Psalms 135

Praise for Jehovah’s wonderful works. Vanity of idols.

¹Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah; Praise [him], O ye servants of Jehovah,

²Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God.

³Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good: Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.

⁴For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, [And] Israel for his own possession.

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

⁶Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;

⁷Who 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;

⁸Who smote the first-born of Egypt, Both of man and beast;

⁹Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants;

¹⁰Who smote many nations, And slew mighty kings,

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

¹²And gave their land for a heritage, A heritage unto Israel his people.

¹³Thy name, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; Thy memorial [name], O Jehovah, throughout all generations.

¹⁴For Jehovah will judge his people, And repent himself concerning his servants.

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

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

¹⁷They have ears, but they hear not; Neither is there any breath in their mouths.

¹⁸They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.

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

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

²¹Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, Who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.
