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. |
