| 1 ¶ Praise ye1 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 dwelleth2 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 keep3 house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.
