1 Praise ye theLord. Praise, O ye servants of theLord, praise the name of theLord.
2 Blessed be the name of theLordfrom this time forth and for evermore.
3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same theLord’S name is to be praised.
4 TheLordis high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like unto theLordour God, that hath his seat on high,
6 That humbleth himself to beholdthe things that arein heaven and in the earth?
7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the needy from 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 bea joyful mother of children. Praise ye theLord.
