bYou have made heaven,
cThe heaven of heavens, with dall their host,
The earth and everything on it,
The seas and all that is in them,
And You epreserve them all.
The host of heaven worships You.
Who chose aAbram,
And brought him out of Ur of the Chaldeans,
And gave him the name bAbraham;
And made a bcovenant with him
To give the land of the Canaanites,
The Hittites, the Amorites,
The Perizzites, the Jebusites,
And the Girgashites—
To give it to his descendants.
You chave performed Your words,
For You are righteous.
Against all his servants,
And against all the people of his land.
For You knew that they bacted proudly against them.
So You cmade a name for Yourself, as it is this day.
So that they went through the midst of the sea on the dry land;
And their persecutors You threw into the deep,
bAs a stone into the mighty waters.
And by night with a pillar of fire,
To give them light on the road
Which they should travel.
And spoke with them from heaven,
And gave them bjust ordinances and true laws,
Good statutes and commandments.
And commanded them precepts, statutes and laws,
By the hand of Moses Your servant.
