讚美上帝的美善

113 你們要讚美耶和華!
耶和華的僕人啊,
你們要讚美,讚美耶和華。
願耶和華的名受稱頌,
從現在直到永遠!
從日出之地到日落之處,
普世都應當讚美耶和華。
耶和華高居萬國之上,
祂的榮耀高過諸天。
誰能與我們的上帝耶和華相比?
祂坐在至高之處,
俯視諸天和大地。
祂從灰塵中提拔貧窮人,
從糞堆中擢升困苦人,
使他們與王子同坐,
與本國的王子同坐。
祂賜給不育的婦人兒女,
使她們成為快樂的母親。
你們要讚美耶和華!

God’s Majesty and Care for the Needy

113 Praise Yah![a]
Praise, O servants of Yahweh,
praise the name of Yahweh.
Let the name of Yahweh be blessed,
from now until forever.
From the rising of the sun to its setting,
let the name of Yahweh be blessed.
Yahweh is high above all nations;
his glory is above the heavens.
Who is like Yahweh our God,
who is enthroned on high,[b]
who condescends to look at[c]
what is in the heavens and in the earth?
He raises the helpless from the dust;
he lifts the needy from the ash heap,
to seat them with princes,
with the princes of his people.
He causes the barren woman of the house to dwell
as the happy mother of children.
Praise Yah![d]
