1Alleluia. At the going forth of Israel from Egypt, of the house of Jacob from a barbarous people,
2Judea became his sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.
3The sea saw and fled: Jordan was turned back.
4The mountains skipped like rams, and the hills like lambs.
5What ailed thee, O sea, that thou fleddest? and thou Jordan, that thou wast turned back?
6Ye mountains, that ye skipped like rams, and ye hills, like lambs?
7The earth trembled at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob;
8who turned the rock into pools of water, and the flint into fountains of water.
9Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to thy name give glory, because of thy mercy and thy truth;
10lest at any time the nations should say, Where is their God?
11But our God has done in heaven and on earth, whatsoever he has pleased.
12The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the works of men's hands.
13They have a mouth, but they cannot speak; they have eyes, but they cannot see:
14they have ears, but they cannot hear; they have noses, but they cannot smell;
15they have hands, but they cannot handle; they have feet, but they cannot walk: they cannot speak through their throat.
16Let those that make them become like to them, and all who trust in them.
17The house of Israel trusts in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.
18The house of Aaron trusts in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.

19They that fear the Lord trust in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.
20The Lord has remembered us, and blessed us: he has blessed the house of Israel, he has blessed the house of Aaron.
21He has blessed them that fear the Lord, both small and great.
22The Lord add blessings to you and to your children.
23Blessed are ye of the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.
24The heaven of heavens belongs to the Lord: but he has given the earth to the sons of men.
25The dead shall not praise thee, O Lord, nor any that go down to Hades.
26But we, the living, will bless the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.
