1Praise ye the LORD! Praise, O ye servants of the LORD! Praise the name of the LORD!

2Blessed be the name of the LORD From this time forth, even for ever!

3From the rising of the sun to its going down, May the LORD'S name be praised!

4The LORD is high above all nations; His glory is above the heavens.

5Who is like the LORD, our God, That dwelleth on high,

6That looketh down low Upon the heavens and the earth?

7He raiseth the poor from the dust, And exalteth the needy from the dunghill,

8To set him among princes, Even among the princes of his people.

9He causeth the barren woman to dwell in a house, A joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD!
