Psalms 135:2
1 Hallelujah! Praise the name of the LORD. Give praise, O servants of the LORD,
who stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.
3 Hallelujah, for the LORD is good; sing praises to His name, for it is lovely.
4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob as His own, Israel as His treasured possession.
