Psalms 117 WBT

Summary: The shortest chapter in the entire Bible, just two verses, issuing a universal summons to worship: "O praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people" (v. 1). Its brief reasoning is that God's "merciful kindness" toward Israel is great and his truth endures "for ever" (v. 2), making this tiny psalm a concentrated statement of praise extended beyond Israel to every nation.

1O praise the LORD, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.

2For his merciful kindness is great towards us: and the truth of the LORD [endureth] for ever. Praise ye the LORD.
