who stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God. Begin Abide·

For the LORD has chosen Jacob as His own, Israel as His treasured possession. Begin Abide·
- 5
For I know that the LORD is great; our Lord is above all gods. Begin Abide·
- 6
The LORD does all that pleases Him in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and in all their depths. Begin Abide·
- 7
He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He generates the lightning with the rain and brings forth the wind from His storehouses. Begin Abide·
- 8
He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, of both man and beast. Begin Abide·
- 9
He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants. Begin Abide·
- 10
He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings: Begin Abide·

Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan. Begin Abide·

He gave their land as an inheritance, as a heritage to His people Israel. Begin Abide·

Your name, O LORD, endures forever, Your renown, O LORD, through all generations. Begin Abide·
- 14
For the LORD will vindicate His people and will have compassion on His servants. Begin Abide·
- 15
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, made by the hands of men. Begin Abide·
- 16
They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see; Begin Abide·
- 17
they have ears, but cannot hear; nor is there breath in their mouths. Begin Abide·
- 18
Those who make them become like them, as do all who trust in them. Begin Abide·
- 19
O house of Israel, bless the LORD; O house of Aaron, bless the LORD; Begin Abide·
- 20
O house of Levi, bless the LORD; you who fear the LORD, bless the LORD! Begin Abide·
- 21
Blessed be the LORD from Zion—He who dwells in Jerusalem. Hallelujah! Begin Abide·
