Israel

For they have devoured Jacob, and destroyed his homeland.

Sing aloud to God, our strength! Make a joyful shout to the God of Jacob!

For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.

LORD, God of Hosts, hear my prayer. Listen, God of Jacob. Selah.

LORD, you have been favorable to your land. You have restored the fortunes of Jacob.

The LORD loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

They say, “The LORD will not see, neither will Jacob’s God consider.”

The King’s strength also loves justice. You do establish equity. You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.

He made known his ways to Moses, his deeds to the children of Israel.

you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

and confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,

Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.

When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language;

Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

how he swore to the LORD, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:

until I find out a place for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”

For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself; Israel for his own possession.

Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD, his God:

He shows his word to Jacob; his statutes and his ordinances to Israel.

He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his holy ones; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise the LORD!

Many peoples shall go and say, “Come, let’s go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For out of Zion the law shall go out, and the LORD’s word from Jerusalem.

House of Jacob, come, and let us walk in the light of the LORD.

For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob, because they are filled from the east, with those who practice divination like the Philistines, and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.

I will wait for the LORD, who hides his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.

The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it falls on Israel.
