Psalms 135 6 Whatever Yahweh pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, to do as he does, there is none like Yah, there is none like Yahweh, there is none who acts as king of the gods[1], in the seas and in all deeps; 7 who causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth; who makes lightnings with the rain; who brings the wind out of his treasuries; 8 Who struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal; 9 Who sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants; [..] 11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan, 12 and gave their land for a heritage to us, for his loving kindness endures forever, a heritage to Israel, his people, for his loving kindness endures forever. [..] Psalms 136 23 Who remembered us in our low estate; for his loving kindness endures forever; 24 And has delivered us from our adversaries; for his loving kindness endures forever:

meaning are in green like this: green. This
is common in Hebrew. • If
