PSALMS 135

1 Alleluia. Praise ye the name of the Lord; ye servants of the Lord, praise ye. 2 Ye that stand in the house of the Lord; in the halls or foreyards 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 chose Jacob to him-self; [and] Israel into possession to himself. 5 For I have known, that the Lord is great; and our God before all gods. 6 The Lord made all things, what-ever things he would, in heaven and in earth; in the sea, and in all depths of waters. 7 He led out clouds from the farthest part of [the] earth; and made light-nings into rain. Which bringeth forth winds from his treasures [or treasuries]; 8 which killed the first begotten things of Egypt, from man unto beast. 9 He sent out signs and great wonders, in the middle of thee, thou Egypt; into Pharaoh, and into all his servants. 10 Which smote many folks; and killed strong kings. 11 Sihon, the king of Amorites, and Og, the king of Bashan; and all the realms of Canaan. 12 And he gave the land of them heritage; to be heritage to Israel, his people. 13 Lord, thy name is without end; Lord, thy memorial be in generation and into generation. 14 For the Lord shall deem his people; and he shall be prayed in his servants. 15 The simulacra of heathen men be silver and gold; the works of the hands of men. 16 Those images have a mouth, and shall not speak; those [or they] have eyes, and shall not see. 17 Those [or they] have ears, and shall not hear; for there is no spirit in the mouth of them. 18 They that make those [things], be made like them; and all that trust in them. 19 The house of Israel, bless ye the Lord; the house of Aaron, bless ye the Lord. 20 The house of Levi, bless ye the Lord; ye that dread the Lord, bless ye the Lord. 21 Blessed be the Lord of Zion; that dwelleth in Jerusalem.
