Psalms 113

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

Hallelujah. Praise the Lord, you his servants, praise the name of the Lord.

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

The name of the Lord be blessed from now and for evermore.

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

From sunrise to sunset is the name of the Lord to be praised.

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

High is the Lord above all nations, 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, seated on high?

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

He bends down to look at the heavens and earth.

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

He raises the weak from the dust, he lifts the poor from the dunghill,

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

and sets them beside the princes, even the princes of his people.

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

He gives the childless woman a home, and makes her the happy mother of children. Hallelujah.
