Psalms [Praises] 113

Context: Hallel 2:6. (No reference)

1Halleluyah ·praise Yah·!

Praise, you servants of Adonai,

praise Adonai’s name.

2Blessed be Adonai’s name,

from this time forward and forever more.

3From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same,

Adonai’s name is to be praised.

4Adonai is high above all nations,

his kavod ·weighty glory· above the heavens.

5Who is like Adonai, our God,

who has his seat on high,

6Who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?

7He raises up the poor out of the dust.

Lifts up the needy from the ash heap;

8that he may set him with princes,

even with the princes of his people.

9He settles the barren woman in her home,

as a joyful mother of children.

Halleluyah ·praise Yah·!
