Praise the name of the Lord,
give praise, O #See Ps. 113:1servants of the Lord,
2who #[See Ps. 134:1 above] stand in the house of the Lord,
in #Ps. 92:13the courts of the house of our God!
3Praise the Lord, for #See Ps. 100:5 the Lord is good;
sing to his name, #Ps. 147:1; [Ps. 52:9]for it is pleasant!#135:3 Or for he is beautiful
4For the Lord has #Deut. 7:6, 7; 10:15; See Ps. 105:6 chosen Jacob for himself,
Israel as his #Ex. 19:5own possession.
5For I know that #Ps. 95:3the Lord is great,
and that our Lord is above all gods.

Ps. 115:3
Whatever the Lord pleases, he does,
in heaven and on earth,
in the seas and all deeps.
7 #
Jer. 10:13; 51:16 He it is who makes the clouds rise at the end of the earth,
who #[Job 28:25, 26; 38:25; Zech. 10:1] makes lightnings for the rain
and brings forth the wind from his #Job 38:22storehouses.
8He it was who #See Ps. 78:51struck down the firstborn of Egypt,
both of man and of beast;
9who in your midst, O Egypt,
sent #Deut. 6:22signs and wonders
against Pharaoh and all his servants;
10 # For ver. 10-12, see Ps. 136:17-22 who struck down many nations
and killed mighty kings,
11 #
Deut. 29:7; See Num. 21:21-26 Sihon, king of the Amorites,
and #See Num. 21:33-35 Og, king of Bashan,
and #See Josh. 12:7-24all the kingdoms of Canaan,
12and #Deut. 29:8; See Ps. 78:55gave their land as a heritage,
a heritage to his people Israel.
13 #
Ex. 3:15 Your name, O Lord, endures forever,
#
Ps. 102:12
your renown,#135:13 Or remembrance O Lord, throughout all ages.
14 #
Deut. 32:36 For the Lord will vindicate his people
and #See Ps. 90:13have compassion on his servants.
15 # For ver. 15-18, see Ps. 115:4-8 The idols of the nations are silver and gold,
the work of human hands.
16They have mouths, but do not speak;
they have eyes, but do not see;
17they have ears, but do not hear,
nor is there any breath in their mouths.
18Those who make them become like them,
so do all who trust in them.
19 # See Ps. 115:9 O house of Israel, bless the Lord!
O house of Aaron, bless the Lord!
20O house of Levi, bless the Lord!
You who fear the Lord, bless the Lord!
21Blessed be the Lord #Ps. 128:5 from Zion,
he who #Ps. 132:13, 14 dwells in Jerusalem!
# ver. 1 Praise the Lord!

Psalms 135
135
1Praise Yah!
Praise Yahweh’s name!
Praise him, you servants of Yahweh,
2you who stand in Yahweh’s house,
in the courts of our God’s house.
3Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good.
Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant.
4For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself,
Israel for his own possession.
5For I know that Yahweh is great,
that our Lord is above all gods.
6Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done,
in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps.
7He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth.
He makes lightnings with the rain.
He brings the wind out of his treasuries.
8He struck the firstborn of Egypt,
both of man and animal.
9He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt,
on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.
10He struck many nations,
and killed mighty kings—
11Sihon king of the Amorites,
Og king of Bashan,
and all the kingdoms of Canaan—
12and gave their land for a heritage,
a heritage to Israel, his people.
13Your name, Yahweh, endures forever;
your renown, Yahweh, throughout all generations.
14For Yahweh will judge his people
and have compassion on his servants.
15The idols of the nations are silver and gold,
the work of men’s hands.
16They have mouths, but they can’t speak.
They have eyes, but they can’t see.
17They have ears, but they can’t hear,
neither is there any breath in their mouths.
18Those who make them will be like them,
yes, everyone who trusts in them.
19House of Israel, praise Yahweh!
House of Aaron, praise Yahweh!
20House of Levi, praise Yahweh!
You who fear Yahweh, praise Yahweh!
21Blessed be Yahweh from Zion,
who dwells in Jerusalem.
Praise Yah!
