Psalm 113 Majesty and Condescension of God

Psalm 113:1-9 Majesty and Condescension of God

Psalm 113:1-3
1 Praise the Lord! (Hebrew: Hallelujah)

Praise, O servants of the Lord,
Praise the name of the Lord!
2
Blessed be the name of the Lord
From this time forth and forevermore!
3
From the rising of the sun to its going down
The Lord’s name is to be praised.

Psalm 113:4-6
4
The Lord is high above all nations,
His glory above the heavens.
5
Who is like the Lord our God,
Who dwells on high,
6
Who humbles Himself to behold
The things that are in the heavens and in the earth?

Psalm 113:7-9
7
He raises the poor out of the dust,
And lifts the needy out of the ash heap,
8
That He may seat him with princes—
With the princes of His people.
9
He grants the barren (childless) woman a home,
Like a joyful mother of children.

Praise the Lord!
