Psalms 113
The passage praises the name of the Lord, declaring it blessed and praiseworthy from sunrise to sunset. The Lord is exalted above all nations and heavens, and is unique in His power and care for the humble. He lifts up the needy and poor, elevating them to positions of leadership, and blesses the barren with children.
