Your Name, O Lord, Endures Forever

¹uPraise the Lord!

Praise the name of the Lord,

give praise, O vservants of the Lord,

²who nstand in the house of the Lord,

in wthe courts of the house of our God!

³Praise the Lord, for xthe Lord is good;

sing to his name, yfor it is pleasant!1

⁴For the Lord has zchosen Jacob for himself,

Israel as his aown possession.

⁵For I know that bthe Lord is great,

and that our Lord is above all gods.

⁶cWhatever the Lord pleases, he does,

in heaven and on earth,

in the seas and all deeps.

⁷dHe it is who makes the clouds rise at the end of the earth,

who emakes lightnings for the rain

and brings forth the wind from his fstorehouses.

⁸He it was who gstruck down the firstborn of Egypt,

both of man and of beast;

⁹who in your midst, O Egypt,

sent hsigns and wonders

against Pharaoh and all his servants;

¹⁰iwho struck down many nations

and killed mighty kings,

¹¹jSihon, king of the Amorites,

and kOg, king of Bashan,

and lall the kingdoms of Canaan,

¹²and mgave their land as a heritage,

a heritage to his people Israel.

¹³nYour name, O Lord, endures forever,

oyour renown,2 O Lord, throughout all ages.

¹⁴pFor the Lord will vindicate his people

and qhave compassion on his servants.

¹⁵rThe idols of the nations are silver and gold,

the work of human hands.

¹⁶They have mouths, but do not speak;

they have eyes, but do not see;

¹⁷they have ears, but do not hear,

nor is there any breath in their mouths.

¹⁸Those who make them become like them,

so do all who trust in them.

¹⁹sO house of Israel, bless the Lord!

O house of Aaron, bless the Lord!

²⁰O house of Levi, bless the Lord!

You who fear the Lord, bless the Lord!

²¹Blessed be the Lord tfrom Zion,

he who udwells in Jerusalem!

vPraise the Lord!
