✧1Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD’s name! Praise him, you servants of the LORD, ✧2you who stand in the LORD’s house, in the courts of our God’s house. ✧3Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant. ✧4For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession. ✧5For I know that the LORD is great, that our Lord is above all gods. ✧6Whatever the LORD pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps. ✧7He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings with the rain. He brings the wind out of his treasuries. ✧8He struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal. ✧9

He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.
✧10He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings—
✧11Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan—
✧12and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people.
✧13Your name, LORD, endures forever; your renown, LORD, throughout all generations.
✧14For the LORD will judge his people and have compassion on his servants.
✧15The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
✧16They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see.
✧17They have ears, but they can’t hear, neither is there any breath in their mouths.
✧18Those who make them will be like them, yes, everyone who trusts in them.
✧19House of Israel, praise the LORD! House of Aaron, praise the LORD!
✧20House of Levi, praise the LORD! You who fear the LORD, praise the LORD!
✧21Blessed be the LORD from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
