113
# 113 Psalms 113–114 were sung before the meal during the Jewish family’s celebration of Passover, while Pss. 115–118 were sung after the meal (see Mark 14:26). God Is Kind
1Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
Go ahead, praise the Lord, all you loving servants of God!
Keep it up! Praise him some more!
2For the glorious name of the Lord is blessed forever and ever.
3From sunrise-brilliance to sunset-beauty,
lift up his praise from dawn to dusk!
4For he rules on high over the nations
with a glory that outshines even the heavens.
5No one can be compared to God, enthroned on high!
6He stoops down to look upon the sky and the earth.
7He promotes the poor, picking them up from the dirt,
and rescues the needy from the garbage dump.
8He turns paupers into princes and seats them
on their royal thrones of honor.
9God’s grace provides for the barren ones a joyful home with children
so that even childless couples find a family.
He makes them happy parents surrounded by their pride and joy.
That’s the God we praise, so give it all to him!

Psalm 113
Hallelujah, God helps weak people #113:1 The Jews call the next 6 psalms, 113 to 118, ‘the Egyptian hallel.’ ‘Hallel’ is a Hebrew word that means ‘to praise’. Hallelujah means ‘Praise the Lord!’ Jews say these 6 psalms when they eat the Passover meal. That is when they remember how God brought the Israelite people out of Egypt, where they had been slaves.
1 Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
Servants of the Lord, praise him!
Praise the name of the Lord!
2Everyone should praise the Lord
now and for ever!
3The Lord deserves that people praise him,
from where the sun rises in the east,
to where it goes down in the west.
4The Lord rules over all nations.
His glory is great
higher than the heavens!
5There is nobody like the Lord our God.
He sits on his throne high above us.
6He bends down to look below,
at the sky and the earth.
7He lifts poor people out of the dirt.
And he lifts up weak people from the ashes.
8He gives them a seat with princes,
the princes who rule his own people.
9He makes the wife who cannot give birth
into a happy mother of children.
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
