| Chapter 134 |
1 | Praise ye the name of the Lord: O you his servants, praise the Lord: |
2 | You that stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God. |
3 | Praise ye the Lord, for the Lord is good: sing ye to his name, for it is sweet. |
4 | For the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto himself: Israel for his own possession. |
5 | For I have known that the Lord is great, and our God is above all gods. |
6 | Whatsoever the Lord hath pleased he hath done, in heaven, in earth, in the sea, and in all the deeps. |
7 | He bringeth up clouds from the end of the earth: he hath made lightnings for the rain. He bringeth forth winds out of his stores: |
8 | He slew the firstborn of Egypt from man even unto beast. |
9 | He sent forth signs and wonders in the midst of thee, O Egypt: upon Pharao, and upon all his servants. |
10 | He smote many nations, and slew mighty kings: |
11 | Sehon king of the Amorrhites, and Og king of Basan, and all the kingdoms of Chanaan. |
12 | And gave their land for an inheritance, for an inheritance to his people Israel. |
13 | Thy name, O Lord, is for ever: thy memorial, O Lord, unto all generations. |
14 | For the Lord will judge his people, and will be entreated in favour of his servants. |
15 | The idols of the Gentiles are silver and gold, the works of men's hands. |
16 | They have a mouth, but they speak not: they have eyes, but they see not. |
17 | They have ears, but they hear not: neither is there any breath in their mouths. |
18 | Let them that make them be like to them: and 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: you that fear the Lord, bless the Lord. |
21 | Blessed be the Lord out of Sion, who dwelleth in Jerusalem. |
