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.
13. Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.
