✧Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise [him], O ye servants of the LORD. ✧2Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God, ✧3Praise the LORD; for the LORD [is] good: sing praises unto his name; for [it is] pleasant. ✧4For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, [and] Israel for his peculiar treasure. ✧5For I know that the LORD [is] great, and [that] our Lord [is] above all gods. ✧6Whatsoever the LORD pleased, [that] did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places. ✧7He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries. ✧8Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast. ✧9[Who] sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants. ✧10Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings; ✧11Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan: ✧12And gave their land [for] an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people. ✧13Thy name, O LORD, [endureth] for ever; [and] thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations. ✧14For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants. ✧15The idols of the heathen [are] silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. ✧16They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not; ✧17They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there [any] breath in their mouths. ✧18They that make them are like unto them: [so is] every one that trusteth in them. ✧19Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron: ✧20Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD. ✧21Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
