Psalm 113:5–114:1

⁵Who is like the Lord our God,

who is seated on high,^*

⁶who looks far down

on the heavens and the earth?^*

⁷He raises the poor from the dust

and lifts the needy from the ash heap,

⁸to make them sit with princes,

with the princes of his people.

⁹He gives the barren woman a home,

making her the joyous mother of children.

Praise the Lord!^*
