1 Praise the LORD!

2 you who stand in the LORD’s house,

3 Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good.

4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself,

5 For I know that the LORD is great,

6 Whatever the LORD pleased, that he has done,

7 He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth.

8 He struck the firstborn of Egypt,

9 He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt,

10 He struck many nations,

11 Sihon king of the Amorites,

12 and gave their land for a heritage,

13 Your name, LORD, endures forever;

14 For the LORD will judge his people

15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold,

16 They have mouths, but they can’t speak.

17 They have ears, but they can’t hear,

18 Those who make them will be like them,

19 House of Israel, praise the LORD!

20 House of Levi, praise the LORD!

21 Blessed be the LORD from Zion,
