Psalm 113
1 Praise the LORD!  
Praise, you servants of the LORD,  
praise the LORD’s name.   
2 Blessed be the LORD’s name,  
from this time forward and forever more.   
3 From the rising of the sun to its going down,  
the LORD’s name is to be praised.   
4 The LORD is high above all nations,  
his glory above the heavens.   
5 Who is like the LORD, our God,  
who has his seat on high,   
6 who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?   
7 He raises up the poor out of the dust,  
and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,   
8 that he may set him with princes,  
even with the princes of his people.   
9 He settles the barren woman in her home  
as a joyful mother of children.  
Praise the LORD!
