Psalms 135:8-21 ▼

8 He it was who struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both human beings and animals;

9 he sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.

10 He struck down many nations and killed mighty kings—

11 Sihon, king of the Amorites, and Og, king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan—

12 and gave their land as a heritage, a heritage to his people Israel.

13 Your name, O LORD, endures forever, your renown, O LORD, throughout all ages.

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

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

16 They have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see;

17 they have ears, but they do not hear, and there is no breath in their mouths.

18 Those who make them and all who trust them shall become like them.

19 O house of Israel, bless the LORD! O house of Aaron, bless the LORD!

20 O house of Levi, bless the LORD! You that fear the LORD, bless the LORD!

21 Blessed be the LORD from Zion, he who resides in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
