113 Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.

Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore!

From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised.

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

Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high;

Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?

He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,

To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.

He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!

Psalm 113

Praise the Lord.[a](A)

Praise the Lord, you his servants;(B)
    praise the name of the Lord.
Let the name of the Lord be praised,(C)
    both now and forevermore.(D)
From the rising of the sun(E) to the place where it sets,
    the name of the Lord is to be praised.

The Lord is exalted(F) over all the nations,
    his glory above the heavens.(G)
Who is like the Lord our God,(H)
    the One who sits enthroned(I) on high,(J)
who stoops down to look(K)
    on the heavens and the earth?

He raises the poor(L) from the dust
    and lifts the needy(M) from the ash heap;
he seats them(N) with princes,
    with the princes of his people.
He settles the childless(O) woman in her home
    as a happy mother of children.

Praise the Lord.
