The Book of Psalms

Psalm 112
|
(Alleluia.)
1
Praise the Lord, you that are his servants, praise the name of the Lord together.
2
Blessed be the Lord’s name at all times, from this day to all eternity;
3
from the sun’s rise to the sun’s setting let the Lord’s name be praised continually.
4
The Lord is sovereign king of all the nations; his glory is high above the heavens.
5
Who is like the Lord our God, so high above us,
6
that stoops to regard both heaven and earth,
7
lifting up the poor from the dust he lay in, raising the beggar out of his dung-hill,
8
to find him a place among the princes, the princes that rule over his people?
9
He gives the barren woman a home to dwell in, a mother rejoicing in her children.
