Psalms 113

1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord, ye servants [of his], praise, the name of the Lord.

Praise ye Jah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.

2 Let the name of the Lord be blessed, from this present time and for ever.

The name of Jehovah is blessed, From henceforth, and unto the age.

3 From the rising of the sun to his setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised.

From the rising of the sun unto its going in, Praised [is] the name of Jehovah.

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

High above all nations [is] Jehovah, Above the heavens [is] his honour.

5 Who is as the Lord our God? who dwells in the high places,

Who [is] as Jehovah our God, He is exalting [Himself] to sit?

6 and [yet] looks upon the low things in heaven, and on the earth:

He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the earth.

7 who lifts up the poor from the earth, and raises up the needy from the dunghill;

He is raising up from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He exalteth the needy.

8 to set him with princes, [even] with the princes of his people:

To cause to sit with princes, With the princes of His people.

9 who settles the barren [woman] in a house, [as] a mother rejoicing over children.

Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise ye Jah!
