English text
- Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye kindreds of the people : ascribe unto the Lord worship and power.
- Ascribe unto the Lord the honour due unto his Name.
- Let the whole earth stand in awe of him.
- Tell it out among the heathen that the Lord is King : and that he shall judge the people righteously.
- Let the whole earth stand in awe of him.
- O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
- Sing to the Lord, and praise his Name : be telling of his salvation from day to day, and his wonders unto all people.
- As for the gods of the heathen, they are but idols.
- Their idols are silver and gold : even the work of men's hands.
- They have mouths, and speak not : eyes have they, and see not.
- They have ears, and hear not : noses have they, and smell not.
- They have hands, and handle not; feet have they, and walk not : neither speak they through their throat.
- They that make them are like unto them : and so are all such as put their trust in them.
- As for our God, he is in heaven : he hath done whatsoever pleased him.
- The Lord hath been mindful of us, and he shall bless us : he shall bless the house of Israel, he shall bless the house of Aaron.
- He shall bless them that fear the Lord : both small and great.
- Ye are the blessed of the Lord : you and your children.
- Ye are the blessed of the Lord : who made heaven and earth.
