¹Praise the Lord.^an

Praise the Lord, you his servants;^o

praise the name of the Lord.

both now and forevermore.^q

³From the rising of the sun^r to the place where it sets,

the name of the Lord is to be praised.

⁴The Lord is exalted^s over all the nations,

his glory above the heavens.^t

⁵Who is like the Lord our God,^u

the One who sits enthroned^v on high,^w

⁶who stoops down to look^x

on the heavens and the earth?

⁷He raises the poor^y from the dust

and lifts the needy^z from the ash heap;

⁸he seats them^a with princes,

with the princes of his people.

⁹He settles the childless^b woman in her home

as a happy mother of children.

Praise the Lord.
