Who Is like Yahweh Our God?
Praise Yah!
Praise, O slaves of Yahweh,
Praise the name of Yahweh.
2 May the name of Yahweh be blessed
From now until forever.
3 From the rising of the sun to its setting
The name of Yahweh is to be praised.
4 Yahweh is high above all nations;
His glory is above the heavens.
5 Who is like Yahweh our God,
The One who sits on high,
6 The One who brings Himself low to see
The things in heaven and on the earth?
7 Who raises the poor from the dust
And lifts high the needy from the ash heap,
8 To make them sit with nobles,
With the nobles of His people.
9 He makes the barren woman of the house sit
As a glad mother of children.
Praise Yah!
When Israel Went Out from Egypt
When Israel went out from Egypt,
The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,
2 Judah became His sanctuary,
Israel, His dominion.
3 The sea looked and fled;
The Jordan turned back.
4 The mountains skipped like rams,
The hills, like lambs.
5 What disturbs you, O sea, that you flee?
O Jordan, that you turn back?
6 O mountains, that you skip like rams?
O hills, like lambs?
7 Tremble, O earth, before the Lord,
Before the God of Jacob,
8 Who turned the rock into a pool of water,
The flint into a spring of water.
