2 Let the name of Yahweh be praisedboth now and forever.
3 From the rising of the sun to its setting,let the name of Yahweh be praised.
4 Yahweh is exalted above all the nations, His glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like Yahweh our God —the One enthroned on high,
6 who stoops down to lookon the heavens and the earth?
7 He raises the poor from the dustand lifts the needy from the garbage pile
8 in order to seat them with nobles —with the nobles of His people.
