Let them praise the name of the LORD; for his name alone is exalted: his glory is above the earth and heaven.
14 καὶ ὑψώσει κέρας λαοῦ αὐτοῦ ὕμνος πᾶσι τοῖς ὁσίοις αὐτοῦ τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ λαῷ ἐγγίζοντι αὐτῷ
And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
