¹Hallelujah! Blessed is the man that feareth Jehovah, that delighteth greatly in his commandments. ²His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright shall be blessed. ³Wealth and riches shall be in his house; and his righteousness abideth for ever. ⁴Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness; he is gracious, and merciful, and righteous. ⁵It is well with the man that is gracious and lendeth; he will sustain his cause in judgment.

⁶For he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. ⁷He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed confiding in Jehovah; ⁸His heart is maintained, he is not afraid, until he see his desire upon his oppressors. ⁹He scattereth abroad, he giveth to the needy; his righteousness abideth for ever: his horn shall be exalted with honour. ¹⁰The wicked man shall see it and be vexed; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

Psalm 113

¹Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah. ²Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore! ³From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah’s name be praised. ⁴Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens. ⁵Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high; ⁶Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth? ⁷He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy, ⁸To set him among nobles, among the nobles of his people. ⁹He maketh the barren woman to keep house, as a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!
