Psalms 135:8-21 ▼

8 He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both people and animals.

9 He sent signs and wonders against you, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his officials.

10 He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings:

11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.

12 He gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to his people Israel.

13 LORD, your name endures forever, your reputation, LORD, through all generations.

14 For the LORD will vindicate his people and have compassion on his servants.

15 The idols of the nations are of silver and gold, made by human hands.

16 They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see.

17 They have ears but cannot hear; indeed, there is no breath in their mouths.

18 Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them.

19 House of Israel, bless the LORD! House of Aaron, bless the LORD!

20 House of Levi, bless the LORD! You who revere the LORD, bless the LORD!

21 Blessed be the LORD from Zion; he dwells in Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
