1Praise Yahweh!
2You who stand in the temple of Yahweh our God and in the surrounding courtyard,
3Praise Yahweh, because he does good things for us;
4He has chosen us, the descendants of Jacob;
5I know that Yahweh is great;
6Yahweh does whatever he desires to do,
7He is the one who causes clouds to appear from very distant places on the earth;
8He is the one who killed all the firstborn males in Egypt,
9There he performed many kinds of miracles [DOU]
10He destroyed many nations
11Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group,
12Then he gave their land to us Israeli people
13Yahweh your name will endure forever,
14Yahweh, you declare that we your people ◄are innocent/have not done things that are wrong►,
15But the idols that the other people-groups worship are only statues made of silver and gold,
16Their idols have mouths, but they cannot say anything;
17They have ears, but they cannot hear anything,
18The people who make those idols are as powerless as those idols,
19My fellow Israelis, praise Yahweh!
20You men who are descended from Levi, you who assist the priests, praise Yahweh!
21Praise Yahweh in the temple on Zion Hill in Jerusalem,
