⁴⁰ So stood the two companies of those who gave thanks in the house of God, and I, and the half of the rulers with me;

³¹ Then I brought up the princes of Judah on the wall, and appointed two great companies who gave thanks and went in procession. [One went] on the right hand on the wall toward the dung gate;

³² and after them went Hoshaiah, and half of the princes of Judah,

⁴ These things I remember, and pour out my soul within me, How I used to go with the crowd, and led them to the house of God, With the voice of joy and praise, a multitude keeping a holy day.

⁶ Sing praise to God, sing praises. Sing praises to our King, sing praises.

⁷ For God is the King of all the earth. Sing praises with understanding.

⁸ God reigns over the nations. God sits on his holy throne.

⁹ The princes of the peoples are gathered together, The people of the God of Abraham. For the shields of the earth belong to God. He is greatly exalted!

¹ > Look! Praise Yahweh, all you servants of Yahweh, Who stand by night in Yahweh's house!

² Lift up your hands in the sanctuary. Praise Yahweh!

³ May Yahweh bless you from Zion; Even he who made heaven and earth.
