Psalm 113

1-3 Hallelujah!

You who serveGod, praiseGod!

Just to speak his name is praise!

Just to rememberGodis a blessing—

now and tomorrow and always.

From east to west, from dawn to dusk,

keep lifting all your praises toGod!

4-9 Godis higher than anything and anyone,

outshining everything you can see in the skies.

Who can compare withGod, our God,

so majestically enthroned,

Surveying his magnificent

heavens and earth?

He picks up the poor from out of the dirt,

rescues the wretched 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!
