Albert Barnes Commentary
"Praise ye Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah, Praise the name of Jehovah." — Psalms 113:1 (ASV)
Praise ye the Lord - Margin, as in Hebrew, “Hallelujah.” See the notes at Psalms 106:1.
Praise, O ye servants of the Lord - You who profess to serve and obey him; who acknowledge him as your God. In the original this is also the word “Hallelu,” הללוּ halelû.
Praise the name of the Lord - Still the same word “Hallelu.” The name of the Lord is put here, as it is often, for the Lord himself.
