The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory is high above the heavens.

Who is like the Lord, our God, who dwells on high,
6
and who gazes upon the humble things in heaven and on earth?
7
He lifts up the needy from the ground, and he urges the poor away from filth,
8
so that he may place him with the leaders, with the leaders of his people.

He causes a barren woman to live in a house, as the joyful mother of sons.
