PSALM 113


113:1 Hallelujah. Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise the name of the Lord.

113:2 Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and for ever.

113:3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof the Lord's name is to be praised.

113:4 the Lord is high above all nations, His glory is above the heavens.

113:5 Who is like unto the Lord our God, that is enthroned on high,

113:6 That looketh down low upon heaven and upon the earth?

113:7 Who raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the needy out of the dunghill;

113:8 That He may set him with princes, even with the princes of His people.

113:9 Who maketh the barren woman to dwell in her house as a joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.
