Praise ye the Lord.

 





Sing,

O

ye heavens;

for the Lord hath done it:

shout,

ye

lower parts of the earth:

break forth into singing,

ye mountains,

O forest,

and every tree therein:

for the Lord ISamuelYea hath redeemed Jacob,

and glorified himself in Israel.

 

Thus saith the Lord,

thy redeemer,

and he that formed thee

from the womb,

 

I am ISamuelyea

 

the

Lord

that maketh all things;

 

that stretcheth

forth the heavens

alone;

 

that spreadeth abroad the earth

by myself;

 

That frustrateth the tokens

of

the liars,

and maketh diviners mad;

**

and let them have dominion

over the fish

of

the sea,

**

that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;

**

and Methusael begat Lamech.

 

**

That confirmeth

the word

of

his servant,

and performeth the counsel

of

his messengers;

that saith

to

Jerusalem,

Thou

shalt be inhabited;

 

and to the cities

of

Judah,

 

Ye

shall be built,

and

I

will raise up

the

decayed places thereof:

*****

 

Praise ye

the

Lord.

Praise ye the name of the Lord;

praise him,

O

ye servants

of the

Lord.

 

Ye that stand

in the

house

of the

Lord,

 

in the courts

of the

house

of

our God,

 

Praise the Lord;

 

for the Lord is good:

 

sing praises unto his name;

 

for

it is

pleasant.

For the Lord hath

chosen Jacob unto himself,

 

and Israel

for his

peculiar treasure.

    

For I know

that the

Lord is great,

 

and that our

Lord

is

above all gods.

******

and Lot

sat in

the

gate of Sodom:

*

And the glory

 of the

Lord came into

the house

by the way

of the

gate whose prospect

is

toward the east.

 

So

the spirit

took me up,

and brought

me

into the inner court;

 

and,

behold,

 

the glory

of the

Lord filled the house.

    

And

I

heard him speaking

unto

me out

of the

house;

 

and the

man stood

by

me.

 

And he said unto me,

 

Son of man,

the place

of

my throne,

and the place

of the

soles

of

my feet,

 

where

I

will dwell

in the

midst of the children

of

Israel for ever,

and my holy name,

shall the

house of Israel

no more

defile,

 

neither they,

nor their kings,

by

their whoredom,

 

 

nor by

the

 carcases

of

their kings

in

their high places.

 

Samuel
