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