113 Praise Yah!
    Praise, you servants of Yahweh,
    praise Yahweh’s name.
Blessed be Yahweh’s name,
    from this time forward and forever more.
From the rising of the sun to its going down,
    Yahweh’s name is to be praised.
Yahweh is high above all nations,
    his glory above the heavens.
Who is like Yahweh, our God,
    who has his seat on high,
    Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?
He raises up the poor out of the dust.
    Lifts up the needy from the ash heap,
that he may set him with princes,
    even with the princes of his people.
He settles the barren woman in her home
    as a joyful mother of children.
Praise Yah!

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!
