Psalms 113:2-9 ▼

2 Blessed be the name of the LORD From this time forth and forever.

3 From the rising of the sun to its setting The name of the LORD is to be praised [with awe-inspired reverence].

4 The LORD is high above all nations, And His glory above the heavens.

5 Who is like the LORD our God, Who is enthroned on high,

6 Who humbles Himself to regard The heavens and the earth?

7 He raises the poor out of the dust And lifts the needy from the ash heap,

8 That He may seat them with princes, With the princes of His people.

9 He makes the barren woman live in the house As a joyful mother of children. Praise the LORD! (Hallelujah!)
