BBE - Psalms - 135

135:1  Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.

135:2  You who are in the house of the Lord, and in the open spaces of the house of our God,

135:3  Give praise to Jah, for he is good: make melody to his name, for it is pleasing.

135:4  For the Lord has taken Jacob for himself, and Israel for his property.

135:5  I know that the Lord is great, and that our Lord is greater than all other gods.

135:6  The Lord has done whatever was pleasing to him, in heaven, and on the earth, in the seas and in all the deep waters.

135:7  He makes the mists go up from the ends of the earth; he makes thunder-flames for the rain; he sends out the winds from his store-houses.

135:8  He put to death the first-fruits of Egypt, of man and of beast.

135:9  He sent signs and wonders among you, O Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.

135:10  He overcame great nations, and put strong kings to death;

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, even for a heritage to Israel his people.

135:13  O Lord, your name is eternal; and the memory of you will have no end.

135:14  For the Lord will be judge of his people's cause; his feelings will be changed to his servants.

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

135:16  They have mouths, but no voice, they have eyes, but they do not see;

135:17  They have ears, but no hearing; and there is no breath in their mouths.

135:18  Those who make them are like them; and so is everyone who puts his hope in them.

135:19  Give praise to the Lord, O children of Israel: give praise to the Lord, O sons of Aaron:

135:20  Give praise to the Lord, O sons of Levi: let all the worshippers of the Lord give him praise.

135:21  Praise be to the Lord out of Zion, even to the Lord whose house is in Jerusalem, Let the Lord be praised.
