Psalm 135 (WEBP)
[1] Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh’s name! Praise him, you servants of Yahweh,
[2] you who stand in Yahweh’s house, in the courts of our God’s house.
[3] Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant.
[4] For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession.
[5] For I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all gods.
[6] Whatever Yahweh 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, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh, throughout all generations.
[14] For Yahweh 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 Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh!
[20] House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who fear Yahweh, praise Yahweh!
[21] Blessed be Yahweh from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise Yah!

Psalm 135 (KJVS)
[1] Praise H1984 (8761) ye the Lord. H3050 Praise H1984 (8761) ye the name H8034 of the Lord; H3068 praise H1984 (8761) [him], O ye servants H5650 of the Lord. H3068
[2] Ye that stand H5975 (8802) in the house H1004 of the Lord, H3068 in the courts H2691 of the house H1004 of our God, H430
[3] Praise H1984 (8761) the Lord; H3050 for the Lord H3068 [is] good: H2896 sing praises H2167 (8761) unto his name; H8034 for [it is] pleasant. H5273
[4] For the Lord H3050 hath chosen H977 (8804) Jacob H3290 unto himself, [and] Israel H3478 for his peculiar treasure. H5459
[5] For I know H3045 (8804) that the Lord H3068 [is] great, H1419 and [that] our Lord H113 [is] above all gods. H430
[6] Whatsoever the Lord H3068 pleased, H2654 (8804) [that] did H6213 (8804) he in heaven, H8064 and in earth, H776 in the seas, H3220 and all deep places. H8415
[7] He causeth the vapours H5387 to ascend H5927 (8688) from the ends H7097 of the earth; H776 he maketh H6213 (8804) lightnings H1300 for the rain; H4306 he bringeth H3318 (8688) the wind H7307 out of his treasuries. H214
[8] Who smote H5221 (8689) the firstborn H1060 of Egypt, H4714 both of man H120 and beast. H929
[9] [Who] sent H7971 (8804) tokens H226 and wonders H4159 into the midst H8432 of thee, O Egypt, H4714 upon Pharaoh, H6547 and upon all his servants. H5650
[10] Who smote H5221 (8689) great H7227 nations, H1471 and slew H2026 (8804) mighty H6099 kings; H4428
[11] Sihon H5511 king H4428 of the Amorites, H567 and Og H5747 king H4428 of Bashan, H1316 and all the kingdoms H4467 of Canaan: H3667
[12] And gave H5414 (8804) their land H776 [for] an heritage, H5159 an heritage H5159 unto Israel H3478 his people. H5971
[13] Thy name, H8034 O Lord, H3068 [endureth] for ever; H5769 [and] thy memorial, H2143 O Lord, H3068 throughout all H1755 generations. H1755
[14] For the Lord H3068 will judge H1777 (8799) his people, H5971 and he will repent H5162 (8691) himself concerning his servants. H5650
[15] The idols H6091 of the heathen H1471 [are] silver H3701 and gold, H2091 the work H4639 of men’s H120 hands. H3027
[16] They have mouths, H6310 but they speak H1696 (8762) not; eyes H5869 have they, but they see H7200 (8799) not;
[17] They have ears, H241 but they hear H238 (8686) not; neither is there H3426 [any] breath H7307 in their mouths. H6310
[18] They that make H6213 (8802) them are like unto them: [so is] every one that trusteth H982 (8802) in them.
[19] Bless H1288 (8761) the Lord, H3068 O house H1004 of Israel: H3478 bless H1288 (8761) the Lord, H3068 O house H1004 of Aaron: H175
[20] Bless H1288 (8761) the Lord, H3068 O house H1004 of Levi: H3878 ye that fear H3373 the Lord, H3068 bless H1288 (8761) the Lord. H3068
[21] Blessed H1288 (8803) be the Lord H3068 out of Zion, H6726 which dwelleth H7931 (8802) at Jerusalem. H3389 Praise H1984 (8761) ye the Lord. H3050
Young’s Literal Translation
Psalm 135 (YLT)
[1] Praise ye Jah! Praise ye the name of Jehovah, Praise, ye servants of Jehovah,
[2] Who are standing in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God.
[3] Praise ye Jah! for Jehovah is good, Sing praise to His name, for it is pleasant.
[4] For Jacob hath Jah chosen for Himself, Israel for His peculiar treasure.
[5] For I have known that great is Jehovah, Yea, our Lord is above all gods.
[6] All that Jehovah pleased He hath done, In the heavens and in earth, In the seas and all deep places,
[7] Causing vapours to ascend from the end of the earth, Lightnings for the rain He hath made, Bringing forth wind from His treasures.
[8] Who smote the first-born of Egypt, From man unto beast.
[9] He sent tokens and wonders into thy midst, O Egypt, On Pharaoh and on all his servants.
[10] Who smote many nations, and slew strong kings,
[11] Even Sihon king of the Amorite, And Og king of Bashan, And all kingdoms of Canaan.
[12] And He gave their land an inheritance, An inheritance to Israel His people,
[13] O Jehovah, Thy name is to the age, O Jehovah, Thy memorial to all generations.
[14] For Jehovah doth judge His people, And for His servants comforteth Himself.
[15] The idols of the nations are silver and gold, Work of the hands of man.
[16] A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,
[17] Ears they have, and they give not ear, Nose-there is no breath in their mouth!
[18] Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.
[19] O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah, O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah,
[20] O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah, Those fearing Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.
[21] Blessed is Jehovah from Zion, Inhabiting Jerusalem-praise ye Jah!
