Psalm 113

The LORD Exalts the Humble

(1 Samuel 1:1–8)

¹ Hallelujah!¹ Give praise, O servants of the LORD; praise the name of the LORD.

² Blessed be the name of the LORD both now and forevermore.

³ From where the sun rises to where it sets, the name of the LORD is praised.

⁴ The LORD is exalted over all the nations, His glory above the heavens.

⁵ Who is like the LORD our God, the One enthroned on high?

⁶ He humbles Himself to behold the heavens and the earth.

⁷ He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the dump

⁸ to seat them with nobles, with the princes of His people.

⁹ He settles the barren woman in her home as a joyful mother to her children. Hallelujah!
