Psalms 112
1 Alleluia.
Praise the Lord, ye servants of his, praise the name
of the Lord. 2 Let the name of the
Lord be blessed, from this present time and for ever.
3 From the rising of the sun to his
setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised.
4 The Lord is high above all the
nations; his glory is above the heavens.
5 Who is as the Lord our God? who
dwells in the high places, 6 and
yet looks upon the low things in heaven, and on the
earth: 7 who lifts up the poor from
the earth, and raises up the needy from the dunghill;
8 to set him with princes,
even with the princes of his people:
9 who settles the barren
woman in a house, as a
mother rejoicing over children.
