# Chapter 135
|
||
1 Praise the Lord!
|
||
Praise the name of the Lord;
|
||
Praise Him, O you servants of the Lord!
|
||
2 You who 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 to His name, for it is pleasant.
|
||
4 For the Lord has chosen Jacob for Himself,
|
||
Israel for His special treasure.
|
||
5 For I know that the Lord is great,
|
||
And our Lord is above all gods.
|
||
6 Whatever the Lord pleases He does,
|
||
In heaven and in earth,
|
||
In the seas and in all deep places.
|
||
7 He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth;
|
||
He makes lightning for the rain;
|
||
He brings the wind out of His treasuries.
|
||
8 He destroyed the firstborn of Egypt,
|
||
Both of man and beast.
|
||
9 He sent signs and wonders into the midst of you, O Egypt,
|
||
Upon Pharaoh and all his servants.
|
||
10 He defeated many nations
|
||
And slew mighty kings—
|
||
11 Sihon king of the Amorites,
|
||
Og king of Bashan,
|
||
And all the kingdoms of Canaan—
|
||
12 And gave their land as a heritage,
|
||
A heritage to Israel His people.
|
||
13 Your name, O Lord, endures forever,
|
||
Your fame, O Lord, throughout all generations.
|
||
14 For the Lord will judge His people,
|
||
And He will 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 do not speak;
|
||
Eyes they have, but they do not see;
|
||
17 They have ears, but they do not hear;
|
||
Nor is there any breath in their mouths.
|
||
18 Those who make them are like them;
|
||
So is everyone who trusts 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!
|
||
You who fear the Lord, bless the Lord!
|
||
21 Blessed be the Lord out of Zion,
|
||
Who dwells in Jerusalem!
|
||
Praise the Lord! |
