Who Is like Yahweh Our God?

Praise the name of Yahweh.

The (H)name of Yahweh is to be praised.

(K)Who is like Yahweh our God,
The One who (L)sits on high,
The One who [b](M)brings Himself low to see
The things in heaven and on the earth?
Who (N)raises the poor from the dust
And lifts high the needy from the ash heap,
To make them (O)sit with [c]nobles,
With the [d]nobles of His people.
He (P)makes the barren woman of the house sit
As a glad mother of children.
[e]Praise Yah!

Psalm 113

Praise the Lord!

Yes, give praise, O servants of the Lord.
    Praise the name of the Lord!
Blessed be the name of the Lord
    now and forever.
Everywhere—from east to west—
    praise the name of the Lord.
For the Lord is high above the nations;
    his glory is higher than the heavens.

Who can be compared with the Lord our God,
    who is enthroned on high?
He stoops to look down
    on heaven and on earth.
He lifts the poor from the dust
    and the needy from the garbage dump.
He sets them among princes,
    even the princes of his own people!
He gives the childless woman a family,
    making her a happy mother.

Praise the Lord!
