Psalms 135

1Praise YAH! Praise the Name of YHWH, || Praise, you servants of YHWH,

2Who are standing in the house of YHWH, || In the courts of the house of our God.

3Praise YAH! For YHWH [is] good, || Sing praise to His Name, for [it is] pleasant.

4For YAH has chosen Jacob for Himself, || Israel for His peculiar treasure.

5For I have known that YHWH [is] great, || Indeed, our Lord [is] above all gods.

6All that YHWH pleased He has done, || In the heavens and in earth, || In the seas and all deep places,

7Causing vapors to ascend from the end of the earth, || He has made lightnings for the rain, || Bringing forth wind from His treasures.

8Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, || From man to beast.

9He sent tokens and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, || On Pharaoh and on all his servants.

10Who struck many nations, and slew strong kings,

11Even Sihon king of the Amorite, || And Og king of Bashan, || And all kingdoms of Canaan.

12And He gave their land an inheritance, || An inheritance to His people Israel,

13O YHWH, Your Name [is] for all time, || O YHWH, Your memorial from generation to generation.

14For YHWH judges His people, || And comforts Himself for His servants.

15The idols of the nations [are] silver and gold, || Work of the hands of man.

16They have a mouth, and they do not speak, || They have eyes, and they do not see,

17They have ears, and they do not give ear, || Nose—there is no breath in their mouth!

18Their makers are like them, || Everyone who is trusting in them.

19O house of Israel, bless YHWH, || O house of Aaron, bless YHWH,

20O house of Levi, bless YHWH, || Those fearing YHWH, bless YHWH.

21Blessed [is] YHWH from Zion, || Inhabiting Jerusalem—praise YAH!
