Psalm 113

1 Praise ye Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah, Praise the name of Jehovah.

2 Blessed be the name of Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore.

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

4 Jehovah is high above all nations, And his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is like unto Jehovah our God, That hath his seat on high,

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

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

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

9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, And to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye Jehovah.

Psalm 113

1 Praise the Lord!
Praise, you servants of the Lord,
praise the name of the Lord!

2 May the Lord’s name be praised
now and forevermore!

3 From east to west
the Lord’s name is deserving of praise.

4 The Lord is exalted over all the nations;
his splendor reaches beyond the sky.

5 Who can compare to the Lord our God,
who sits on a high throne?

6 He bends down to look
at the sky and the earth.

7 He raises the poor from the dirt,
and lifts up the needy from the garbage pile,

8 that he might seat him with princes,
with the princes of his people.

9 He makes the barren woman of the family
a happy mother of children.
Praise the Lord!
