| Chapter 135 |
1 | Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah; Praise [him], O ye servants of Jehovah, |
2 | Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God. |
3 | Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good: Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant. |
4 | For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, [And] Israel for his own possession. |
5 | For I know that Jehovah is great, And that our Lord is above all gods. |
6 | Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps; |
7 | Who 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; |
8 | Who smote the first-born of Egypt, Both of man and beast; |
9 | Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants; |
10 | Who smote many nations, And slew mighty kings, |
11 | Sihon king of the Amorites, And Og king of Bashan, And all the kingdoms of Canaan, |
12 | And gave their land for a heritage, A heritage unto Israel his people. |
13 | Thy name, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; Thy memorial [name], O Jehovah, throughout all generations. |
14 | For Jehovah will judge his people, And repent himself concerning his servants. |
15 | The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men's hands. |
16 | They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not; |
17 | They have ears, but they hear not; Neither is there any breath in their mouths. |
18 | They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them. |
19 | O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah: O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah: |
20 | O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah: Ye that fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah. |
21 | Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, Who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah. Psalm 136 |
