Psalms 113:1-9
Psalms 113:1-9 King James Version (KJV)
Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, Praise the name of the LORD. Blessed be the name of the LORD From this time forth and for evermore. From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same The LORD's name is to be praised. The LORD is high above all nations, And his glory above the heavens. Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high, Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth! He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, And lifteth the needy out of the dunghill; That he may set him with princes, Even with the princes of his people. He maketh the barren woman to keep house, And to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.
Psalms 113:1-9 The Message (MSG)
Hallelujah! You who serve GOD, praise GOD! Just to speak his name is praise! Just to remember GOD is a blessing— now and tomorrow and always. From east to west, from dawn to dusk, keep lifting all your praises to GOD! GOD is higher than anything and anyone, outshining everything you can see in the skies. Who can compare with GOD, our God, so majestically enthroned, Surveying his magnificent heavens and earth? He picks up the poor from out of the dirt, rescues the forgotten who’ve been thrown out with the trash, Seats them among the honored guests, a place of honor among the brightest and best. He gives childless couples a family, gives them joy as the parents of children. Hallelujah!

Praise the LORD! Praise him, you servants of the LORD; praise the name of the LORD. The LORD’s name should be praised now and forever. The LORD’s name should be praised from where the sun rises to where it sets. The LORD is supreme over all the nations; his glory reaches to the skies. No one is like the LORD our God, who rules from heaven, who bends down to look at the skies and the earth. The LORD lifts the poor from the dirt and takes the helpless from the ashes. He seats them with princes, the princes of his people. He gives children to the woman who has none and makes her a happy mother. Praise the LORD!
