Psalm 113

1 Praise the Lord.[a](A)

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

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

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

Praise the Lord.
