- Chapter 135 -

Your name, O Lord, endures forever

(Psalm 115:1-18)
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.

Your name, O Lord, endures forever

(Psalm 115:1-18)
1
Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD’s name! Praise him, you servants of the LORD,
2
you who stand in the LORD’s house, in the courts of our God’s house.
3
Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant.
4
For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession.
5
For I know that the LORD is great, that our Lord is above all gods.
6
Whatever the LORD pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps.
7
He 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.
8
He struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal.
9
He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.
10
He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings—
11
Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan—
12
and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people.
13
Your name, LORD, endures forever; your renown, LORD, throughout all generations.
14
For the LORD will judge his people and have compassion on his servants.
15
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
16
They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see.
17
They have ears, but they can’t hear, neither is there any breath in their mouths.
18
Those who make them will be like them, yes, everyone who trusts in them.
19
House of Israel, praise the LORD! House of Aaron, praise the LORD!
20
House of Levi, praise the LORD! You who fear the LORD, praise the LORD!
21
Blessed be the LORD from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
