106:1Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

106:2Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD? who can shew forth all his praise?

106:3Blessed are they that keep judgment, and he that doeth righteousness at all times.

106:4Remember me, O LORD, with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people: O visit me with thy salvation;

106:5That I may see the good of thy chosen, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thine inheritance.

106:6We have sinned with our fathers, we have committed iniquity, we have done wickedly.

106:7Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies; but provoked him at the sea, even at the Red sea.

106:8Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known.

106:9He rebuked the Red sea also, and it was dried up: so he led them through the depths, as through the wilderness.

106:10And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy.

106:11And the waters covered their enemies: there was not one of them left.

106:12Then believed they his words; they sang his praise.

106:13They soon forgat his works; they waited not for his counsel:

106:14But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and tempted God in the desert.

106:15And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul.

106:16They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the saint of the LORD.

106:17The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.

106:18And a fire was kindled in their company; the flame burned up the wicked.

106:19They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped the molten image.

106:20Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass.

106:21They forgat God their saviour, which had done great things in Egypt;

106:22Wondrous works in the land of Ham, and terrible things by the Red sea.

106:23Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy them.

106:24Yea, they despised the pleasant land, they believed not his word:

106:25But murmured in their tents, and hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD.

106:26Therefore he lifted up his hand against them, to overthrow them in the wilderness:

106:27To overthrow their seed also among the nations, and to scatter them in the lands.

106:28They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead.

106:29Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions: and the plague brake in upon them.

106:30Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed.

106:31And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore.

106:32They angered him also at the waters of strife, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes:

106:33Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.

106:34They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the LORD commanded them:

106:35But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.

106:36And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.

106:37Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,

106:38And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.

106:39Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.

106:40Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.

106:41And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.

106:42Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand.

106:43Many times did he deliver them; but they provoked him with their counsel, and were brought low for their iniquity.

106:44Nevertheless he regarded their affliction, when he heard their cry:

106:45And he remembered for them his covenant, and repented according to the multitude of his mercies.

106:46He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives.

106:47Save us, O LORD our God, and gather us from among the heathen, to give thanks unto thy holy name, and to triumph in thy praise.

106:48Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting: and let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye the LORD.

111:1Praise ye the LORD. I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.

111:2The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.

111:3His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

111:4He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the LORD is gracious and full of compassion.

111:5He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.

111:6He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.

111:7The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.

111:8They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.

111:9He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.

111:10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.

112:0

112:1Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.

112:2His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.

112:3Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.

112:4Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

112:5A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.

112:6Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.

112:7He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

112:8His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.

112:9He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

112:10The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.

113:0

113:1Praise ye the LORD. Praise, O ye servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD.

113:2Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore.

113:3From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the LORD'S name is to be praised.

113:4The LORD is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.

113:5Who is like unto the LORD our God, who dwelleth on high,

113:6Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

113:7He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;

113:8That he may set him with princes, even with the princes of his people.

113:9He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.

135:1Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye servants of the LORD.

135:2Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God,

135:3Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

135:4For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.

135:5For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.

135:6Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.

135:7He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.

135:8Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

135:9Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

135:10Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

135:11Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:

135:12And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people.

135:13Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.

135:14For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.

135:15The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

135:16They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

135:17They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.

135:18They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them.

135:19Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:

135:20Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.

135:21Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.

146:1Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul.

146:2While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.

146:3Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

146:4His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.

146:5Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:

146:6Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever:

146:7Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners:

146:8The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous:

146:9The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.

146:10The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.

147:0

147:1Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

147:2The LORD doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.

147:3He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

147:4He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.

147:5Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

147:6The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

147:7Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:

147:8Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

147:9He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry.

147:10He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man.

147:11The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy.

147:12Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.

147:13For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; he hath blessed thy children within thee.

147:14He maketh peace in thy borders, and filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.

147:15He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly.

147:16He giveth snow like wool: he scattereth the hoarfrost like ashes.

147:17He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?

147:18He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.

147:19He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.

147:20He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.

148:0

148:1Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

148:2Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.

148:3Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.

148:4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

148:5Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

148:6He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.

148:7Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

148:8Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word:

148:9Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

148:10Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

148:11Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

148:12Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:

148:13Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.

148:14He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.

149:0

149:1Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.

149:2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

149:3Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.

149:4For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.

149:5Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

149:6Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand;

149:7To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;

149:8To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

149:9To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.

150:0

150:1Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

150:2Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.

150:3Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.

150:4Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.

150:5Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.

150:6Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
