135:1 Hallelujah! Praise the name of the Lord. Give praise, you servants of the Lord
135:2 who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God.
135:3 Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing praise to his name, for it is delightful.
135:4 For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel as his treasured possession.
135:5 For I know that the Lord is great; our Lord is greater than all gods.
135:6 The Lord does whatever he pleases in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all the depths.
135:7 He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain and brings the wind from his storehouses.
135:8 He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both people and animals.
135:9 He sent signs and wonders against you, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his officials.
135:10 He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings:
135:11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.
135:12 He gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to his people Israel.
135:13 Lord, your name endures forever, your reputation, Lord, through all generations.
135:14 For the Lord will vindicate his people and have compassion on his servants.
135:15 The idols of the nations are of silver and gold, made by human hands.
135:16 They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see.
135:17 They have ears but cannot hear; indeed, there is no breath in their mouths.
135:18 Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them.
135:19 House of Israel, bless the Lord! House of Aaron, bless the Lord!
135:20 House of Levi, bless the Lord! You who revere the Lord, bless the Lord!
135:21 Blessed be the Lord from Zion; he dwells in Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
