[1] Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh’s name! Praise him, you servants of Yahweh, [2] you who stand in Yahweh’s house, in the courts of our God’s house. [3] Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant. [4] For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession. [5] For I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all gods. [6] Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps. [7] He 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. [8] He 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. [10] He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings— [11] Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan— [12] and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people. [13] Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, throughout all generations. [14] For Yahweh will judge his people and have compassion on his servants. [15] The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. [16] They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see. [17] They have ears, but they can’t hear, neither is there any breath in their mouths. [18] Those who make them will be like them, yes, everyone who trusts in them. [19] House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh! [20] House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who fear Yahweh, praise Yahweh! [21] Blessed be Yahweh from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
