Your Name Endures Forever
(2 Chronicles 7:1-3;Psalm 136:1-26)
1Praiseye the LORD.Praiseye the nameof the LORD;praise[him], O ye servantsof the LORD.
2Ye that standin the houseof the LORD,in the courtsof the houseof our God,
3Praisethe LORD;for the LORD[is] good:sing praisesunto his name;for [it is] pleasant.
4For the LORDhath chosenJacobunto himself, [and] Israelfor his peculiar treasure.
5For I knowthat the LORD[is] great,and [that] our Lord[is] above all gods.
6Whatsoever the LORDpleased,[that] didhe in heaven,and in earth,in the seas,and all deep places.
7He causeth the vapoursto ascendfrom the endsof the earth;he makethlightningsfor the rain;he bringeththe windout of his treasuries.
8Who smotethe firstbornof Egypt,both of manand beast.
9[Who] senttokensand wondersinto the midstof thee, O Egypt,upon Pharaoh,and upon all his servants.
10Who smotegreatnations,and slewmightykings;
11Sihonkingof the Amorites,and Ogkingof Bashan,and all the kingdomsof Canaan:
12And gavetheir land[for] an heritage,an heritageunto Israelhis people.
13Thy name,O LORD,[endureth] for ever;[and] thy memorial,O LORD,throughout allgenerations.
14For the LORDwill judgehis people,and he will repenthimself concerning his servants.
15The idolsof the heathen[are] silverand gold,the workof men'shands.
16They have mouths,but they speaknot; eyeshave they, but they seenot;
17They have ears,but they hearnot; neither is there[any] breathin their mouths.
18They that makethem are like unto them: [so is] every one that trustethin them.
19Blessthe LORD,O houseof Israel:blessthe LORD,O houseof Aaron:
20Blessthe LORD,O houseof Levi:ye that fearthe LORD,blessthe LORD.
21Blessedbe the LORDout of Zion,which dwellethat Jerusalem.Praiseye the LORD.
