God’s Majesty and Care for the Needy

1 Praise Yah!

Praise, O servants of Yahweh,

praise the name of Yahweh.

2 Let the name of Yahweh be blessed,

from now until forever.

3 From the rising of the sun to its setting,

let the name of Yahweh be blessed.

4 Yahweh is high above all nations;

his glory is above the heavens.

5 Who is like Yahweh our God,

who is enthroned on high,

6 who condescends to look at

what is in the heavens and in the earth?

7 He raises the helpless from the dust;

he lifts the needy from the ash heap,

8 to seat them with princes,

with the princes of his people.

9 He causes the barren woman of the house to dwell

as the happy mother of children.

Praise Yah!
