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.
