Praise ye Jah! Praise ye the name of Jehovah, Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, |
2
|
Who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God. |
3
|
Praise ye Jah! for Jehovah [is] good, Sing praise to His name, for [it is] pleasant. |
4
|
For Jacob hath Jah chosen for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure. |
5
|
For I have known that great [is] Jehovah, Yea, our Lord [is] above all gods. |
6
|
All that Jehovah pleased He hath done, In the heavens and in earth, In the seas and all deep places, |
7
|
Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth, Lightnings for the rain He hath made, Bringing forth wind from His treasures. |
8
|
Who smote the first-born of Egypt, From man unto beast. |
9
|
He sent tokens and wonders into thy midst, O Egypt, On Pharaoh and on all his servants. |
10
|
Who smote many nations, and slew strong kings, |
11
|
Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan, And all kingdoms of Canaan. |
12
|
And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to Israel His people, |
13
|
O Jehovah, Thy name [is] to the age, O Jehovah, Thy memorial to all generations. |
14
|
For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants comforteth Himself. |
15
|
The idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, Work of the hands of man. |
16
|
A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not, |
17
|
Ears they have, and they give not ear, Nose—there is no breath in their mouth! |
18
|
Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them. |
19
|
O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah, O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah, |
20
|
O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah, Those fearing Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah. |
21
|
Blessed [is] Jehovah from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem— praise ye Jah! |
