Psalms 135
1 Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah,
Praise YAH! Praise the Name of YHWH, Praise, you servants of YHWH,
2 ye who stand in the house of Jehovah, in the courts of the house of our God.
Who are standing in the house of YHWH, In the courts of the house of our God.
3 Praise ye Jehovah, for Jehovah is good. Sing praises to his name, for it is pleasant.
Praise YAH! For YHWH [is] good, Sing praise to His Name, for [it is] pleasant.
4 For Jehovah has chosen Jacob to himself, Israel for his own possession.
For YAH has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure.
5 For I know that Jehovah is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
For I have known that YHWH [is] great, Indeed, our Lord [is] above all gods.
6 Whatever Jehovah pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps,
All that YHWH pleased He has done, In the heavens and in earth, In the seas and all deep places,
7 who causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth, who makes lightnings for the rain, who brings forth the wind out of his treasuries,
Causing vapors to ascend from the end of the earth, He has made lightnings for the rain, Bringing forth wind from His treasures.
8 who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast,
Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, From man to beast.
9 who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants,
He sent tokens and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, On Pharaoh and on all his servants.
10 who smote many nations, and killed mighty kings-
Who struck many nations, and slew strong kings,
11 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan-
Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan, And all kingdoms of Canaan.
12 and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel his people.
And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to His people Israel,
13 Thy name, O Jehovah, is forever, thy memorial, O Jehovah, throughout all generations.
O YHWH, Your Name [is] for all time, O YHWH, Your memorial from generation to generation.
14 For Jehovah will judge his people, and will relent concerning his servants.
For YHWH judges His people, And comforts Himself for His servants.
15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
The idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, Work of the hands of man.
16 They have mouths, but they speak not. They have eyes, but they see not.
They have a mouth, and they do not speak, They have eyes, and they do not see,
17 They have ears, but they hear not, nor is there any breath in their mouths.
They have ears, and they do not give ear, Nose—there is no breath in their mouth!
18 Those who make them shall be like them, yea, everyone who trusts in them.
Their makers are like them, Everyone who is trusting in them.
19 O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah. O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah.
O house of Israel, bless YHWH, O house of Aaron, bless YHWH,
20 O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah. Ye who fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.
O house of Levi, bless YHWH, Those fearing YHWH, bless YHWH.
21 Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, who dwells at Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.
Blessed [is] YHWH from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem—praise YAH!
