1
Praise the LORD. Praise the name of the LORD, give praise, O servants of the LORD,
2
you 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 to his name, for he is gracious!
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 all deeps.
