| Chapter 135 |
1 |
Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah; Praise [him], O ye servants of Jehovah,
|
2 |
Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God.
|
3 |
Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good: Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.
|
4 |
For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, [And] Israel for his own possession.
|
5 |
For I know that Jehovah is great, And that our Lord is above all gods.
|
6 |
Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;
|
7 |
Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; Who maketh lightnings for the rain; Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries;
|
8 |
Who smote the first-born of Egypt, Both of man and beast;
|
9 |
Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants;
|
10 |
Who smote many nations, And slew mighty kings,
|
11 |
Sihon king of the Amorites, And Og king of Bashan, And all the kingdoms of Canaan,
|
12 |
And gave their land for a heritage, A heritage unto Israel his people.
|
13 |
Thy name, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; Thy memorial [name], O Jehovah, throughout all generations.
|
14 |
For Jehovah will judge his people, And repent himself concerning his servants.
|
15 |
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;
|
17 |
They have ears, but they hear not; Neither is there any breath in their mouths.
|
18 |
They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.
|
19 |
O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah: O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah:
|
20 |
O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah: Ye that fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.
|
21 |
Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, Who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah. Psalm 136
