Psalms 135

1 Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah. Praise, O ye servants of Jehovah,

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

2 ye who stand in the house of Jehovah, in the courts of the house of our God.

All of you that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.

3 Praise ye Jehovah, for Jehovah is good. Sing praises to his name, for it is pleasant.

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

4 For Jehovah has chosen Jacob to himself, Israel for his own possession.

For the LORD has chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his exclusive treasure.

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

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

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

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

7 who causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth, who makes lightnings for the rain, who brings forth the wind out of his treasuries,

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

8 who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast,

Who stroke the firstborn 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,

Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of you, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

10 who smote many nations, and killed mighty kings-

Who stroke 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 a heritage, a heritage to Israel his people.

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

13 Thy name, O Jehovah, is forever, thy memorial, O Jehovah, throughout all generations.

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

14 For Jehovah will judge his people, and will relent concerning his servants.

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

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

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

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

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

17 They have ears, but they hear not, nor is there any breath in their mouths.

They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.

18 Those who make them shall be like them, yea, everyone who trusts in them.

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

19 O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah. O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah.

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

20 O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah. Ye who fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.

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

21 Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, who dwells at Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.

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