Psalm 113

¹Hallelujah! Give praise, you servants of the Lord; *praise the Name of the Lord.

²Let the Name of the Lord be blessed, *from this time forth for evermore.

³From the rising of the sun to its going down *let the Name of the Lord be praised.

⁴The Lord is high above all nations, *and his glory above the heavens.

⁵Who is like the Lord our God, who sits enthroned on high, *but stoops to behold the heavens and the earth?

⁶He takes up the weak out of the dust *and lifts up the poor from the ashes.

⁷He sets them with the princes, *with the princes of his people.

⁸He makes the woman of a childless house *to be a joyful mother of children.
