[ Read](/kjv/psalms/113)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/113)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/113) Audio

 1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.*

 2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.

 3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD’s name *is* to be praised.

 4 The LORD *is* high above all nations, *and* his glory above the heavens.

 5 Who *is* like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high,*

 6 Who humbleth *himself* to behold *the things that are* in heaven, and in the earth!

 7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, *and* lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;

 8 That he may set *him* with princes, *even* with the princes of his people.

 9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, *and to be* a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.*
 
[Psalms 112](/study/psalms/112) [Psalms 114](/study/psalms/114)

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Psalms 113:0](/kjv/psalms/113/0), [Psalms 114:0](/kjv/psalms/114/0), [Psalms 115:0](/kjv/psalms/115/0), [Psalms 116:0](/kjv/psalms/116/0), [Psalms 117:0](/kjv/psalms/117/0), and [Psalms 118:0](/kjv/psalms/118/0), form the great *Hallel*, and were sung by the Jews on their most solemn festivals, and particularly at the *passover*. To these reference is made by the *evangelists*, [Matthew 26:30](/kjv/matthew/26/30), and [Mark 14:26](/kjv/mark/14/26), there called the *hymn* which Jesus and his disciples sung at the passover, for the whole of the Psalms were considered as one grand hymn or thanksgiving. It was probably composed after the return from the captivity. It has no title but *Hallelujah* in the *Hebrew* and ancient *Versions*. 

Verse [Psalms 113:1](/kjv/psalms/113/1). ***Praise, O ye servants*** — Probably an address to the Levites. The Anglo-Saxon has [A.S.], *praise the Lord, ye knaves*. Knapa or knave signified among our ancestors a *servant*; sometimes a *male, a young man*.
