ש ת Hallelujah.O servants of GOD, give praise;praise the name of GOD.
Let GOD’s name be blessednow and forever.
From east to west GOD’s name is praised.
GOD is exalted above all nations;God’s glory is above the heavens.
Who is like the ETERNAL our God—the One who, enthroned on high,
sees what is below,in heaven and on earth?
[God] raises the poor from the dust,lifts up the needy from the refuse heap
to set them with the nobles,with the nobles of God’s people,
and sets the childless woman among her householdas a happy mother of children.Hallelujah.
