Psalms 113

1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

Alleluya. Children, preise ye the Lord; preise ye the name of the Lord.

2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.

The name of the Lord be blessid; fro this tyme now and til in to the world.

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

Fro the risyng of the sunne til to the goyng doun; the name of the Lord is worthi to be preisid.

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

The Lord is hiy aboue alle folkis; and his glorie is aboue heuenes.

5 Who is like unto the LORD our God, that hath his seat on high,

Who is as oure Lord God, that dwellith in hiye thingis;

6 That humbleth himself to behold [the things that are] in heaven and in the earth?

and biholdith meke thingis in heuene and in erthe?

7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the needy from the dunghill;

Reisynge a nedi man fro the erthe; and enhaunsinge a pore man fro drit.

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

That he sette hym with princes; with the princes of his puple.

9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [and to be] a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.

Which makith a bareyn womman dwelle in the hous; a glad modir of sones.
