Praying Through: Psalm 113 Loving

The Psalm

Psalm 113 (CSB)
1 Hallelujah! Give praise, servants of the LORD; praise the name of the LORD.

2 Let the name of the LORD be blessed both now and forever.

3 From the rising of the sun to its setting, let the name of the LORD be praised.

4 The LORD is exalted above all the nations, his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is like the LORD our God— the one enthroned on high,

6 who stoops down to look on the heavens and the earth?

7 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the trash heap

8 in order to seat them with nobles— with the nobles of his people.

9 He gives the childless woman a household, making her the joyful mother of children. Hallelujah!
