Psalms 135

1 Praise you the LORD. Praise you the name of the LORD; praise him, O you servants of the LORD.

Praise ye Yah, Praise ye the Name of Yahweh, Praise, O ye servants of Yahweh;

2 You that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.

Who stand In the house of Yahweh, In the courts of the house of our God.

3 Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises to his name; for it is pleasant.

Praise ye Yah, For good is Yahweh, Sing praises to his Name, For it is full of delight;

4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob to himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.

For, Jacob, hath Yah chosen for himself, Israel, for his own treasure.

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

For, I, know that great is Yahweh, yea, our Lord, is beyond all gods.

6 Whatever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.

Whatsoever Yahweh hath pleased, he hath done, —in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas, and all resounding deeps:

7 He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he makes lightning for the rain; he brings the wind out of his treasuries.

Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth, —Lightnings for the rain, hath he made, bringing forth wind out of his treasuries.

8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man, and of beast;

9 Who sent tokens and wonders into the middle of you, O Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.

Sent signs and wonders into thy midst, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings:

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

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

12 And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage to Israel his people.

And gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to Israel his people.

13 Your name, O LORD, endures for ever; and your memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.

O Yahweh! thy Name, is age-abiding, —O Yahweh! thy memorial, is to generation after generation.

14 For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.

For Yahweh will vindicate his people, —and, on his servants, have compassion.

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

The idols of the nations, are silver and gold, the work of the hands of men:

16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

A mouth, have they, 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.

Ears, have they, but they hear not, Nose, —there is no breath in their mouth.

18 They that make them are like to them: so is every one that trusts in them.

Like unto them, shall be they who make them, every one who trusteth in them.

19 Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:

O house of Israel! bless Yahweh, O house of Aaron! bless Yahweh;

20 Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: you that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.

O house of Levi! bless Yahweh, Ye that revere Yahweh! bless Yahweh.

21 Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwells at Jerusalem. Praise you the LORD.

Blessed be Yahweh out of Zion, Who inhabiteth Jerusalem, Praise ye Yah!
