8 [He it is] who smote the first-born of Egypt, both of man and of cattle;

17 Ears they have, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouth.
They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there [any] breath in their mouths.
18 Like them are those that make them, every one that trusteth in them.
They that make them are like unto them: [so is] every one that trusteth in them.
19 O house of Israel, bless ye the Lord; O house of Aaron, bless ye the Lord.
Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:
20 O house of Levi, bless ye the Lord; ye that fear the Lord, bless the Lord.
Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.
21 Blessed be the Lord out of Zion, even he that resideth at Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
