📚Praise the LORD!
Praise the name of the LORD;
praise him, 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 this is delightful.
4 📚For the LORD has chosen
Jacob for himself,
Israel as his special treasure.
5 📚For I know that the LORD
is great,
and that our Lord
is above all gods.
6 📚Whatever the LORD pleased,
that he did in heaven
and on earth,
in the seas and all deep places.
7 📚He causes the vapours
to ascend from the
ends of the earth.
He makes lightnings for the rain.
He brings the wind out
of his treasuries.
8 📚He struck down the firstborn
of Egypt,
both of man and beast.
9 📚He sent signs and
wonders into your midst,
O Egypt, on Pharaoh and
on all his servants.
10 📚He struck great nations,
and killed mighty kings,
11 📚Sihon king of the Amorites,
and 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, continues
on forever,
and the remembrance
of you, 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 made of
silver and gold,
the work of men’s hands.
16 📚They have mouths,
but they do not speak.
They have eyes, 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 📚Praise the LORD, O house
of Israel.
Praise the LORD, O house
of Aaron.
20 Praise the LORD,
O house of Levi.
You who fear the LORD,
praise the LORD.
21 📚Blessed be the LORD
from Zion,
who dwells in Jerusalem.
Praise the LORD!
