Psalms 135

1 Praise YAH! Praise the Name of YHWH, Praise, you servants of YHWH,

Hallelujah. Praise ye the name of the LORD; give praise, O ye servants of the LORD,

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 the LORD, 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 the LORD, for the LORD is good; sing praises unto His name, for it is pleasant.

4 For YAH has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure.

For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto Himself, and Israel for His own treasure.

5 For I have known that YHWH [is] great, Indeed, our Lord [is] above all gods.

For I know that the LORD is great, and that 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 the LORD pleased, that hath He done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in 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; He maketh lightnings for the rain; He bringeth forth the wind out of His treasuries.

8 Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, From man to beast.

Who smote the first-born 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.

He sent signs and wonders 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 many 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 a heritage, a heritage unto Israel His people.

13 O YHWH, Your Name [is] for all time, O YHWH, Your memorial from generation to generation.

O LORD, Thy name endureth for ever; thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.

14 For YHWH judges His people, And comforts Himself for His servants.

For the LORD will judge His people, and repent Himself for 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 mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

17 They have ears, and they do not give ear, Nose—there is no breath in their mouth!

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

18 Their makers are like them, Everyone who is trusting in them.

They that make them shall be like unto them; yea, every one that trusteth in them.

19 O house of Israel, bless YHWH, O house of Aaron, bless YHWH,

O house of Israel, bless ye the LORD; O house of Aaron, bless ye the LORD;

20 O house of Levi, bless YHWH, Those fearing YHWH, bless YHWH.

O house of Levi, bless ye the LORD; ye that fear the LORD, bless ye the LORD.

21 Blessed [is] YHWH from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem—praise YAH!

Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
