Chapter 135 |
| 1 | Praise ye the
LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye servants of the
LORD. |
| 2 |
Ye that stand 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 praises
unto his name; for it is pleasant. |
| 4 | For the LORD hath chosen Jacob
unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure. |
| 5 | For I know
that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods. |
| 6 |
Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas,
and all deep places. |
| 7 | He 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. |
| 8 | Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man
and beast. |
| 9
| Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O
Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants. |
| 10 | Who smote
great nations, and slew mighty kings; |
| 11 | Sihon king of the Amorites,
and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan: |
| 12 | And gave
their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people. |
| 13 | Thy
name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD, throughout all
generations. |
|
14 | For the LORD will judge his people, and he will
repent himself concerning his servants. |
|
15 | The idols of the heathen
are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. |
| 16 | They have
mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not; |
| 17 | They
have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their
mouths. |
| 18
| They that make them are like unto them: so is every one
that trusteth in them. |
| 19 | Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the
LORD, O house of Aaron: |
| 20 | Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that
fear the LORD, bless the LORD. |
| 21 | Blessed be the LORD out of
Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD. |
