1. Psalm 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. to him who alone does great wonders,
5. who by his understanding made the heavens,
6. who spread out the earth upon the waters,
7. who made the great lights--
8. the sun to govern the day,
9. the moon and stars to govern the night;
10. to him who struck down the firstborn of Egypt
11. and brought Israel out from among them
12. with a mighty hand and outstretched arm;
13. to him who divided the Red Sea [1] asunder
14. and brought Israel through the midst of it,
15. but swept Pharaoh and his army into the Red Sea;
16. to him who led his people through the desert,
17. who struck down great kings,
18. and killed mighty kings--
19. Sihon king of the Amorites
20. and Og king of Bashan--
21. and gave their land as an inheritance,
22. an inheritance to his servant Israel;
23. to the One who remembered us in our low estate
24. and freed us from our enemies,
25. and who gives food to every creature.
26. Give thanks to the God of heaven.
