< 詩篇 135 >
1 你們要讚美耶和華! 你們要讚美耶和華的名! 耶和華的僕人站在耶和華殿中; 站在我們上帝殿院中的,你們要讚美他!
Praise Yahweh. Praise the name of Yahweh. Praise him, you servants of Yahweh,
you who stand in Yahweh's house, in the courtyards of the house of our God.
3 你們要讚美耶和華! 耶和華本為善; 要歌頌他的名, 因為這是美好的。
Praise Yahweh, for he is good; sing praises to his name, for it is pleasant to do so.
4 耶和華揀選雅各歸自己, 揀選以色列特作自己的子民。
For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel as his possession.
5 原來我知道耶和華為大, 也知道我們的主超乎萬神之上。
I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all gods.
6 耶和華在天上,在地下, 在海中,在一切的深處, 都隨自己的意旨而行。
Whatever Yahweh desires, he does in heaven, on earth, in the seas and all the ocean depths.
7 他使雲霧從地極上騰, 造電隨雨而閃, 從府庫中帶出風來。
He brings the clouds from far away, making lightning bolts accompany the rain and bringing the wind out of his storehouse.
He killed the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animals.
9 埃及啊,他施行神蹟奇事, 在你當中,在法老和他一切臣僕身上。
He sent signs and wonders into your midst, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
He attacked many nations and killed mighty kings,
11 就是亞摩利王西宏和巴珊王噩, 並迦南一切的國王,
Sihon king of the Amorites and Og king of Bashan and all the kingdoms of Canaan.
He gave us their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to Israel his people.
13 耶和華啊,你的名存到永遠! 耶和華啊,你可記念的名存到萬代!
Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, endures throughout all generations.
For Yahweh defends his people and has compassion on his servants.
The nations' idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
Those idols have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see;
they have ears, but they do not hear, nor is there breath in their mouths.
Those who make them are like them, as is everyone who trusts in them.
19 以色列家啊,你們要稱頌耶和華! 亞倫家啊,你們要稱頌耶和華!
Descendants of Israel, bless Yahweh; descendants of Aaron, bless Yahweh.
20 利未家啊,你們要稱頌耶和華! 你們敬畏耶和華的,要稱頌耶和華!
Descendants of Levi, bless Yahweh; you who honor Yahweh, bless Yahweh.
21 住在耶路撒冷的耶和華 該從錫安受稱頌。 你們要讚美耶和華!
Blessed be Yahweh in Zion, he who lives in Jerusalem. Praise Yahweh.
