The Psalms

Psalm 135

 135:1Praise ye Jehovah.

 Praise ye the name of Jehovah;

 Praise him, O ye servants of Jehovah,

 135:2Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah,

 In the courts of the house of our God.

 135:3Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good:

 Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

 135:4For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself,

 And Israel for his own possession.

 135:5For I know that Jehovah is great,

 And that our Lord is above all gods.

 135:6Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done,

 In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;

 135:7Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;

 Who maketh lightnings for the rain;

 Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries;

 135:8Who smote the first-born of Egypt,

 Both of man and beast;

 135:9Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt,

 Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants;

 135:10Who smote many nations,

 And slew mighty kings,

 135:11Sihon king of the Amorites,

 And Og king of Bashan,

 And all the kingdoms of Canaan,

 135:12And gave their land for a heritage,

 A heritage unto Israel his people.

 135:13Thy name, O Jehovah, endureth for ever;

 Thy memorial name, O Jehovah, throughout all generations.

 135:14For Jehovah will judge his people,

 And repent himself concerning his servants.

  135:15The idols of the nations are silver and gold,

 The work of men's hands.

 135:16They have mouths, but they speak not;

 Eyes have they, but they see not;

 135:17They have ears, but they hear not;

 Neither is there any breath in their mouths.

 135:18They that make them shall be like unto them;

 Yea, every one that trusteth in them.

 135:19O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah:

 O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah:

 135:20O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah:

 Ye that fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.

 135:21Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion,

 Who dwelleth at Jerusalem.

 Praise ye Jehovah.
