JPS - Psalms - 135

135:1  Hallelujah. Praise ye the name of HaShem; give praise, O ye servants of HaShem,

135:2  Ye that stand in the house of HaShem, in the courts of the house of our G-d.

135:3  Praise ye HaShem, for HaShem is good; sing praises unto His name, for it is pleasant.

135:4  For HaShem hath chosen Jacob unto Himself, and Israel for His own treasure.

135:5  For I know that HaShem is great, and that our L-rd is above all gods.

135:6  Whatsoever HaShem pleased, that hath He done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;

135:7  Who causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; He maketh lightnings for the rain; He bringeth forth the wind out of His treasuries.

135:8  Who smote the first-born of Egypt, both of man and beast.

135:9  He sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

135:10  Who smote many nations, and slew mighty kings:

135:11  Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan;

135:12  And gave their land for a heritage, a heritage unto Israel His people.

135:13  O HaShem, Thy name endureth for ever; thy memorial, O HaShem, throughout all generations.

135:14  For HaShem will judge His people, and repent Himself for His servants.

135:15  The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

135:16  They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

135:17  They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.

135:18  They that make them shall be like unto them; yea, every one that trusteth in them.

135:19  O house of Israel, bless ye HaShem; O house of Aaron, bless ye HaShem;

135:20  O house of Levi, bless ye HaShem; ye that fear HaShem, bless ye HaShem.

135:21  Blessed be HaShem out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
