Psalms 113:2-9 ▼

2 Blessed be the name of the LORD both now and forever.

3 From the rising of the sun to its setting let the name of the LORD be praised.

4 High above all nations is the LORD; above the heavens his glory.

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

6 looking down on heaven and earth?

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

8 Seats them with princes, the princes of the people,

9 Gives the childless wife a home, the joyful mother of children. Hallelujah!
