136 Give ye thanks unto Jehovah, for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever:

Give thanks unto the God of gods, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

Give thanks unto the Lord of lords, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

To him who alone doeth great wonders, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever:

To him that by understanding made the heavens, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

To him that stretched out the earth above the waters, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

To him that made great lights, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

The sun for rule over the day, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,

The moon and stars for rule over the night, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever:

10 To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,

11 And brought out Israel from among them, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,

12 With a powerful hand and with a stretched-out arm, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

13 To him that divided the Red sea into parts, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,

14 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,

15 And overturned Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

16 To him that led his people through the wilderness, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

17 To him that smote great kings, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,

18 And slew famous kings, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

19 Sihon king of the Amorites, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,

20 And Og king of Bashan, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

21 And gave their land for an inheritance, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,

22 An inheritance unto Israel his servant, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever:

23 Who hath remembered us in our low estate, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;

24 And hath delivered us from our oppressors, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever:

25 Who giveth food to all flesh, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

26 Give ye thanks unto the God of the heavens; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.

137 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down; yea, we wept when we remembered Zion.

We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that made us wail [required] mirth, [saying,] Sing us [one] of the songs of Zion.

How should we sing a song of Jehovah's upon a foreign soil?

If I forget thee, Jerusalem, let my right hand forget [its skill];

If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to my palate: if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.

Remember, O Jehovah, against the sons of Edom, the day of Jerusalem; who said, Lay [it] bare, Lay [it] bare, down to its foundation!

Daughter of Babylon, who art to be laid waste, happy he that rendereth unto thee that which thou hast meted out to us.

Happy he that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the rock.

[A Psalm] of David.

138 I will give thee thanks with my whole heart; before the gods will I sing psalms of thee.

I will bow down toward the temple of thy holiness, and celebrate thy name for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth; for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name.

In the day when I called thou answeredst me; thou didst encourage me with strength in my soul.

All the kings of the earth shall celebrate thee, Jehovah, when they have heard the words of thy mouth;

And they shall sing in the ways of Jehovah, for great is the glory of Jehovah.

For Jehovah is high; but he looketh upon the lowly, and the proud he knoweth afar off.

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou wilt stretch forth thy hand against the anger of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

Jehovah will perfect what concerneth me: thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; forsake not the works of thine own hands.
