135:1  Praise the Lord. Praise the name of the Lord; praise him, you servants of the Lord,
135:2  you who minister 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 that is pleasant.
135:4  For the Lord has chosen Jacob to be his own, Israel to be his treasured possession.
135:5  I know that the Lord is great, that our Lord is greater than all gods.
135:6  The Lord does whatever pleases him, in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all their depths.
135:7  He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth; he sends lightning with the rain and brings out the wind from his storehouses.
135:8  He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, the firstborn of people and animals.
135:9  He sent his signs and wonders into your midst, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
135:10  He struck down many nations and killed mighty kings –
135:11  Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan –
135:12  and he gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to his people Israel.
135:13  Your name, Lord, endures for ever, your renown, 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 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, nor is there breath in their mouths.
135:18  Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them.
135:19  All you Israelites, praise the Lord; house of Aaron, praise the Lord;
135:20  house of Levi, praise the Lord; you who fear him, praise the Lord.
135:21  Praise be to the Lord from Zion, to him who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the Lord.
