1Praise ye the Lord. Praise, O ye seruants of the Lord, prayse the Name of the Lord.

2Blessed be the Name of the Lord from hencefoorth and for euer.

3The Lordes Name is praysed from the rising of ye sunne, vnto ye going downe of the same.

4The Lord is high aboue all nations, and his glorie aboue the heauens.

5Who is like vnto the Lord our God, that hath his dwelling on high!

6Who abaseth himselfe to beholde things in the heauen and in the earth!

7He raiseth the needie out of the dust, and lifteth vp the poore out of the dung,

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

9He maketh the barren woman to dwell with a familie, and a ioyfull mother of children. Prayse ye the Lord.
