[1] Praise the Lord! Praise the name of the Lord; Praise Him, you servants of the Lord, [2] You who stand in the house of the Lord, In the courtyards of the house of our God! [3] Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; Sing praises to His name, for it is lovely. [4] For the Lord has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel as His own possession. [5] For I know that the Lord is great And that our Lord is above all gods. [6] Whatever the Lord pleases, He does, In heaven and on earth, in the seas and in all the ocean depths. [7] He causes the mist to ascend from the ends of the earth, He makes lightning for the rain; He brings forth the wind from His treasuries. [8] He struck the firstborn of Egypt, Both human firstborn and animal. [9] He sent signs and wonders into your midst, Egypt, Upon Pharaoh and all his servants. [10] He struck many nations And brought death to mighty kings, [11] Sihon, king of the Amorites, Og, king of Bashan, And all the kingdoms of Canaan; [12] And He gave their land as an inheritance, An inheritance to His people Israel. [13] Your name, Lord, is everlasting, The mention of You, Lord, is throughout all generations. [14] For the Lord will judge His people And will have compassion on His servants. [15] The idols of the nations are nothing but silver and gold, The work of human hands. [16] They have mouths, but they do not speak; They have eyes, but they do not see; [17] They have ears, but they do not hear, Nor is there any breath at all in their mouths. [18] Those who make them will become like them, Yes, everyone who trusts in them. [19] House of Israel, bless the Lord; House of Aaron, bless the Lord; [20] House of Levi, bless the Lord; You who revere the Lord, bless the Lord. [21] Blessed be the Lord from Zion, Who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the Lord!
