Psalm 135-136

English Standard Version

⁵ For I know that ^(I)the Lord is great,
    and that our Lord is above all gods.
^6 (J)Whatever the Lord pleases, he does,
    in heaven and on earth,
    in the seas and all deeps.
^7 (K)He it is who makes the clouds rise at the end of the earth,
    who ^(L)makes lightnings for the rain
    and brings forth the wind from his ^(M)storehouses.

⁸ He it was who ^(N)struck down the firstborn of Egypt,
    both of man and of beast;
⁹ who in your midst, O Egypt,
    sent ^(O)signs and wonders
    against Pharaoh and all his servants;
^10 (P)who struck down many nations
    and killed mighty kings,
^11 (Q)Sihon, king of the Amorites,
    and ^(R)Og, king of Bashan,
    and ^(S)all the kingdoms of Canaan,
¹² and ^(T)gave their land as a heritage,
    a heritage to his people Israel.

^13 (U)Your name, O Lord, endures forever,
    ^(V)your renown,^[b] O Lord, throughout all ages.
^14 (W)For the Lord will vindicate his people
    and ^(X)have compassion on his servants.

^15 (Y)The idols of the nations are silver and gold,
    the work of human hands.
¹⁶ They have mouths, but do not speak;
    they have eyes, but do not see;
¹⁷ they have ears, but do not hear,
    nor is there any breath in their mouths.
¹⁸ Those who make them become like them,
    so do all who trust in them.

^19 (Z)O house of Israel, bless the Lord!
    O house of Aaron, bless the Lord!
²⁰ O house of Levi, bless the Lord!
    You who fear the Lord, bless the Lord!
²¹ Blessed be the Lord ^(AA)from Zion,
    he who ^(AB)dwells in Jerusalem!
^(AC)Praise the Lord!

⁴ to him who alone ^(AH)does great wonders,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
⁵ to him who ^(AI)by understanding ^(AJ)made the heavens,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
⁶ to him who ^(AK)spread out the earth ^(AL)above the waters,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
⁷ to him who ^(AM)made the great lights,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
⁸ the sun to rule over the day,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
⁹ the moon and stars to rule over the night,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;

¹⁰ to him who ^(AN)struck down the firstborn of Egypt,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
¹¹ and ^(AO)brought Israel out from among them,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
¹² with ^(AP)a strong hand and an outstretched arm,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
¹³ to him who ^(AQ)divided the Red Sea in two,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
^14 (AR)and made Israel pass through the midst of it,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
¹⁵ but ^(AS)overthrew^[c] Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
¹⁶ to him who ^(AT)led his people through the wilderness,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;

¹⁷ to him ^(AU)who struck down great kings,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
¹⁸ and killed mighty kings,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
¹⁹ Sihon, king of the Amorites,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
²⁰ and Og, king of Bashan,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
²¹ and gave their land as a heritage,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
²² a heritage to Israel his ^(AV)servant,
    for his steadfast love endures forever.

²³ It is he who ^(AW)remembered us in our low estate,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
²⁴ and ^(AX)rescued us from our foes,
    for his steadfast love endures forever;
²⁵ he who ^(AY)gives food to all flesh,
