Psalms
135-137
Psa
135:1 Praise Yah! Praise the name of Yahweh! Praise him, you
servants of Yahweh,
Psa
135:2 you who stand in the house of Yahweh, in the courts of our
God's house.
Psa
135:3 Praise Yah, for Yahweh is good. Sing praises to his name, for
that is pleasant.
Psa
135:4 For Yah has chosen Jacob for himself; Israel for his own
possession.
Psa
135:5 For I know that Yahweh is great, that our Lord is above all
gods.
Psa
135:6 Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in
earth, in the seas and in all deeps;
Psa
135:7 who causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth; who
makes lightnings with the rain; who brings forth the wind out of his
treasuries;
Psa
135:8 Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal;
Psa
135:9 Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of you, Egypt, on
Pharaoh, and on all his servants;
Psa
135:10 who struck many nations, and killed mighty kings,
Psa
135:11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the
kingdoms of Canaan,
Psa
135:12 and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his
people.
Psa
135:13 Your name, Yahweh, endures forever; your renown, Yahweh,
throughout all generations.
Psa
135:14 For Yahweh will judge his people, and have compassion on his
servants.
Psa
135:15 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of
men's hands.
Psa
135:16 They have mouths, but they can't speak. They have eyes, but
they can't see.
Psa
135:17 They have ears, but they can't hear; neither is there any
breath in their mouths.
Psa
135:18 Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who
trusts in them.
Psa
135:19 House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise
Yahweh!
Psa
135:20 House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who fear Yahweh, praise
Yahweh!
Psa
135:21 Blessed be Yahweh from Zion, Who dwells at Jerusalem. Praise
Yah!

forever;

136:12 With a strong hand, and with an outstretched arm; for his
loving kindness endures forever:

loving kindness endures forever:
Psa
136:16 To him who led his people through the wilderness; for his
loving kindness endures forever:

kindness endures forever;
Psa
136:22 Even a heritage to Israel his servant; for his loving
kindness endures forever:
Psa
136:23 Who remembered us in our low estate; for his loving kindness
endures forever;
Psa
136:24 And has delivered us from our adversaries; for his loving
kindness endures forever:
Psa
136:25 Who gives food to every creature; for his loving kindness
endures forever.
Psa
136:26 Oh give thanks to the God of heaven; for his loving kindness
endures forever.
Psa
137:1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down. Yes, we wept,
when we remembered Zion.
Psa
137:2 On the willows in its midst, we hung up our harps.
Psa
137:3 For there, those who led us captive asked us for songs. Those
who tormented us demanded songs of joy: "Sing us one of the
songs of Zion!"
Psa
137:4 How can we sing Yahweh's song in a foreign land?
Psa
137:5 If I forget you, Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its
skill.
Psa
137:6 Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don't
remember you; if I don't prefer Jerusalem above my chief joy.
Psa
137:7 Remember, Yahweh, against the children of Edom, the day of
Jerusalem; who said, "Raze it! Raze it even to its foundation!"
Psa
137:8 Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, he will be happy
who rewards you, as you have served us.
Psa
137:9 Happy shall he be, who takes and dashes your little ones
against the rock.

Galatians
2
Gal 2:1
Then after a period of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem
with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me.
Gal 2:2 I
went up by revelation, and I laid before them the Good News which I
preach among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were
respected, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain.
Gal 2:3
But not even Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to
be circumcised.
Gal 2:4
This was because of the false brothers secretly brought in, who stole
in to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they
might bring us into bondage;
Gal 2:5
to whom we gave no place in the way of subjection, not for an hour,
that the truth of the Good News might continue with you.
Gal 2:6
But from those who were reputed to be important (whatever they were,
it makes no difference to me; God doesn't show partiality to
man)--they, I say, who were respected imparted nothing to me,
Gal 2:7
but to the contrary, when they saw that I had been entrusted with the
Good News for the uncircumcision, even as Peter with the Good News
for the circumcision
Gal 2:8
(for he who appointed Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision
appointed me also to the Gentiles);
Gal 2:9
and when they perceived the grace that was given to me, James and
Cephas and John, they who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and
Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the
Gentiles, and they to the circumcision.
Gal 2:10
They only asked us to remember the poor--which very thing I was also
zealous to do.
Gal 2:11
But when Peter came to Antioch, I resisted him to his face, because
he stood condemned.
Gal 2:12
For before some people came from James, he ate with the Gentiles. But
when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those who
were of the circumcision.
Gal 2:13
And the rest of the Jews joined him in his hypocrisy; so that even
Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.
Gal 2:14
But when I saw that they didn't walk uprightly according to the truth
of the Good News, I said to Peter before them all, "If you,
being a Jew, live as the Gentiles do, and not as the Jews do, why do
you compel the Gentiles to live as the Jews do?
Gal 2:15
"We, being Jews by nature, and not Gentile sinners,
Gal 2:16
yet knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but
through faith in Jesus Christ, even we believed in Christ Jesus, that
we might be justified by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the
law, because no flesh will be justified by the works of the law.
Gal 2:17
But if, while we sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also
were found sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? Certainly not!
Gal 2:18
For if I build up again those things which I destroyed, I prove
myself a law-breaker.
Gal 2:19
For I, through the law, died to the law, that I might live to God.
Gal 2:20
I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live,
but Christ living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I
live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up
for me.
Gal 2:21
I don't make void the grace of God. For if righteousness is through
the law, then Christ died for nothing!"
