Psalm 135:13-21 Amplified Bible (AMP)

13. Your name, O Lord, endures forever, Your fame, O Lord, throughout all ages.

14. For the Lord will judge and vindicate His people, and He will delay His judgments [manifesting His righteousness and mercy] and take into favor His servants [those who meet His terms of separation unto Him]. [Heb. 10:30.]

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

16. [Idols] have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;

17. They have ears, but they hear not, nor is there any breath in their mouths.

18. Those who make [idols] are like them; so is everyone who trusts in and relies on them. [Ps. 115:4-8.]

19. Bless (affectionately and gratefully praise) the Lord, O house of Israel; bless the Lord, O house of Aaron [God's ministers].

20. Bless the Lord, O house of Levi [the dedicated tribe]; you who reverently and worshipfully fear the Lord, bless the Lord [affectionately and gratefully praise Him]! [Deut. 6:5; Ps. 31:23.]

21. Blessed out of Zion be the Lord, Who dwells [with us] at Jerusalem! Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)
