1
Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise [him], O ye servants of the LORD.
2
Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God,
3
Praise the LORD; for the LORD [is] good; sing praises to his name; for [it is] pleasant.
4
For the LORD hath chosen Jacob to himself, [and] Israel for his peculiar treasure.
5
For I know that the LORD [is] great, and [that] our Lord [is] above all gods.
6
Whatever the LORD pleased, [that] did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.
7
He causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.
8
Who smote the first-born 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.
10
Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;
11
Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:
12
And gave their land [for] a heritage, a heritage to Israel his people.
