Psalms 113
Bishops' Bible
1Prayse ye the Lorde. Prayse God ye seruauntes: prayse ye the name of God.
2Blessed be the name of God: from this time foorth for euermore.
3The name of God is to be praysed: from the rising vp of the sunne, vnto the goyng downe of the same.
4God is high aboue all Heathen: and his glory aboue the heauens.
5Who is like vnto God our Lord that dwelleth on hygh aboue all:
6and yet humbleth him selfe to beholde the thinges that are in heauen and in earth?
7He rayseth vp the simple out of the dust: and lyfteth vp the poore from the dounghyll.
8For to make him sit with the princes: euen with the princes of his people.
9He maketh the barren woman to kepe house: and to be a ioyful mother of children. Prayse ye the Lorde.
