Psalms 135

Psalms 135:1. Praise ye Jah! Praise ye the name of Jehovah, Praise, ye servants of Jehovah, Psalms 135:2 Who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God. Psalms 135:3 Praise ye Jah! for Jehovah [is] good, Sing praise to His name, for [it is] pleasant. Psalms 135:4 For Jacob hath Jah chosen for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure.

Psalms 135:5. For I have known that great [is] Jehovah, Yea, our Lord [is] above all gods.

Psalms 135:6 All that Jehovah pleased He hath done, In the heavens and in earth, In the seas and all deep places,

Psalms 135:7 Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth, Lightnings for the rain He hath made, Bringing forth wind from His treasures.

Psalms 135:8 Who smote the first-born of Egypt, From man unto beast.

Psalms 135:9 He sent tokens and wonders into thy midst, O Egypt, On Pharaoh and on all his servants.

Psalms 135:10 Who smote many nations, and slew strong kings,

Psalms 135:11 Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan, And all kingdoms of Canaan.

Psalms 135:12 And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to Israel His people, Psalms 135:13 O Jehovah, Thy name [is] to the age, O Jehovah, Thy memorial to all generations. Psalms 135:14 For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants comforteth Himself.

Psalms 135:15. The idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, Work of the hands of man.

Psalms 135:16 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not, Psalms 135:17 Ears they have, and they give not ear, Nose--there is no breath in their mouth! Psalms 135:18 Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.

Psalms 135:19 O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah, O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah, Psalms 135:20 O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah, Those fearing Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah. Psalms 135:21 Blessed [is] Jehovah from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem--praise ye Jah!
