Psalm 113
Darby Translation
Chapter overview
Psalm 113 stretches praise from sunrise to sunset and from heaven's heights toward society's lowest places. The poor receive dignity, the needy share honored company, and a childless woman rejoices within family.

1Hallelujah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, praise the name of Jehovah.
2Blessed be the name of Jehovah, from this time forth and for evermore!
3From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised.
4Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens.
5Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high;
6Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?
7He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy,
8To set [him] among nobles, among the nobles of his people.
9He maketh the barren woman to keep house, [as] a joyful mother of sons. Hallelujah!
