psalms 135

1 - Praise Yah!Praise The LORD's name!Praise him, you servants of The LORD,

2 - you who stand in The LORD's house,in the courts of our God's house.

3 - Praise Yah, for the LORD is good.Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant.

4 - For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself;Israel for his own possession.

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

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

7 - who causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth;who makes lightnings with the rain;who brings the wind out of his treasuries;

8 - Who struck the firstborn of Egypt,both of man and animal;

9 - Who sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt,on Pharaoh, and on all his servants;

10 - who struck many nations,and killed mighty kings,

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

12 - and gave their land for a heritage,a heritage to Israel, his people.

13 - Your name, The LORD, endures forever;your renown, The LORD, throughout all generations.

14 - For the LORD will judge his people,and have compassion on his servants.

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

16 - They have mouths, but they can't speak.They have eyes, but they can't see.

17 - They have ears, but they can't hear;neither is there any breath in their mouths.

18 - Those who make them will be like them;yes, everyone who trusts in them.

19 - House of Israel, praise The LORD!House of Aaron, praise The LORD!

20 - House of Levi, praise The LORD!You who fear The LORD, praise The LORD!

21 - Blessed be the LORD from Zion,Who dwells at Jerusalem.Praise Yah!
