Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good

Psalm 135:1-21
Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing praise to his name, for that is pleasant. For the Lord has chosen Jacob to be his own, Israel to be his treasured possession.
I know that the Lord is great, that our Lord is greater than all gods.
Your name , O Lord, endures forever, your renown, O Lord , through all generations. For the Lord will vindicate his people and have compassion on his servants.
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, made by the hands of men. They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but they cannot see... Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them.
This psalm echoes many earlier one. God is to be praised for choosing Israel, for his greatness and his mighty works. Let priests and people sing his praise.
Why?
God is great, God is good, God will vindicate his people and have compassion on his servants. So let's praise his name and sing his praise with joy.
Don't make any idles in our heart, to a God's servant must keep away from idols. Come close idols will perish like idols.
How?
Praise the Lord! Give honor to the Lord and keep away from any kind of idols.
