PSAL. CXIII.

An exhortation to praise God for his excellency, 6 for his mercy.

Halelu-jah.

PRaise ye servants of Iehovah: praise ye [unspec 1] the name of Iehovah. Blessed be the name of Iehovah, from this time, and [unspec 2] for ever. From the rising of the Sunne, unto the going in of the same: praised be the name [unspec 3] of Iehovah. Iehovah is high, above all nati∣ons. his glory is above the heavens. Who [unspec 4] [unspec 5] is like Iehovah our God, that lifteth himselfe high, to sit? That debaseth himselfe low to [unspec 6] [unspec 7] see, in the heavens, and in the earth. Hee raiseth the poore from the dust: he lifteth up the needy from the dung. To set him with [unspec 8] bounteous Princes, with the bounteous Prin∣ces of his people. Hee maketh the barren of house to dwell, a joyfull mother of children; [unspec 9] Halelu-jah.
