Psalm 113 | New International Reader’s Version

1 Praise the LORD. Praise him, you who serve the LORD. Praise the name of the LORD.

2 Let us praise the name of the LORD, both now and for ever.

3 From the sunrise in the east to the sunset in the west, may the name of the LORD be praised.

4 The LORD is honoured over all the nations. His glory reaches to the highest heavens.

5 Who is like the LORD our God? He sits on his throne in heaven.

6 He bends down to look at the heavens and the earth.

7 He raises poor people up from the rubbish heap. He lifts needy people out of the ashes.

8 He causes them to sit with princes. He causes them to sit with the princes of his people.

9 He gives children to the woman who doesn’t have any children. He makes her a happy mother in her own home. Praise the LORD.
