Psalm 113

¹ Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.

² Let blessing be on the name of the Lord, from this time and for ever.

³ From the coming up of the sun to its going down, the Lord’s name is to be praised.

⁴ The Lord is high over all nations, and his glory is higher than the heavens.

⁵ Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,

⁶ Looking down on the heavens, and on the earth?

⁷ He takes the poor man out of the dust, lifting him up from his low position;

⁸ To give him a place among the rulers, even with the rulers of his people.

⁹ He gives the unfertile woman a family, making her a happy mother of children. Give praise to the Lord.
