New American Standard Bible (1995 Edition)

Psalms 113

   |   

The Lord Exalts the Humble.

1 [a]Praise [b]the Lord!
(a)Praise, O (b)servants of the Lord,
Praise the name of the Lord.
2 (c)Blessed be the name of the Lord
From this time forth and forever.
3 (d)From the rising of the sun to its setting
The (e)name of the Lord is to be praised.
4 The Lord is (f)high above all nations;
His (g)glory is above the heavens.

5 (h)Who is like the Lord our God,
Who (i)is enthroned on high,
6 Who [c](j)humbles Himself to behold
The things that are in heaven and in the earth?
7 He (k)raises the poor from the dust
And lifts the needy from the ash heap,
8 To make them (l)sit with [d]princes,
With the [e]princes of His people.
9 He (m)makes the barren woman abide in the house
As a joyful mother of children.
[f]Praise [g]the Lord!
