Psalms 113

1 Praise ye Yah! Praise, O ye servants of Yahweh, Praise the Name of Yahweh;

Alleluia. Praise the Lord, children. Praise the name of the Lord.

2 Be the Name of Yahweh blessed, henceforth, even to times age-abiding.

Blessed is the name of the Lord, from this time forward and even forever.

3 From the rising of the sun unto the going in thereof, Worthy to be praised, is the Name of Yahweh:

From the rising of the sun, even to its setting, praiseworthy is the name of the Lord.

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

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

5 Who is like Yahweh our God? that goeth on high to dwell,

Who is like the Lord, our God, who dwells on high,

6 That cometh down low to look, through the heavens and through the earth;

and who gazes upon the humble things in heaven and on earth?

7 That raiseth, out of the dust, the poor, From the dunghill, uplifteth the needy;

He lifts up the needy from the ground, and he urges the poor away from filth,

8 To give a seat with nobles, with the nobles of his people!

so that he may place him with the leaders, with the leaders of his people.

9 Causing the barren woman to dwell in a household, A mother of sons in her joy! Praise ye Yah.

He causes a barren woman to live in a house, as the joyful mother of sons.
