20and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Abram gave him a tenth of all.

21Miriam answered them, “Sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.”

1David spoke to Yahweh the words of this song in the day that Yahweh delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul:

2and he said, “Yahweh is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer, even mine;

3God, my rock, in him I will take refuge; my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge. My savior, you save me from violence.

4I will call on Yahweh, who is worthy to be praised: So shall I be saved from my enemies.

30and to stand every morning to thank and praise Yahweh, and likewise in the evening;

13when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking Yahweh; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised Yahweh, saying, “For he is good; for his loving kindness endures forever!” then the house was filled with a cloud, even Yahweh’s house,

17I will give thanks to Yahweh according to his righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of Yahweh Most High.

2From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength, because of your adversaries, that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.

11Sing praises to Yahweh, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.

13Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.

22I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the assembly, I will praise you.

23You who fear Yahweh, praise him! All you descendants of Jacob, glorify him! Stand in awe of him, all you descendants of Israel!

25Of you comes my praise in the great assembly. I will pay my vows before those who fear him.

6Blessed be Yahweh, because he has heard the voice of my petitions.

7Yahweh is my strength and my shield. My heart has trusted in him, and I am helped. Therefore my heart greatly rejoices. With my song I will thank him.

4Sing praise to Yahweh, you saints of his. Give thanks to his holy name.

11Be glad in Yahweh, and rejoice, you righteous! Shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart!

1Rejoice in Yahweh, you righteous! Praise is fitting for the upright.

2Give thanks to Yahweh with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings.

3Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy!

23Whoever offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving glorifies me, and prepares his way so that I will show God’s salvation to him.”

3Because your loving kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise you.

4So I will bless you while I live. I will lift up my hands in your name.

5My soul shall be satisfied as with the richest food. My mouth shall praise you with joyful lips,

6when I remember you on my bed, and think about you in the night watches.

8Praise our God, you peoples! Make the sound of his praise heard,

4Blessed are those who dwell in your house. They are always praising you. Selah.

1Praise Yah! Praise, you servants of Yahweh, praise Yahweh’s name.

2Blessed be Yahweh’s name, from this time forward and forever more.

7I will give thanks to you with uprightness of heart, when I learn your righteous judgments.

13Surely the righteous will give thanks to your name. The upright will dwell in your presence.

30When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

46Mary said, “My soul magnifies the Lord.

47My spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior,

48for he has looked at the humble state of his handmaid. For behold, from now on, all generations will call me blessed.

49For he who is mighty has done great things for me. Holy is his name.

50His mercy is for generations of generations on those who fear him.

51He has shown strength with his arm. He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52He has put down princes from their thrones. And has exalted the lowly.

53He has filled the hungry with good things. He has sent the rich away empty.

54He has given help to Israel, his servant, that he might remember mercy,

55As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and his offspring forever.”

67His father, Zacharias, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,

68“Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, for he has visited and worked redemption for his people;

69and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David

70(as he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets who have been from of old),

71salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all who hate us;

72to show mercy towards our fathers, to remember his holy covenant,

73the oath which he spoke to Abraham, our father,

74to grant to us that we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, should serve him without fear,

75In holiness and righteousness before him all the days of our life.

13Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God, and saying,

14“Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace, good will toward men.”

20The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.

10Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.”

13Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises.

3Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy became our father again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

25to God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen.
