The Greatness of the LORD and the Vanity of Idols |
| 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 unto his name; |
|
for it is pleasant. |
|
|
| 4 |
For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto 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 |
Whatsoever 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 firstborn of Egypt,
|
| 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,
|
| 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 unto Israel his people. |
|
|
| 13 |
Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever;
| | |
and thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations. |
|
|
| 14 |
For the LORD will judge his people,
| | |
and he will repent himself concerning his servants. |
|
|
| 15 |
The idols of the heathen are silver and gold,
|
| 16 |
They have mouths, but they speak not;
| | |
eyes have they, but they see not; |
|
|
| 17 |
they have ears, but they hear not;
| | |
neither is there any breath in their mouths. |
|
|
| 18 |
They that make them are like unto them:
|
| 19 |
Bless the LORD, O house of Israel:
| | |
bless the LORD, O house of Aaron: |
|
|
| 20 |
bless the LORD, O house of Levi:
| | |
ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD. |
|
|
| 21 |
Blessed be the LORD out of Zion,
| | |
which dwelleth at Jerusalem. |
|
Praise ye the LORD. |
