1 Hallelujah. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

Alleluia. Praise the Lord, you servants [of his], praise, the name of the Lord.

2 Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for ever.

Let the name of the Lord be blessed, from this present time and for ever.

3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof the LORD'S name is to be praised.

From the rising of the sun to his setting, the name of the Lord is to be praised.

4 The LORD is high above all nations, His glory is above the heavens.

The Lord is high above all the nations; his glory is above the heavens.

5 Who is like unto the LORD our God, that is enthroned on high,

Who is as the Lord our God? who dwells in the high places,

6 That looketh down low upon heaven and upon the earth?

and [yet] looks upon the low things in heaven, and on the earth:

7 Who raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the needy out of the dunghill;

who lifts up the poor from the earth, and raises up the needy from the dunghill;

8 That He may set him with princes, even with the princes of His people.

to set him with princes, [even] with the princes of his people:

9 Who maketh the barren woman to dwell in her house as a joyful mother of children. Hallelujah.

who settles the barren [woman] in a house, [as] a mother rejoicing over children.
