Psalms 135
PSAL. CXXXV.
1Praise Yah. Praise ye the name of Yhwh; praise him, O ye servants of Yhwh. 2Ye that stand in the house of Yhwh, in the courts of the house of our God, 3Praise Yah; for Yhwh is good: sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant. 4For Yah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure. 5For I know that Yhwh is great, and that our Lord is above all gods. 6Whatsoever Yhwh pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places. 7He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries. 8Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast. ▼▼ both…: Heb. from man unto beast.
9Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants. 10Who smote great 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 an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people. 13Thy name, O Yhwh, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O Yhwh, throughout all generations. ▼▼ throughout…: Heb. to generation and generation.
14For Yhwh will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants. 15The idols of the heathen 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 are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth in them. 19Bless Yhwh, O house of Israel: bless Yhwh, O house of Aaron: 20Bless Yhwh, O house of Levi: ye that fear Yhwh, bless Yhwh. 21Blessed be Yhwh out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
