Psalm 135 - Darby English Bible with Hebrew

1 Hallelujah! Praise the name of Jehovah; praise, ye servants of Jehovah,

1 הַ֥לְלוּ יָ֨הּ׀ הַֽ֭לְלוּ אֶת־שֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֑ה הַֽ֝לְלוּ עַבְדֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃

2 Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, in the courts of the house of our God.

2 עֹֽמְדִים בְּבֵ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה בְּ֝חַצְרֹ֗ות בֵּ֣ית אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃

3 Praise ye Jah; for Jehovah is good: sing psalms unto his name; for it is pleasant.

3 הַֽ֭לְלוּ־יָהּ כִּי־טֹ֣וב יְהוָ֑ה זַמְּר֥וּ לִ֝שְׁמֹ֗ו כִּ֣י נָעִֽים׃

4 For Jah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, Israel for his own possession.

4 כִּֽי־יַעֲקֹ֗ב בָּחַ֣ר לֹ֣ו יָ֑הּ יִ֝שְׂרָאֵ֗ל לִסְגֻלָּתֹֽו׃

5 For *I* know that Jehovah is great, and our Lord is above all gods.

5 כִּ֤י אֲנִ֣י יָ֭דַעְתִּי כִּי־גָדֹ֣ול יְהוָ֑ה וַ֝אֲדֹנֵ֗ינוּ מִכָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃

6 Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, he hath done in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and all deeps;

6 כֹּ֤ל אֲשֶׁר־חָפֵ֥ץ יְהוָ֗ה עָ֫שָׂ֥ה בַּשָּׁמַ֥יִם וּבָאָ֑רֶץ בַּ֝יַּמִּ֗ים וְכָל־תְּהֹומֹֽות׃

7 Who causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; who maketh lightnings for the rain; who bringeth the wind out of his treasuries:

7 מַֽעֲלֶ֣ה נְשִׂאִים֮ מִקְצֵ֪ה הָ֫אָ֥רֶץ בְּרָקִ֣ים לַמָּטָ֣ר עָשָׂ֑ה מֹֽוצֵא־ר֝וּחַ מֵאֹֽוצְרֹותָֽיו׃

8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast;

8 הִכָּה בְּכֹורֵ֣י מִצְרָ֑יִם מֵ֝אָדָ֗ם עַד־בְּהֵמָֽה׃

9 Who sent signs and miracles into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants;

9 שָׁלַ֤ח׀ אֹתֹ֣ות וּ֭מֹפְתִים בְּתֹוכֵ֣כִי מִצְרָ֑יִם בְּ֝פַרְעֹ֗ה וּבְכָל־עֲבָדָֽיו׃

10 Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings,

10 הִכָּה גֹּויִ֣ם רַבִּ֑ים וְ֝הָרַ֗ג מְלָכִ֥ים עֲצוּמִֽים׃

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

11 לְסִיחֹ֤ון׀ מֶ֤לֶךְ הָאֱמֹרִ֗י וּ֭לְעֹוג מֶ֣לֶךְ הַבָּשָׁ֑ן וּ֝לְכֹ֗ל מַמְלְכֹ֥ות כְּנָֽעַן׃

12 And gave their land for an inheritance, an inheritance unto Israel his people.

12 וְנָתַ֣ן אַרְצָ֣ם נַחֲלָ֑ה נַ֝חֲלָ֗ה לְיִשְׂרָאֵ֥ל עַמֹּֽו׃

13 Thy name, O Jehovah, is for ever; thy memorial, O Jehovah, from generation to generation.

13 יְ֭הוָה שִׁמְךָ֣ לְעֹולָ֑ם יְ֝הוָ֗ה זִכְרְךָ֥ לְדֹר־וָדֹֽר׃

14 For Jehovah will judge his people, and will repent in favour of his servants.

14 כִּֽי־יָדִ֣ין יְהוָ֣ה עַמֹּ֑ו וְעַל־עֲ֝בָדָ֗יו יִתְנֶחָֽם׃

15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:

15 עֲצַבֵּ֣י הַ֭גֹּויִם כֶּ֣סֶף וְזָהָ֑ב מַ֝עֲשֵׂ֗ה יְדֵ֣י אָדָֽם׃

16 They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;

16 פֶּֽה־לָ֭הֶם וְלֹ֣א יְדַבֵּ֑רוּ עֵינַ֥יִם לָ֝הֶ֗ם וְלֹ֣א יִרְאֽוּ׃

17 They have ears, and they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouth.

17 אָזְנַ֣יִם לָ֭הֶם וְלֹ֣א יַאֲזִ֑ינוּ אַ֝֗ף אֵין־יֶשׁ־ר֥וּחַ בְּפִיהֶֽם׃

18 They that make them are like unto them, -- every one that confideth in them.

18 כְּ֭מֹוהֶם יִהְי֣וּ עֹשֵׂיהֶ֑ם כֹּ֭ל אֲשֶׁר־בֹּטֵ֣חַ בָּהֶֽם׃

19 House of Israel, bless ye Jehovah; house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah;

19 בֵּ֣ית יִ֭שְׂרָאֵל בָּרֲכ֣וּ אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה בֵּ֥ית אַ֝הֲרֹ֗ן בָּרֲכ֥וּ אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃

20 House of Levi, bless ye Jehovah; ye that fear Jehovah, bless Jehovah.

20 בֵּ֣ית הַ֭לֵּוִי בָּרֲכ֣וּ אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה יִֽרְאֵ֥י יְ֝הוָ֗ה בָּרֲכ֥וּ אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃

21 Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, who dwelleth at Jerusalem! Hallelujah!

21 בָּ֘ר֤וּךְ יְהוָ֨ה׀ מִצִּיֹּ֗ון שֹׁ֘כֵ֤ן יְֽרוּשָׁלִָ֗ם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃
