Psalms 113

113
Psalm 113
God helps weak people #113:1 The Jews call Psalms 113 to 118, ‘the Egyptian Hallel’. ‘Hallel’ is a Hebrew word that means ‘to praise’. Hallelujah means ‘Praise the Lord!’ Jews say these six psalms when they eat the Passover meal together. They remember how God brought the Israelite people out of Egypt, where they had been slaves.
1 Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
Servants of the Lord, praise him!
Praise the name of the Lord!
2Everyone should praise the name of the Lord
now and for ever!
3The Lord deserves that people praise him,
from where the sun rises in the east,
to where it goes down in the west.
4The Lord rules over all nations.
His glory is great.
It is higher than the heavens!
5There is nobody like the Lord our God.
He sits on his throne high above us.
6He bends down to look below,
at the sky and the earth.
7He lifts poor people out of the dirt.
He lifts up weak people from the ashes.
8He gives them a seat with princes,
the princes who rule his own people.
9He gives children to the woman who cannot give birth.
She becomes a happy mother in her home.
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
