Give Praise, O Servants of the LORD
(Psalm 115:1–18)

1Praise ye the Lord. Praise the Name of the Lorde: ye seruants of the Lord, praise him.

2Ye that stande in the House of the Lord, and in the courtes of the House of our God,

3Praise ye the Lord: for the Lorde is good: sing praises vnto his Name: for it is a comely thing.

4For the Lord hath chosen Iaakob to himselfe, and Israel for his chiefe treasure.

5For I know that the Lord is great, and that our Lord is aboue all gods.

6Whatsoeuer pleased the Lorde, that did hee in heauen and in earth, in the sea, and in all the depths.

7He bringeth vp the cloudes fro the ends of the earth, & maketh the lightnings with ye raine: he draweth foorth the winde out of his treasures.

8He smote the first borne of Egypt both of man and beast.

9He hath sent tokens and wonders into the middes of thee, O Egypt, vpon Pharaoh, and vpon all his seruants.

10He smote many nations, and slew mightie Kings:

11As Sihon King of the Amorites, and Og King of Bashan, & all the kingdomes of Canaan:

12And gaue their lande for an inheritance, euen an inheritance vnto Israel his people.

13Thy Name, O Lorde, endureth for euer: O Lorde, thy remembrance is from generation to generation.

14For the Lord will iudge his people, and be pacified towardes his seruants.

15The idoles of the heathen are siluer and golde, euen the worke of mens handes.

16They haue a mouth, and speake not: they haue eyes and see not.

17They haue eares and heare not, neither is there any breath in their mouth.

18They that make them, are like vnto them: so are all that trust in them.

19Praise the Lord, ye house of Israel: praise the Lord, ye house of Aaron.

20Praise the Lorde, ye house of Leui: ye that feare the Lord, praise the Lord.

21Praised bee the Lorde out of Zion, which dwelleth in Ierusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
