Psalms 113

   |   

The LORD Exalts the Humble.

1 (F1)Praise (F2)the LORD!
(C1)Praise Him, you (C2)servants of the LORD,
Praise the name of the LORD.

2 (C1)Blessed be the name of the LORD
From this time on and forever.

3 (C1)From (F1)the rising of the sun to its setting,
The (C2)name of the LORD is to be praised.

4 The LORD is (C1)high above all nations;
His (C2)glory is above the heavens.

5 (C1)Who is like the LORD our God,
Who (C2)is enthroned on high,

6 Who (C1)looks far down to
The heavens and the earth?

7 He (C1)raises the poor from the dust,
He lifts the needy from the garbage heap,

8 To (C1)seat them with noblemen,
With the noblemen of His people.

9 He (C1)has the infertile woman live in the house
As a joyful mother of children.
(F1)Praise (F2)the LORD!
