Psalm 113

Praise to the Merciful God

Hallelujah!
Give praise, servants of Yahweh;
praise the name of Yahweh.(A)
Let the name of Yahweh be praised
both now and forever.(B)
From the rising of the sun to its setting,
let the name of Yahweh be praised.(C)

Yahweh is exalted above all the nations,(D)
His glory above the heavens.(E)
Who is like Yahweh our God—
the One enthroned on high,(F)
who stoops down to look
on the heavens and the earth?(G)
He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the garbage pile(H)
in order to seat them with nobles—
with the nobles of His people.(I)
He gives the childless woman a household,
making her the joyful mother of children.(J)
Hallelujah!

Praise to the Loving God

113 Hallelujah!
Give praise, you servants of the Lord.
    Praise the name of the Lord!

May the name of the Lord be blessed
    from now to eternity.
From rising[a] to setting[b] sun,
    may the name of the Lord be praised.
The Lord is exalted high above all the nations;
    his glory beyond the heavens.

Who is like the Lord our God,
    enthroned on high,
yet stooping low to observe
    the sky and the earth?

He lifts the poor person from the dust,
    raising the needy from the trash pile
and giving him a seat among nobles—
    with the nobles of his people.
He makes the barren woman among her household
    a happy mother of joyful children.

Hallelujah!
