Praise 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 on 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

and his glory above the heavens.

5 

Who is like the Lord our God,

who is seated on high,

6 

who looks far down

on the heavens and the earth?

7 

He raises the poor from the dust

and lifts the needy from the ash heap,

8 

to make them sit with princes,

with the princes of his people.

9 

He gives the barren woman a home,

making her the joyous mother of children.

Praise the Lord!
