PRAISE the LORD  ! Praise, O servant pf 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 going down the LORD'S name 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, who dwell on high,

6 Who humbles Himself to behold the things that are in the heavens and in the  earth ?

7 He raised the poor out of the dust, and lifts the needy out of ash heap,

8 That He may seat him with princes - with the princes of His people.

9 He grants the baren woman a hom, like a joyful mother of children. Praise the LORD !
