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 ye the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.
4. For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto 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. Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that hath he done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps.
7. He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries.
8. Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.
9. He sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.
