1Praise, the Name of the Lord; ye servants of the Lord, praise him.
2Ye that stand in the House of the Lord, and in the courts of the House of our God,
3Praise ye the Lord: for the Lord is good: sing praises unto his Name: for it is a comely thing.
4For the Lord hath chosen Jacob to himself, and Israel for his chief treasure.
5For I know that the Lord is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
6Whatsoever pleased the Lord, that did he in heaven and in earth, in the sea, and in all the depths.
7He bringeth up the clouds from the ends of the earth, and maketh the lightnings with the rain: he draweth forth the wind out of his treasures.
8He smote the firstborn of Egypt both of man and beast.
9He hath sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.
10He smote many nations, and slew mighty Kings:
11As Sihon King of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:
12And gave their land for an inheritance, even an inheritance unto Israel his people.
13Thy Name, O Lord, endureth forever: O Lord, thy remembrance is from generation to generation.
14For the Lord will judge his people, and be pacified toward his servants.
15The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, even the work of men’s hands.
16They have a mouth, and speak not: they have eyes and see not.
17They have ears and hear not, neither is there any breath in their mouth.
18They that make them, are like unto them: so are all that trust in them.
19Praise the Lord, ye house of Israel: praise the Lord, ye house of Aaron.
20Praise the Lord, ye house of Levi; ye that fear the Lord, praise the Lord.
21Praised be the Lord out of Zion, which dwelleth in Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
