Haleluya! Praise the name of the Lord; praise him, O servants of the Lord.
You who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God,
Haleluya! for the Lord is good: sing praises to his name; for it is pleasant.
For the Lord has chosen Ya῾aqov to himself, Yisra᾽el for his peculiar possession.
For I know that the Lord is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
Whatever the Lord wishes, he has done in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.
He causes vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth; he makes lightnings for the rain; he brings the wind out of the treasuries.
It was he who smote the firstborn of Miżrayim, both of man and beast;
who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Miżrayim, upon Par῾o, and upon all his servants;
who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;
Siĥon king of the Emori, and ῾Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Kena῾an;
and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Yisra᾽el his people.
Thy name, O Lord, endures forever; and Thy renown, O Lord, throughout all generations.
For the Lord will judge the cause of his people, and he will relent concerning his servants.
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
They have mouths, but they cannot speak; eyes have they, but they cannot see;
they have ears, but they cannot hear; nor is there any breath in their mouths.
May they who make them become like them; and everyone who trusts in them.
Bless the Lord, O house of Yisra᾽el: bless the Lord, O house of Aharon:
Bless the Lord, O house of Levi: you who fear the Lord, bless the Lord.
Blessed be the Lord out of Żiyyon, he who dwells at Yerushalayim. Haleluya!
