< Psalms 113 >

1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord, you servants [of his], praise, the name of the Lord.
Lwanj pou Seyè a! Nou menm k'ap sèvi Seyè a, fè lwanj li!
2 Let the name of the Lord be blessed, from this present time and for ever.
Se pou nou nonmen non l' depi koulye a epi pou tout tan tout tan.
3 From the rising of the sun to his setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised.
Depi kote solèy leve jouk kote solèy kouche, se pou yo fè lwanj Seyè a!
4 The Lord is high above all the nations; his glory is above the heavens.
Seyè a dominen sou tout nasyon yo. Pouvwa li moute pi wo pase syèl la.
5 Who is as the Lord our God? who dwells in the high places,
Pa gen tankou Seyè a, Bondye nou an. Li chita anwo nèt.
6 and [yet] looks upon the low things in heaven, and on the earth:
Li bese je l' pou l' wè sa k'ap pase nan syèl la ak sou latè a.
7 who lifts up the poor from the earth, and raises up the needy from the dunghill;
Li bay pòv malere a men pou fè l' leve soti nan pousyè a. Li wete l' nan mizè.
8 to set him with princes, [even] with the princes of his people:
Li fè l' chita menm kote ak chèf yo, wi, sou menm tab ak chèf pèp li a.
9 who settles the barren [woman] in a house, [as] a mother rejoicing over children.
Li bay fanm ki pa ka fè pitit la yon fanmi. Li fè kè l' kontan lakay li, li ba l' pitit. Lwanj pou Seyè a!
