Psalms 135:13-21

¹³Yahweh your name will endure forever, and people who are not yet born will remember the great things that you have done.

¹⁴Yahweh, you declare that we your people ◄are innocent/have not done things that are wrong►, and you are merciful to us.

¹⁵But the idols that the other people-groups worship are only statues made of silver and gold, things that humans have made.

¹⁶Their idols have mouths, but they cannot say anything; they have eyes, but they cannot see anything.

¹⁷They have ears, but they cannot hear anything, and they are not even able to breathe.

¹⁸The people who make those idols are as powerless as those idols, and those who trust in those idols can accomplish no more than their idols can!

¹⁹My fellow Israelis, praise Yahweh! You priests who are descended from Aaron, praise Yahweh!

²⁰You men who are descended from Levi, you who assist the priests, praise Yahweh! All you who revere Yahweh, praise him!

²¹Praise Yahweh in the temple on Zion Hill in Jerusalem, where he lives! Praise Yahweh!
