Psalms
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.
