For all the gods of the nations are worthless, but the Lord made the heavens.

Jeroboam appointed his own priests to serve at the worship centers and to lead in the worship of the goat idols and calf idols he had made.

He followed in the footsteps of the kings of Israel; he also made images of the Baals.

He does great and unsearchable things, marvelous things without number;

God thunders with his voice in marvelous ways; he does great things beyond our understanding.

They will come and tell about his saving deeds; they will tell a future generation what he has accomplished.

Your tongue carries out your destructive plans; it is as effective as a sharp razor, O deceiver.

The Lord God, the God of Israel, deserves praise! He alone accomplishes amazing things!

You are the God who does amazing things; you have revealed your strength among the nations.

He did amazing things in the sight of their ancestors, in the land of Egypt, in the region of Zoan.

Do to them as you did to Midian – as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River!

For all the gods of the nations are worthless, but the Lord made the sky.

He does not deal with us as our sins deserve; he does not repay us as our misdeeds deserve.

Recall the miraculous deeds he performed, his mighty acts and the judgments he decreed,

How blessed are those who promote justice, and do what is right all the time!

the Lord’s right hand gives victory, the Lord’s right hand conquers.

This is the day the Lord has brought about. We will be happy and rejoice in it.

O fire and hail, snow and clouds, O stormy wind that carries out his orders,

before he made the earth and its fields, or the beginning of the dust of the world.

The one who is lazy becomes poor, but the one who works diligently becomes wealthy.
