• 1. 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!
