# Psalm 113 (New King James Version)
The Majesty and Condescension of God

##### Chapter 113
###### 1 Praise the Lord!
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.

###### 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?

###### 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 woman a home,  
Like a joyful mother of children.
Praise the Lord!
