Psalmen 135
- 1Hallelujah. Praise ye the name of the LORD; give praise, O ye servants of the LORD,
- 2Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.
- 3Praise ye the LORD, for the LORD is good; sing praises unto His name, for it is pleasant.
- 4For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto Himself, and Israel for His own treasure.
- 5For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
- 6Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that hath He done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;
- 7Who causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; He maketh lightnings for the rain; He bringeth forth the wind out of His treasuries.
- 8Who smote the first-born of Egypt, both of man and beast.
- 9He sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.
- 10Who smote many nations, and slew mighty kings:
- 11Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan;
- 12And gave their land for a heritage, a heritage unto Israel His people.
- 13O LORD, Thy name endureth for ever; thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.
- 14For the LORD will judge His people, and repent Himself for His servants.
- 15The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
- 16They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
- 17They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.
- 18They that make them shall be like unto them; yea, every one that trusteth in them.
- 19O house of Israel, bless ye the LORD; O house of Aaron, bless ye the LORD;
- 20O house of Levi, bless ye the LORD; ye that fear the LORD, bless ye the LORD.
- 21Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
