Psalms 113

Psalm 113 1

Praise the Lord!

Praise, you servants of the Lord,

praise the name of the Lord!

2

May the Lord’s name be praised

now and forevermore!

3

From east to west

the Lord’s name is deserving of praise.

4

The Lord is exalted over all the nations;

his splendor reaches beyond the sky.

5

Who can compare to the Lord our God,

who sits on a high throne?

6

He bends down to look

at the sky and the earth.

7

He raises the poor from the dirt,

and lifts up the needy from the garbage pile,

8

that he might seat him with princes,

with the princes of his people.

9

He makes the barren woman of the family

a happy mother of children.

Praise the Lord!
