< Psalms 113 >

1 Praise Yahweh. Praise him, you servants of Yahweh; praise the name of Yahweh. 2 Blessed be the name of Yahweh, both now and forevermore. 3 From the rising of the sun to its setting, Yahweh's name should be praised. 4 Yahweh is exalted above all nations, and his glory reaches above the skies. 5 Who is like Yahweh our God, who has his seat on high, 6 who looks down at the sky and at the earth? 7 He raises up the poor out of the dirt and lifts up the needy from the ash heap, 8 so that he may seat him with princes, with the princes of his people. 9 He gives a home to the barren woman of the house, he makes her a joyful mother of children. Praise Yahweh!
