Psalms 135
- 1Praise ye Jah! Praise ye the name of Jehovah, Praise, ye servants of Jehovah,
- 2Who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God.
- 3Praise ye Jah! for Jehovah `is' good, Sing praise to His name, for `it is' pleasant.
- 4For Jacob hath Jah chosen for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure.
- 5For I have known that great `is' Jehovah, Yea, our Lord `is' above all gods.
- 6All that Jehovah pleased He hath done, In the heavens and in earth, In the seas and all deep places,
- 7Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth, Lightnings for the rain He hath made, Bringing forth wind from His treasures.
- 8Who smote the first-born of Egypt, From man unto beast.
- 9He sent tokens and wonders into thy midst, O Egypt, On Pharaoh and on all his servants.
- 10Who smote many nations, and slew strong kings,
- 11Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan, And all kingdoms of Canaan.
- 12And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to Israel His people,
- 13O Jehovah, Thy name `is' to the age, O Jehovah, Thy memorial to all generations.
- 14For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants comforteth Himself.
- 15The idols of the nations `are' silver and gold, Work of the hands of man.
- 16A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,
- 17Ears they have, and they give not ear, Nose -- there is no breath in their mouth!
- 18Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.
- 19O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah, O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah,
- 20O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah, Those fearing Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.
- 21Blessed `is' Jehovah from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem -- praise ye Jah!
