Psalms 113

1 Praise Yah! Praise, you servants of Yahweh, praise Yahweh’s name.

Praise you the LORD. Praise, O you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

2 Blessed be Yahweh’s name, from this time forward and forever more.

Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for ever more.

3 From the rising of the sun to its going down, Yahweh’s name is to be praised.

From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same the LORD’s name is to be praised.

4 Yahweh is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.

The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is like Yahweh, our God, who has his seat on high,

Who is like to the LORD our God, who dwells on high,

6 who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?

Who humbles himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

7 He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,

He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts the needy out of the dunghill;

8 that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.

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

9 He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother of children. Praise Yah!

He makes the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise you the LORD.
