Psalm 113–114

¹Praise ye Jah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.

²The name of Jehovah is blessed, From henceforth, and unto the age.

³From the rising of the sun unto its going in, Praised is the name of Jehovah.

⁴High above all nations is Jehovah, Above the heavens is his honour.

⁵Who is as Jehovah our God, He is exalting Himself to sit?

⁶He is humbling Himself to look On the heavens and on the earth.

⁷He is raising up from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He exalteth the needy.

⁸To cause to sit with princes, With the princes of His people.

⁹Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise ye Jah!

Psalm 114

¹In the going out of Israel from Egypt, The house of Jacob from a strange people,

²Judah became His sanctuary, Israel his dominion.

³The sea hath seen, and fleeth, The Jordan turneth backward.

⁴The mountains have skipped as rams, Heights as sons of a flock.

⁵What—to thee, O sea, that thou fleest? O Jordan, thou turnest back!

⁶O mountains, ye skip as rams! O heights, as sons of a flock!

⁷From before the Lord be afraid, O earth, From before the God of Jacob,

⁸He is turning the rock to a pool of waters, The flint to a fountain of waters!
