[113:1] Praise the Lord! Praise, O servants of the Lord, praise the name of the Lord!
[113:2] Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and forevermore!
[113:3] From the rising of the sun to its setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised!
[113:4] The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens!
[113:5] Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,
[113:6] who looks far down on the heavens and the earth?
[113:7] He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap,
[113:8] to make them sit with princes, with the princes of his people.
[113:9] He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the Lord!
