Psalms

Psalm 135:6–12

⁶The LORD does all that pleases Him

in the heavens and on the earth,

in the seas and in all their depths.

⁷He causes the clouds to rise

from the ends of the earth.

He generates the lightning with the rain

and brings forth the wind from His storehouses.

⁸He struck down the firstborn of Egypt,

of both man and beast.

⁹He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt,

against Pharaoh and all his servants.

¹⁰He struck down many nations

and slaughtered mighty kings:

¹¹Sihon king of the Amorites,

Og king of Bashan,

and all the kings of Canaan.

¹²He gave their land as an inheritance,

as a heritage to His people Israel.
