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