Psalms 135
1 Hallelujah! Praise the name of the LORD; praise him, servants of the LORD.
2 You who are in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.
3 Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good; sing praise to his name, for it is pleasant.
4 For the LORD chose Jacob for himself, Israel as his treasured possession.
5 Yes, I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
6 Whatever the LORD pleased to do, he did—in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and in all the depths.
7 He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth; he makes lightning for the rain and brings the wind out of his storehouses.
8 It was he who struck the firstborn of Egypt, from people to animals.
9 He sent signs and wonders among you, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
10 It was he 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 He gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance for Israel, his people.
13 LORD, your name endures forever; LORD, your renown from generation to generation.
14 For the LORD will judge his people and have compassion on his servants.
15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, made by human hands.
16 They have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see.
17 They have ears, but they do not hear; there is not even breath in their mouths.
18 Those who make them will become like them, as will all who trust 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, he who dwells in Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
