Psalms 136

1 Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good.

2 Give thanks to the God of gods.

3 Give thanks to the Lord of lords.

4 He alone does great wonders.

5 By His insight He made the heavens.

6 He spread out the earth upon the waters.

7 He made the great lights—

8 the sun to rule the day,

9 the moon and stars to govern the night.

10 He struck down the firstborn of Egypt

11 and brought Israel out from among them

12 with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm.

13 He divided the Red Sea in two

14 and led Israel through the midst,

15 but swept Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea.

16 He led His people through the wilderness.

17 He struck down great kings

18 and slaughtered mighty kings—

19 Sihon king of the Amorites

20 and Og king of Bashan—

21 and He gave their land as an inheritance,

22 a heritage to His servant Israel.

23 He remembered us in our low estate

24 and freed us from our enemies.

25 He gives food to every creature.

26 Give thanks to the God of heaven!
