< Psalms 113 >

1 Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.
Praise the LORD! Praise, you servants of the LORD, praise the LORD’s name.
2 Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore!
Blessed be the LORD’s name, from this time forward and forever more.
3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised.
From the rising of the sun to its going down, the LORD’s name is to be praised.
4 Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
The LORD is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high;
Who is like the LORD, our God, who has his seat on high,
6 Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?
who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,
He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,
8 To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.
that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.
9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!
He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother of children. Praise the LORD!
