in] the dirt; he helps needy [people so that they no longer sit on] heaps of ashes

8 asettaaksensa hänet ruhtinasten rinnalle, hänen kansansa ruhtinasten rinnalle,

and causes them to [be honored] by sitting next to princes, the sons of the kings [who rule] their people.

9 joka antaa hedelmättömän asua kodissa, iloisena lasten äitinä! Halleluja!

He also enables women who have no children to have a family; he causes them to be happy mothers. Praise Yahweh!
