Psalm 113

Psalm 113

Praise the Lord.^a

Praise the Lord, you his servants;^b

praise the name of the Lord.

Let the name of the Lord be praised,^c

both now and forevermore.^d

From the rising of the sun^e to the place where it sets,

the name of the Lord is to be praised.

The Lord is exalted^f over all the nations,

his glory above the heavens.^g

Who is like the Lord our God,^h

the One who sits enthronedⁱ on high,^j

who stoops down to look^k

on the heavens and the earth?

He raises the poor^l from the dust

and lifts the needy^m from the ash heap;

he seats themⁿ with princes,

with the princes of his people.

He settles the childless^o woman in her home

as a happy mother of children.

Praise the Lord.
