| 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 --
