Psalms 135
Book of Psalms
Psalms 135:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the name of the LORD; praise
him, O ye servants of the LORD.
2 Ye that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of
our God,
3 Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises unto his name; for
it is pleasant.
4 For the LORD hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his
peculiar treasure.
5 For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
6 Whatsoever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in
the seas, and all deep places.
7 He causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he maketh
lightnings for the rain; he bringeth the wind out of his treasuries.
8 Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.
9 Who sent tokens and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, upon
Pharaoh, and upon all his servants.
10 Who smote great nations, and 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 heritage, an heritage unto Israel his
people.
13 Thy name, O LORD, endureth for ever; and thy memorial, O LORD,
throughout all generations.
14 For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself
concerning his servants.
15 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
16 They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see
not;
17 They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in
their mouths.
18 They that make them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth
in them.
19 Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:
20 Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: ye that fear the LORD, bless the
LORD.
21 Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise
ye the LORD.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
