1PRAISE the Lord!
Praise, O servants of the Lord,
praise the name of the Lord!
2 Blessed be the name of the Lord
from this time forth and forevermore.
3 From the rising of the sun to its setting
the name of the Lord is to be praised.
4 The Lord is high above all nations,
His glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like the Lord our God—
the One enthroned on High,
6 who stoops down to look
on the heavens and the earth?
7 He raises the poor from out of the dust,
and lifts the needy from the ash heap,
8 that He may seat them with princes,
with the princes of His people.
9 He gives the barren woman a household,
as a joyful mother of children.
Praise the Lord!
