Psalms 135

1 Praise you the LORD. Praise you the name of the LORD; praise him, O you servants of the LORD.

Hallelujah! Praise the name of Jehovah; praise, ye servants of Jehovah,

2 You that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.

Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, in the courts of the house of our God.

3 Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises to his name; for it is pleasant.

Praise ye Jah; for Jehovah is good: sing psalms unto his name; for it is pleasant.

4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob to himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.

For Jah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, Israel for his own possession.

5 For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.

For I know that Jehovah is great, and our Lord is above all gods.

6 Whatever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.

Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, he hath done in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all deeps;

7 He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he makes lightning for the rain; he brings the wind out of his treasuries.

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:

8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast;

9 Who sent tokens and wonders into the middle of you, O Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.

Who sent signs and miracles into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants;

10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings,

11 Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:

Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan;

12 And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage to Israel his people.

And gave their land for an inheritance, an inheritance unto Israel his people.

13 Your name, O LORD, endures for ever; and your memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.

Thy name, O Jehovah, is for ever; thy memorial, O Jehovah, from generation to generation.

14 For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.

For Jehovah will judge his people, and will repent in favour of his servants.

15 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:

16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;

17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.

They have ears, and they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouth.

18 They that make them are like to them: so is every one that trusts in them.

They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.

19 Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:

House of Israel, bless ye Jehovah; house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah;

20 Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: you that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.

House of Levi, bless ye Jehovah; ye that fear Jehovah, bless Jehovah.

21 Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwells at Jerusalem. Praise you the LORD.

Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem! Hallelujah!
