| 135.1 |
Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh’s name! Praise him, you servants of Yahweh, |
| 135.2 |
you who stand in Yahweh’s house, in the courts of our God’s house. |
| 135.3 |
Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant. |
| 135.4 |
For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself; Israel for his own possession. |
| 135.5 |
For I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all gods. |
| 135.6 |
Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps; |
| 135.7 |
who causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth; who makes lightnings with the rain; who brings the wind out of his treasuries; |
| 135.8 |
Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal; |
| 135.9 |
Who sent signs and wonders into your midst, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants; |
| 135.10 |
who struck many nations, and killed mighty kings, |
| 135.11 |
Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan, |
| 135.12 |
and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people. |
| 135.13 |
Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, throughout all generations. |
| 135.14 |
For Yahweh will judge his people, and have compassion on 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 can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see. |
| 135.17 |
They have ears, but they can’t hear; neither is there any breath in their mouths. |
| 135.18 |
Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them. |
| 135.19 |
House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh! |
| 135.20 |
House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who fear Yahweh, praise Yahweh! |
| 135.21 |
Blessed be Yahweh from Zion, Who dwells at Jerusalem. Praise Yah! |
