Psalms 135:8-17 Modern English Version (MEV)

8. He struck down the firstborn of Egypt,both of man and animal.

9. He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt,against Pharaoh and all his servants;

10. He struck down great nationsand slew mighty kings—

11. Sihon, king of the Amorites,and Og king of Bashan,and all the kingdoms of Canaan—

12. and gave their land for an inheritance,a possession to Israel His people.

13. Your name, O Lord, endures forever;and Your renown, O Lord, throughout all generations.

14. For the Lord will defend His people,and He will have compassion on His servants.

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

16. They have mouths, but do not speak;they have eyes, but do not see;

17. they have ears, but do not hear;neither is there any breath in their mouths.
