Strongs On/Off
Context
135:7 He causes the clouds to arise from the end of the earth, makes lightning bolts accompany the rain, and brings the wind out of his storehouses. 135:8 He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, including both men and animals. 135:9 He performed awesome deeds and acts of judgment in your midst, O Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants. 135:10 He defeated many nations, and killed mighty kings135:11 Sihon, king of the Amorites, and Og, king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan. 135:12 He gave their land as an inheritance, as an inheritance to Israel his people. 135:13 O Lord, your name endures, your reputation, O Lord, lasts. 135:14 For the Lord vindicates his people, and has compassion on his servants. 135:15 The nations’ idols are made of silver and gold, they are man-made. 135:16 They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see, 135:17 and ears, but cannot hear. Indeed, they cannot breathe. 135:18 Those who make them will end up like them, as will everyone who trusts in them. 135:19 O family of Israel, praise the Lord! O family of Aaron, praise the Lord! 135:20 O family of Levi, praise the Lord! You loyal followers of the Lord, praise the Lord! 135:21 The Lord deserves praise in Zion– he who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the Lord!
