"Give thanks to the Lord for he is good. Give thanks to the God of gods. Give
thanks to the lord of lords. To Him who alone does great wonders. For by His
understanding made he heavens and spread out the earth upon the waters. Who made
the great light. To the one who remembered us in our lowest state and freed us
from our enemies and gives food to every creature. His love endures forever."
