| Praise for Jehovah’s Wonderful Works. Vanity of Idols |
| [1] | PRAISE 1 ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah; Praise him, O ye servants of Jehovah, |
| [2] | Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God. |
| [3] | Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good: Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant. |
| [4] | For Jehovah 2 hath chosen Jacob unto himself, And Israel for his own possession. |
| [5] | For I know that Jehovah is great, And that our Lord is above all gods. |
| [6] | Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps; |
| [7] | Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; Who maketh lightnings for the rain; Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries; |
| [8] | Who smote the first-born of Egypt, Both of man and beast; |
| [9] | Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants; |
| [10] | Who smote many 3 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 unto Israel his people. |
| [13] | Thy name, O Jehovah, endureth for ever; Thy memorial name, O Jehovah, throughout all generations. |
| [14] | For Jehovah will judge his people, And repent himself concerning his servants. |
| [15] | The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men’s hands. |
| [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 shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth 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: Ye that fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah. |
| [21] | Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, Who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise 4 ye Jehovah. |
