Chapter 135

1: Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise him, O ye servants of the LORD.

2: Ye that 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 unto his name; for it is pleasant.

4: For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.

5: For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.

6: Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.

7: 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.

8: Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.

9: Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.

10: Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

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

12: And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage unto Israel his people.

13: Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD, throughout allgenerations.

14: For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.

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

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

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

18: They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth 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: ye that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.

21: Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
