Psalm 113

Laudate, pueri
1
Praise the Lord, ye servants  *
O praise the Name of the Lord.
2
Blessed be the Name of the Lord *
from this time forth for evermore.
3
The Lord’s Name is praised *
from the rising up of the sun unto the going down of the same.
4
The Lord is high above all heathen *
and his glory above the heavens.
5
Who is like unto the Lord our God, that hath his dwelling so high *
and yet humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven and earth?
6
He taketh up the simple out of the dust *
and lifteth the poor out of the mire;
7
That he may set him with the princes *
even with the princes of his people.
8
He maketh the barren woman to keep house *
and to be a joyful mother of children.
