2 Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name; worship Jehovah in holy splendour.
And he consulted with the people, and appointed singers to Jehovah, and those that should praise in holy splendour, as they went forth before the armed men, and say, Give thanks to Jehovah; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever!
And let the beauty of Jehovah our God be upon us; and establish thou the work of our hands upon us: yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it.
Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in holy splendour: from the womb of the morning [shall come] to thee the dew of thy youth.
Give unto Jehovah, ye families of peoples, Give unto Jehovah glory and strength! Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name! Bring an oblation, and come before him: Worship Jehovah in holy splendour.
Majesty and splendour are before him; strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
For thou, Jehovah, art the Most High above all the earth; thou art exalted exceedingly above all gods.
From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same, let Jehovah's name be praised. Jehovah is high above all nations, his glory above the heavens. Who is like unto Jehovah our God, who hath placed his dwelling on high; Who humbleth himself to look on the heavens and on the earth?
Great is Jehovah, and exceedingly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall laud thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts. I will speak of the glorious splendour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works. And they shall tell of the might of thy terrible acts; and thy great deeds will I declare. They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
