Psalm 113

1 praise ye the lord praise, o ye servants of the lord, praise the name of the lord 2 blessed be the name of the lord from this time forth and for evermore 3 from the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the lord's name is to be praised 4 the lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens 5 who is like unto the lord our god, who dwelleth on high, 6 who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! 7 he raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; 8 that he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people 9 he maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children praise ye the lord
