Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah; Praise `him', O ye servants of Jehovah, |
2. |
Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God. |
3. |
Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good: Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant. |
4. |
For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, `And' Israel for his own possession. |
5. |
For I know that Jehovah is great, And that our Lord is above all gods. |
6. |
Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps; |
7. |
Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; Who maketh lightnings for the rain; Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries; |
8. |
Who smote the first-born of Egypt, Both of man and beast; |
9. |
Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants; |
10. |
Who smote many nations, And slew mighty kings, |
11. |
Sihon king of the Amorites, And Og king of Bashan, And all the kingdoms of Canaan, |
12. |
And gave their land for a heritage, A heritage unto Israel his people. |
13. |
Thy name, O Jehovah, `endureth' for ever; Thy memorial `name', O Jehovah, throughout all generations. |
14. |
For Jehovah will judge his people, And repent himself concerning his servants. |
15. |
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men's hands. |
16. |
They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not; |
17. |
They have ears, but they hear not; Neither is there any breath in their mouths. |
18. |
They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them. |
19. |
O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah: O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah: |
20. |
O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah: Ye that fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah. |
21. |
Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, Who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah. |
