< Psalms 135 >

1 Praise YAH! Praise the Name of YHWH, Praise, you servants of YHWH,
Hallelujah! Praise the name of Jehovah; praise, ye servants of Jehovah,
2 Who are standing in the house of YHWH, 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 YAH! For YHWH [is] good, Sing praise 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 YAH has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure.
For Jah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, Israel for his own possession.
5 For I have known that YHWH [is] great, Indeed, our Lord [is] above all gods.
For I know that Jehovah is great, and our Lord is above all gods.
6 All that YHWH pleased He has done, In the heavens 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 Causing vapors to ascend from the end of the earth, He has made lightnings for the rain, Bringing forth wind from His treasures.
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 struck the firstborn of Egypt, From man to beast.
Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast;
9 He sent tokens and wonders into your midst, 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 struck many nations, and slew strong kings,
Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings,
11 Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan, And all kingdoms of Canaan.
Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan;
12 And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to His people Israel,
And gave their land for an inheritance, an inheritance unto Israel his people.
13 O YHWH, Your Name [is] for all time, O YHWH, Your memorial from generation to generation.
Thy name, O Jehovah, is for ever; thy memorial, O Jehovah, from generation to generation.
14 For YHWH judges His people, And comforts Himself for His servants.
For Jehovah will judge his people, and will repent in favour of his servants.
15 The idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, Work of the hands of man.
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:
16 They have a mouth, and they do not speak, They have eyes, and they do not see,
They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;
17 They have ears, and they do not give ear, Nose—there is no breath in their mouth!
They have ears, and they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouth.
18 Their makers are like them, Everyone who is trusting in them.
They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.
19 O house of Israel, bless YHWH, O house of Aaron, bless YHWH,
House of Israel, bless ye Jehovah; house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah;
20 O house of Levi, bless YHWH, Those fearing YHWH, bless YHWH.
House of Levi, bless ye Jehovah; ye that fear Jehovah, bless Jehovah.
21 Blessed [is] YHWH from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem—praise YAH!
Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem! Hallelujah!
