Young's Literal 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.

1Praise ye Jah! Praise, ye servants of Jehovah. Praise the name of Jehovah.
2The name of Jehovah is blessed, From henceforth, and unto the age.
3From the rising of the sun unto its going in, Praised [is] the name of Jehovah.
4High above all nations [is] Jehovah, Above the heavens [is] his honour.
5Who [is] as Jehovah our God, He is exalting [Himself] to sit?
6He is humbling [Himself] to look On the heavens and on the earth.
7He is raising up from the dust the poor, From a dunghill He exalteth the needy.
8To cause to sit with princes, With the princes of His people.
9Causing the barren one of the house to sit, A joyful mother of sons; praise ye Jah!
