Psalms 135:1-6
Psalms 135:1-6 American Standard Version (ASV)
Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah; Praise him, O ye servants of Jehovah, Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God. Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good: Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant. For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, And Israel for his own possession. For I know that Jehovah is great, And that our Lord is above all gods. Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps
Psalms 135:1-6 The Passion Translation (TPT)
Shout hallelujah and praise the greatness of God! All his righteous ones, praise him! All you worshiping priests on duty in the temple, praise him, for he is beautiful! Sing loving praises to his lovely name. For YAHWEH has chosen Jacob for his own purpose, and Israel is his special treasure. Next to every other god, the greatness of our God is unequaled. For our God is incomparable! He does what he pleases with unlimited power and authority, extending his greatness throughout the entire universe!
Psalms 135:1-12 The Message (MSG)
Hallelujah! Praise the name of GOD, praise the works of GOD. All you priests on duty in GOD’s temple, serving in the sacred halls of our God, Shout “Hallelujah!” because GOD’s so good, sing anthems to his beautiful name. And why? Because GOD chose Jacob, embraced Israel as a prize possession. I, too, give witness to the greatness of GOD, our Lord, high above all other gods. He does just as he pleases— however, wherever, whenever. He makes the weather—clouds and thunder, lightning and rain, wind pouring out of the north. He struck down the Egyptian firstborn, both human and animal firstborn. He made Egypt sit up and take notice, confronted Pharaoh and his servants with miracles. Yes, he struck down great nations, he slew mighty kings— Sihon king of the Amorites, also Og of Bashan— every last one of the Canaanite kings! Then he turned their land over to Israel, a gift of good land to his people.
Psalms 135:1-6 King James Version (KJV)
Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; Praise him, O ye servants of the LORD. Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, In the courts of the house of our God, Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant. For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, And Israel for his peculiar treasure. For I know that the LORD is great, And that our Lord is above all gods. Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, In the seas, and all deep places.
