Psalms 113:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 113:6

4 The Lord is ^ahigh above all nations,
^bHis glory above the heavens.

5 ^aWho is like the Lord our God,
Who dwells on high,

6 ^aWho humbles Himself to behold
The things that are in the heavens and in the earth?

7 ^aHe raises the poor out of the dust,
And lifts the ^bneedy out of the ash heap,

8 That He may ^aseat him with princes—
With the princes of His people.

9 ^aHe grants the¹ barren woman a home,
Like a joyful mother of children.
Praise the Lord!
