1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye servants of the LORD.1 Alleluia. Confess to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is eternal.
2 Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God,2 Confess to the God of gods, for his mercy is eternal.
3 Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.3 Confess to the Lord of lords, for his mercy is eternal.
4 For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.4 He alone performs great miracles, for his mercy is eternal.
5 For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.5 He made the heavens with understanding, for his mercy is eternal.
6 Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.6 He established the earth above the waters, for his mercy is eternal.
7 He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.7 He made the great lights, for his mercy is eternal:
8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.8 the sun to rule the day, for his mercy is eternal:
9 Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.9 the moon and the stars to rule the night, for his mercy is eternal.
10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;10 He struck Egypt along with their first-born, for his mercy is eternal.
11 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:11 He led Israel away from their midst, for his mercy is eternal:
12 And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people.12 with a powerful hand and an outstretched arm, for his mercy is eternal.
13 Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.13 He divided the Red Sea into separate parts, for his mercy is eternal.
14 For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.14 And he led out Israel through the middle of it, for his mercy is eternal.
15 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.15 And he shook off Pharaoh and his army in the Red Sea, for his mercy is eternal.
16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;16 He led his people through the desert, for his mercy is eternal.
17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.17 He has struck great kings, for his mercy is eternal.
18 They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them.18 And he has slaughtered strong kings, for his mercy is eternal:
19 Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:19 Sihon, king of the Amorites, for his mercy is eternal:
20 Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.20 and Og, king of Bashan, for his mercy is eternal.
21 Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.21 And he granted their land as an inheritance, for his mercy is eternal:
22 as an inheritance for his servant Israel, for his mercy is eternal.
23 For he was mindful of us in our humiliation, for his mercy is eternal.
