1Halleluja – lobt den HERRN! Lobt den HERRN, ihr seine Diener, lobt seinen herrlichen Namen!2Ja, der Name des HERRN werde gepriesen – jetzt und in alle Ewigkeit!3Von dort, wo die Sonne aufgeht, bis dorthin, wo sie untergeht – überall werde der HERR gelobt!4Er herrscht über alle Völker, seine Hoheit und Macht überragt selbst den Himmel!5-6Einzigartig ist der HERR, unser Gott! Niemand im Himmel und auf der Erde ist ihm gleich. Sein Thron steht hoch über allen Thronen, und doch sieht er hinab auf das, was in der Tiefe vor sich geht.7Dem Verachteten hilft er aus seiner Not. Er zieht den Armen aus dem Schmutz8und stellt ihn denen gleich, die in seinem Volk Rang und Namen haben.9Auch die kinderlose Frau befreit er von ihrer Schmach und macht sie zu einer glücklichen Mutter. Lobt den HERRN. Halleluja!
Psalm 113
New International Reader’s Version
von Biblica1Praise the LORD. Praise him, you who serve the LORD. Praise the name of the LORD.2Let us praise the name of the LORD, both now and for ever.3From the sunrise in the east to the sunset in the west, may the name of the LORD be praised.4The LORD is honoured over all the nations. His glory reaches to the highest heavens.5Who is like the LORD our God? He sits on his throne in heaven.6He bends down to look at the heavens and the earth.7He raises poor people up from the rubbish heap. He lifts needy people out of the ashes.8He causes them to sit with princes. He causes them to sit with the princes of his people.9He gives children to the woman who doesn’t have any children. He makes her a happy mother in her own home. Praise the LORD.

(Ps 34,22; Ps 69,36; Ps 102,28; Ps 104,35; Ps 135,1)2Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and forevermore!

(Hi 36,7)9He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the Lord! (2Mo 1,21; 1Sam 2,5; Ps 68,6; Ps 113,1; Jes 54,1)
