Psalms

¹Alleluia. Praise the name of the Lord. You servants, praise the Lord. ↗

²You who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God: ↗

³praise the Lord, for the Lord is good. Sing psalms to his name, for it is sweet. ↗

⁴For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession. ↗

⁵For I have known that the Lord is great, and our God is before all gods. ↗

⁶All things whatsoever that he willed, the Lord did: in heaven, on earth, in the sea, and in all the deep places. ↗

⁷He leads clouds from the ends of the earth. He has created lightnings in the rain. He has produced winds from his storehouses. ↗

⁸He struck the first-born of Egypt, from man even to cattle. ↗

⁹He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt: upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants. ↗

¹⁰He has struck many nations, and he has slaughtered strong kings: ↗

¹¹Sihon, king of the Amorites, and Og, king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan. ↗

¹²And he gave their land as an inheritance, as an inheritance for his people Israel. ↗

¹³Your name, O Lord, is in eternity. Your memorial, O Lord, is from generation to generation. ↗

¹⁴For the Lord will judge his people, and he will be petitioned by his servants. ↗

¹⁵The idols of the Gentiles are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men. ↗

¹⁶They have a mouth, and do not speak. They have eyes, and do not see. ↗

¹⁷They have ears, and do not hear. For neither is there any breath in their mouths. ↗

¹⁸Let those who make them become like them, along with all who trust in them. ↗

¹⁹Bless the Lord, O house of Israel. Bless the Lord, O house of Aaron. ↗

²⁰Bless the Lord, O house of Levi. You who fear the Lord, bless the Lord. ↗

²¹The Lord is blessed from Zion, by those who dwell in Jerusalem. ↗
