Oh give thanks unto Jehovah; for he is good;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
Oh give thanks unto the God of gods;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
Oh give thanks unto the Lord of lords;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
To him who alone doeth great wonders;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
To him that by understanding made the heavens;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
To him that spread forth the earth above the waters;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
To him that made great lights;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
The sun to rule by day;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
The moon and stars to rule by night;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
To him that smote Egypt in their first-born;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
And brought out Israel from among them;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
With a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
To him that divided the Red Sea in sunder;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
And made Israel to pass through the midst of it;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
But {Hebrew: shook off.}overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
To him that led his people through the wilderness;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
To him that smote great kings;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
And slew famous kings;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
Sihon king of the Amorites;
For his lovingkindness endureth forever;
And Og king of Bashan;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
And gave their land for a heritage;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
Even a heritage unto Israel his servant;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
Who remembered us in our low estate;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever;
And hath delivered us from our adversaries;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever:
Who giveth food to all flesh;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
Oh give thanks unto the God of heaven;
For his lovingkindness endureth for ever.
Querverweise zu Psalm 136,7 Ps 136,7
The day is thine, the night also is thine:Thou hast prepared the {Hebrew: luminary.}light and the sun.
Thou hast set all the borders of the earth:Thou hast made summer and winter.
He appointed the moon for seasons:The sun knoweth his going down.
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years:
and let them be for lights in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
And God made the two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
And God set them in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth,
and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which Jehovah thy God hath allotted unto all the peoples under the whole heaven.
