We demonstrate a cw, laser diode-pumped $\mathrm{Nd}\text{:}{\mathrm{GdVO}}_4/{\mathrm{SrMoO}}_4$ crystalline Raman laser. First Stokes laser output at $1173.5\mathrm{nm}$ of $2.18\mathrm{W}$ was achieved with a diode-to-first Stokes efficiency of 8.7%. With intracavity frequency doubling in ${\mathrm{LiB}}_3{\mathrm{O}}_5$ , $3.1\mathrm{W}$ of cw yellow emission at $586.8\mathrm{nm}$ was obtained with a 12.4% diode-to-yellow efficiency. The experimental results show that ${\mathrm{SrMoO}}_4$ is an excellent stimulated Raman scattering gain material for high-power cw near-IR Stokes and yellow lasers.
