诗篇 135
1 你们要赞美耶和华！ 你们要赞美耶和华的名！ 耶和华的仆人站在耶和华殿中； 站在我们 神殿院中的，你们要赞美他！
Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord's reputation! Praise the Lord, all you servants of the Lord
who worship in the house of the Lord, in the courts of our God.
3 你们要赞美耶和华！ 耶和华本为善； 要歌颂他的名， 因为这是美好的。
Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing praises to his character because it is wonderful!
4 耶和华拣选雅各归自己， 拣选以色列特作自己的子民。
For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself; Israel as his very own.
5 原来我知道耶和华为大， 也知道我们的主超乎万神之上。
I know how great the Lord is—our Lord is greater than all gods.
6 耶和华在天上，在地下， 在海中，在一切的深处， 都随自己的意旨而行。
The Lord does whatever he wants throughout heaven and earth, on the seas and in the ocean depths.
7 他使云雾从地极上腾， 造电随雨而闪， 从府库中带出风来。
He causes the clouds to rise all over the earth, he makes lightning flash and give rain, he sends the winds from his storehouses.
8 他将埃及头生的， 连人带牲畜都击杀了。
He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both human and animal.
9 埃及啊，他施行神迹奇事， 在你当中，在法老和他一切臣仆身上。
He did wonderful miracles among you in Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
10 他击杀许多的民， 又杀戮大能的王，
He struck down many nations, he killed powerful kings, such as
11 就是亚摩利王西宏和巴珊王噩， 并迦南一切的国王，
Sihon, king of the Amorites, Og, king of Bashan, and all the kings who ruled in Canaan.
12 将他们的地赏赐他的百姓以色列为业。
He handed over their lands to Israel, his special people, for them to possess.
13 耶和华啊，你的名存到永远！ 耶和华啊，你可记念的名存到万代！
Your reputation, Lord, stands forever; you, Lord, are remembered for all generations.
14 耶和华要为他的百姓伸冤， 为他的仆人后悔。
The Lord will vindicate his people; he will show compassion to those who follow him.
15 外邦的偶像是金的，银的， 是人手所造的；
The idols of the foreign nations are only objects of silver and gold, made by human hands.
16 有口却不能言， 有眼却不能看，
They have mouths, but can't speak; they have eyes, but can't see.
17 有耳却不能听， 口中也没有气息。
They have ears, but can't hear; they can't even breathe!
18 造他的要和他一样， 凡靠他的也要如此。
Those who make idols will become just like them, and so will everyone who trusts in them.
19 以色列家啊，你们要称颂耶和华！ 亚伦家啊，你们要称颂耶和华！
People of Israel, praise the Lord! Descendants of Aaron, praise the Lord!
20 利未家啊，你们要称颂耶和华！ 你们敬畏耶和华的，要称颂耶和华！
Levites, praise the Lord! Everyone who worships the Lord, praise the Lord!
21 住在耶路撒冷的耶和华 该从锡安受称颂。 你们要赞美耶和华！
Praise the Lord from Zion, for he lives in Jerusalem! Praise the Lord!
