Does this psalm differ from what you were expecting? Don't be confused. There are two systems for arranging the psalms: the Septuagint and the Masoretic. We use the Septuagint system here. In the Masoretic system, which is used in most modern Bible translations, this psalm is called Psalm 135, and the previous psalm is known as Psalm 134.
1 Alleluia.
Praise ye the name of the Lord: O you his servants, praise the Lord:
2 You that stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God.
3 Praise ye the Lord, for the Lord is good: sing ye to his name, for it is sweet.
4 For the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto himself: Israel for his own possession.
5 For I have known that the Lord is great, and our God is above all gods.
6 Whatsoever the Lord pleased he hath done, in heaven, in earth, in the sea, and in all the deeps.
7 He bringeth up clouds from the end of the earth: he hath made lightnings for the rain. He bringeth forth winds out of his stores:
8 He slew the firstborn of Egypt from man even unto beast.
9 He sent forth signs and wonders in the midst of thee, O Egypt: upon Pharao, and upon all his servants.
10 He smote many nations, and slew mighty kings:
11 Sehon king of the Amorrhites, and Og king of Basan, and all the kingdoms of Chanaan.
12 And gave their land for an inheritance, for an inheritance to his people Israel.
13 Thy name, O Lord, is for ever: thy memorial, O Lord, unto all generations.
14 For the Lord will judge his people, and will be entreated in favour of his servants.
15 The idols of the Gentiles are silver and gold, the works of men's hands.
16 They have a mouth, but they speak not: they have eyes, but they see not.
17 They have ears, but they hear not: neither is there any breath in their mouths.
18 Let them that make them be like to them: and 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: you that fear the Lord, bless the Lord.
21 Blessed be the Lord out of Sion, who dwelleth in Jerusalem.

1 Alleluja.
Laudate nomen Domini;
laudate, servi, Dominum:
2 qui statis in domo Domini,
in atriis domus Dei nostri.
3 Laudate Dominum, quia bonus Dominus;
psallite nomini ejus, quoniam suave.
4 Quoniam Jacob elegit sibi Dominus;
Israël in possessionem sibi.
5 Quia ego cognovi quod magnus est Dominus,
et Deus noster præ omnibus diis.
6 Omnia quæcumque voluit Dominus fecit,
in cælo, in terra, in mari et in omnibus abyssis.
7 Educens nubes ab extremo terræ,
fulgura in pluviam fecit;
qui producit ventos de thesauris suis.
8 Qui percussit primogenita Ægypti,
ab homine usque ad pecus.
9 Et misit signa et prodigia in medio tui, Ægypte:
in Pharaonem, et in omnes servos ejus.
10 Qui percussit gentes multas,
et occidit reges fortes:
11 Sehon, regem Amorrhæorum, et Og, regem Basan,
et omnia regna Chanaan:
12 et dedit terram eorum hæreditatem,
hæreditatem Israël populo suo.
13 Domine, nomen tuum in æternum;
Domine, memoriale tuum in generationem et generationem.
14 Quia judicabit Dominus populum suum,
et in servis suis deprecabitur.
15 Simulacra gentium argentum et aurum,
opera manuum hominum.
16 Os habent, et non loquentur;
oculos habent, et non videbunt.
17 Aures habent, et non audient;
neque enim est spiritus in ore ipsorum.
18 Similes illis fiant qui faciunt ea,
et omnes qui confidunt in eis.
19 Domus Israël, benedicite Domino;
domus Aaron, benedicite Domino.
20 Domus Levi, benedicite Domino;
qui timetis Dominum, benedicite Domino.
21 Benedictus Dominus ex Sion,
qui habitat in Jerusalem.
