Psalms 135
1 Praise Yahweh - praise [the] name of Yahweh praise O servants of Yahweh.
Praise Yahweh! You who (do work for/serve) Yahweh, praise him!
2 Who [are] standing in [the] house of Yahweh in [the] courts of [the] house of God our.
You who stand in the temple of Yahweh our God and in the surrounding courtyard, praise him [MTY]!
3 Praise Yahweh for [is] good Yahweh sing praises to name his for [it is] pleasant.
Praise Yahweh, because he does good things [for us]; sing to him [MTY], because he is kind [to us].
4 For Jacob he has chosen for himself Yahweh Israel to possession his.
He has chosen [us, the descendants of] Jacob; he has chosen [us] Israelis to belong to him [DOU].
5 For I I know that [is] great Yahweh and lord our more than all gods.
I know that Yahweh is great; he is greater than all the gods.
6 All that he desires Yahweh he does in the heavens and on the earth in the seas and all [the] deeps.
Yahweh does whatever he desires to do, in heaven and on the earth and in the seas/oceans, [down] to the bottom of the seas.
7 [he is] bringing up Clouds from [the] end of the earth lightning for the rain he makes [he is] bringing out wind from storehouses his.
He is the one who causes clouds to appear from very distant places on the earth; he sends lightning with the rain, and he brings the winds from the places where he stores them.
8 Who struck down [the] firstborn of Egypt from humankind unto animal[s].
He is the one who killed [all] the firstborn [males] in Egypt, the firstborn of people and of animals.
9 He sent - signs and wonders in [the] midst of you O Egypt on Pharaoh and on all servants his.
There he performed many kinds of miracles [DOU] to punish the king and all his officials.
10 Who struck down nations many and he killed kings mighty.
He destroyed many nations and the powerful kings [who ruled them]:
11 To Sihon - [the] king of the Amorites and to Og [the] king of Bashan and to all [the] kingdoms of Canaan.
Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, and Og, the king of Bashan [region], and all the other kings in Canaan [land].
12 And he gave land their an inheritance an inheritance to Israel people his.
Then he gave their land to [us] Israeli people to belong to us [forever].
13 O Yahweh name your [is] for ever O Yahweh remembrance your [is] to a generation and a generation.
Yahweh your name will endure forever, and people who are not yet born will remember the great things [that you have done].
14 For he vindicates Yahweh people his and on servants his he has compassion.
Yahweh, [you] declare that we your people (are innocent/have not done things that are wrong), and you are merciful to us.
15 [the] idols of The nations [are] silver and gold [the] work of [the] hands of humankind.
But the idols that the [other] people-groups [worship] are only [statues made of] silver and gold, things that humans have made.
16 A mouth [belongs] to them and not they speak eyes [belong] to them and not they see.
Their idols have mouths, but they cannot say [anything]; they have eyes, but they cannot see [anything].
17 Ears [belong] to them and not they give ear also there not there [is] breath in mouth their.
They have ears, but they cannot hear [anything], and they are not [even able to] breathe.
18 Like them they will be [those who] make them every [one] who [is] trusting in them.
The people who make those idols are as [powerless as] those idols, and those who trust in those idols [can accomplish no more than] their idols can!
19 O house of Israel bless Yahweh O house of Aaron bless Yahweh.
[My fellow] Israelis, praise Yahweh! You [priests] who are descended from Aaron, praise Yahweh!
20 O house of the Levites bless Yahweh O [those] fearing Yahweh bless Yahweh.
You [men] who are descended from Levi, [you who assist the priests], praise Yahweh! [All] you who revere Yahweh, praise him!
21 [be] blessed Yahweh - from Zion [who] dwells Jerusalem praise Yahweh.
Praise Yahweh in [the temple on] Zion [Hill] in Jerusalem, where he lives! Praise Yahweh!
