颂赞 神的权能与拣选

135 你们要赞美耶和华,

你们要赞美耶和华的名;

耶和华的众仆人哪!你们都要赞美他。

在耶和华殿中侍候的,

在我们 神殿的院里侍候的,

你们要赞美他。

你们要赞美耶和华,

因耶和华本是良善的;

你们要歌颂他的名,

因为他的名是美好的。

因为耶和华拣选了雅各归他自己,

拣选了以色列作他自己的产业。

我确实知道耶和华是伟大的,

我们的主超越万神之上。

在天上,在地上,在海中,在一切深处,

耶和华喜欢甚么,就作甚么。

他使云雾从地极上升,

发出闪电随雨而来,

又从他的府库吹出风来。

他把埃及头生的,

无论人或牲畜都击杀了。

埃及啊!他在你当中施行神迹和奇事,

惩罚法老和他所有的臣仆。

10 他击杀了多国的民,

杀戮了强悍的王,

11 就是亚摩利王西宏、

巴珊王噩,

和迦南列国的王。

12 他把他们的地

赐给了自己的子民以色列作产业。

13 耶和华啊!你的名存到永远;

耶和华啊!你可记念的名留存万代。

14 因为耶和华要为自己的子民伸冤,

他要怜悯自己的仆人。

15 列国的偶像是金的银的,

是人手所做的。

16 有口却不能说话,

有眼却不能看,

17 有耳却不能听,

口中也没有气息。

18 做偶像的必和它们一样,

所有倚靠它们的也必这样。

19 以色列家啊!你们要称颂耶和华;

亚伦家啊!你们要称颂耶和华;

20 利未家啊!你们要称颂耶和华;

敬畏耶和华的,你们要称颂耶和华。

21 从锡安来的耶和华,

就是住在耶路撒冷的,是应当称颂的。

你们要赞美耶和华。

Psalm 135(A)

Praise the Lord.[a]

Praise the name of the Lord;
    praise him, you servants(B) of the Lord,
you who minister in the house(C) of the Lord,
    in the courts(D) of the house of our God.

Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good;(E)
    sing praise to his name,(F) for that is pleasant.(G)
For the Lord has chosen Jacob(H) to be his own,
    Israel to be his treasured possession.(I)

I know that the Lord is great,(J)
    that our Lord is greater than all gods.(K)
The Lord does whatever pleases him,(L)
    in the heavens and on the earth,(M)
    in the seas and all their depths.
He makes clouds rise from the ends of the earth;
    he sends lightning with the rain(N)
    and brings out the wind(O) from his storehouses.(P)

He struck down the firstborn(Q) of Egypt,
    the firstborn of people and animals.
He sent his signs(R) and wonders into your midst, Egypt,
    against Pharaoh and all his servants.(S)
10 He struck down many(T) nations
    and killed mighty kings—
11 Sihon(U) king of the Amorites,(V)
    Og king of Bashan,(W)
    and all the kings of Canaan(X)
12 and he gave their land as an inheritance,(Y)
    an inheritance to his people Israel.

13 Your name, Lord, endures forever,(Z)
    your renown,(AA) Lord, through all generations.
14 For the Lord will vindicate his people(AB)
    and have compassion on his servants.(AC)

15 The idols of the nations(AD) are silver and gold,
    made by human hands.(AE)
16 They have mouths, but cannot speak,(AF)
    eyes, but cannot see.
17 They have ears, but cannot hear,
    nor is there breath(AG) in their mouths.
18 Those who make them will be like them,
    and so will all who trust in them.

19 All you Israelites, praise the Lord;(AH)
    house of Aaron, praise the Lord;
20 house of Levi, praise the Lord;
    you who fear him, praise the Lord.
21 Praise be to the Lord from Zion,(AI)
    to him who dwells in Jerusalem.(AJ)

Praise the Lord.
