Psalms 135

1 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD’s name! Praise him, you servants of the LORD,

Praise ye the Lord. Praise the Name of the Lord: ye seruants of the Lord, praise him.

2 you who stand in the LORD’s house, in the courts of our God’s house.

Ye that stande in the House of the Lord, and in the courtes of the House of our God,

3 Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant.

Praise ye the Lord: for the Lord is good: sing praises vnto his Name: for it is a comely thing.

4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession.

For the Lord hath chosen Iaakob to himselfe, and Israel for his chiefe treasure.

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

For I know that the Lord is great, and that our Lord is aboue all gods.

6 Whatever the LORD pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps.

Whatsoeuer pleased the Lord, that did hee in heauen and in earth, in the sea, and in all the depths.

7 He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings with the rain. He brings the wind out of his treasuries.

He bringeth vp the cloudes from the ends of the earth, and maketh the lightnings with ye raine: he draweth foorth the winde out of his treasures.

8 He struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal.

He smote the first borne of Egypt both of man and beast.

9 He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.

He hath sent tokens and wonders into the middes of thee, O Egypt, vpon Pharaoh, and vpon all his seruants.

10 He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings—

He smote many nations, and slew mightie Kings:

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

As Sihon King of the Amorites, and Og King of Bashan, and all the kingdomes of Canaan:

12 and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people.

And gaue their lande for an inheritance, euen an inheritance vnto Israel his people.

13 Your name, LORD, endures forever; your renown, LORD, throughout all generations.

Thy Name, O Lord, endureth for euer: O Lord, thy remembrance is from generation to generation.

14 For the LORD will judge his people and have compassion on his servants.

For the Lord will iudge his people, and be pacified towardes his seruants.

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

The idoles of the heathen are siluer and golde, euen the worke of mens handes.

16 They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see.

They haue a mouth, and speake not: they haue eyes and see not.

17 They have ears, but they can’t hear, neither is there any breath in their mouths.

They haue eares and heare not, neither is there any breath in their mouth.

18 Those who make them will be like them, yes, everyone who trusts in them.

They that make them, are like vnto them: so are all that trust in them.

19 House of Israel, praise the LORD! House of Aaron, praise the LORD!

Praise the Lord, ye house of Israel: praise the Lord, ye house of Aaron.

20 House of Levi, praise the LORD! You who fear the LORD, praise the LORD!

Praise the Lord, ye house of Leui: ye that feare the Lord, praise the Lord.

21 Blessed be the LORD from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!

Praised bee the Lord out of Zion, which dwelleth in Ierusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
