Psalms 135
1 Hallelujah! Praise the name of Jehovah; praise, ye servants of Jehovah,
Praise YAH! Praise the Name of YHWH, Praise, you servants of YHWH,
2 Ye that 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 Jah; for Jehovah is good: sing psalms unto his name; for it is pleasant.
Praise YAH! For YHWH [is] good, Sing praise to His Name, for [it is] pleasant.
4 For Jah hath chosen Jacob unto 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 our Lord is above all gods.
For I have known that YHWH [is] great, Indeed, our Lord [is] above all gods.
6 Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, he hath done in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all deeps;
All that YHWH pleased He has done, In the heavens and in earth, In the seas and all deep places,
7 Who causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; who maketh lightnings for the rain; who bringeth 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 miracles 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 great nations, and slew 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 an inheritance, an inheritance unto Israel his people.
And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to His people Israel,
13 Thy name, O Jehovah, is for ever; thy memorial, O Jehovah, from generation to generation.
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 repent in favour of 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 a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;
They have a mouth, and they do not speak, They have eyes, and they do not see,
17 They have ears, and they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouth.
They have ears, and they do not give ear, Nose—there is no breath in their mouth!
18 They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.
Their makers are like them, Everyone who is trusting in them.
19 House of Israel, bless ye Jehovah; house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah;
O house of Israel, bless YHWH, O house of Aaron, bless YHWH,
20 House of Levi, bless ye Jehovah; ye that fear Jehovah, bless Jehovah.
O house of Levi, bless YHWH, Those fearing YHWH, bless YHWH.
21 Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem! Hallelujah!
Blessed [is] YHWH from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem—praise YAH!
