Verse | |
1. Praise the Lord! Praise the name of the Lord; Praise Him, O you servants of the Lord! | |
2. You who stand in the house of the Lord, In the courts of the house of our God, | |
3. Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; Sing praises to His name, for it is pleasant. | |
4. For the Lord has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel for His special treasure. | |
5. For I know that the Lord is great, And our Lord is above all gods. | |
6. Whatever the Lord pleases He does, In heaven and in earth, In the seas and in all deep places. | |
7. He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; He makes lightning for the rain; He brings the wind out of His treasuries. | |
8. He destroyed the firstborn of Egypt, Both of man and beast. | |
9. He sent signs and wonders into the midst of you, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh and all his servants. | |
10. He defeated many nations And slew mighty kings-- | |
11. Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, And all the kingdoms of Canaan-- | |
12. And gave their land as a heritage, A heritage to Israel His people. | |
13. Your name, O Lord, endures forever, Your fame, O Lord, throughout all generations. | |
14. For the Lord will judge His people, And He will have compassion on His servants. | |
15. The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men's hands. | |
16. They have mouths, but they do not speak; Eyes they have, but they do not see; | |
17. They have ears, but they do not hear; Nor is there any breath in their mouths. | |
18. Those who make them are like them; So is everyone who trusts in them. | |
19. Bless the Lord, O house of Israel! Bless the Lord, O house of Aaron! | |
20. Bless the Lord, O house of Levi! You who fear the Lord, bless the Lord! | |
21. Blessed be the Lord out of Zion, Who dwells in Jerusalem! Praise the Lord! |
