سَبِّحِ ٱسْمَ رَبِّكَ ٱلْأَعْلَى
Sabbi h i isma rabbika alaAAl a
EXTOL the limitless glory of thy Sustainer's name: [the glory of] the All-Highest,
  - Mohammad Asad
Glorify the name of your Rabb, the Most High,
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High,
  - Mustafa Khattab
Praise the name of thy Lord the Most High,
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Glorify the name of thy Guardian-Lord Most High 6080
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The word "Lord" by itself is an inadequate rendering here for Rabb. For it implies cherishing, guarding from harm, sustaining, granting all the means and opportunities of development. See n. 20 to i. 2. For shortness, perhaps "Guardian-Lord" will be sufficient in the Text.
