הַ֥לְלוּ יָ֨הּ ׀ הַֽ֭לְלוּ אֶת־שֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֑ה הֽ͏ַ֝לְלוּ עַבְדֵ֥י יְהוָֽה׃ | 1 |
Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye the name of Jehovah; Praise [him], O ye servants of Jehovah,
שֶׁ֣֭עֹֽמְדִים בְּבֵ֣ית יְהוָ֑ה בְּ֝חַצְרֹ֗ות בֵּ֣ית אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃ | 2 |
Ye that stand in the house of Jehovah, In the courts of the house of our God.
הַֽ֭לְלוּ־יָהּ כִּי־טֹ֣וב יְהוָ֑ה זַמְּר֥וּ לִ֝שְׁמֹ֗ו כִּ֣י נָעִֽים׃ | 3 |
Praise ye Jehovah; for Jehovah is good: Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.
כִּֽי־יַעֲקֹ֗ב בָּחַ֣ר לֹ֣ו יָ֑הּ יִ֝שְׂרָאֵ֗ל לִסְגֻלָּתֹֽו׃ | 4 |
For Jehovah hath chosen Jacob unto himself, [And] Israel for his own possession.
כִּ֤י אֲנִ֣י יָ֭דַעְתִּי כִּי־גָדֹ֣ול יְהוָ֑ה וַ֝אֲדֹנֵ֗ינוּ מִכָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ | 5 |
For I know that Jehovah is great, And that our Lord is above all gods.
כֹּ֤ל אֲשֶׁר־חָפֵ֥ץ יְהוָ֗ה עָ֫שָׂ֥ה בַּשָּׁמַ֥יִם וּבָאָ֑רֶץ בַּ֝יַּמִּ֗ים וְכָל־תְּהֹומֹֽות׃ | 6 |
Whatsoever Jehovah pleased, that hath he done, In heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;
מַֽעֲלֶ֣ה נְשִׂאִים֮ מִקְצֵ֪ה הָ֫אָ֥רֶץ בְּרָקִ֣ים לַמָּטָ֣ר עָשָׂ֑ה מֹֽוצֵא־ר֝וּחַ מֵאֹֽוצְרֹותָֽיו׃ | 7 |
Who causeth the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; Who maketh lightnings for the rain; Who bringeth forth the wind out of his treasuries;
שֶֽׁ֭הִכָּה בְּכֹורֵ֣י מִצְרָ֑יִם מֵ֝אָדָ֗ם עַד־בְּהֵמָֽה׃ | 8 |
Who smote the first-born of Egypt, Both of man and beast;
שָׁלַ֤ח ׀ אֹתֹ֣ות וּ֭מֹפְתִים בְּתֹוכֵ֣כִי מִצְרָ֑יִם בְּ֝פַרְעֹ֗ה וּבְכָל־עֲבָדָֽיו׃ | 9 |
Who sent signs and wonders into the midst of thee, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh, and upon all his servants;
שֶֽׁ֭הִכָּה גֹּויִ֣ם רַבִּ֑ים וְ֝הָרַ֗ג מְלָכִ֥ים עֲצוּמִֽים׃ | 10 |
Who smote many nations, And slew mighty kings,
לְסִיחֹ֤ון ׀ מֶ֤לֶךְ הָאֱמֹרִ֗י וּ֭לְעֹוג מֶ֣לֶךְ הַבָּשָׁ֑ן וּ֝לְכֹ֗ל מַמְלְכֹ֥ות כְּנָֽעַן׃ | 11 |
Sihon king of the Amorites, And Og king of Bashan, And all the kingdoms of Canaan,
וְנָתַ֣ן אַרְצָ֣ם נַחֲלָ֑ה נַ֝חֲלָ֗ה לְיִשְׂרָאֵ֥ל עַמֹּֽו׃ | 12 |
And gave their land for a heritage, A heritage unto Israel his people.
יְ֭הוָה שִׁמְךָ֣ לְעֹולָ֑ם יְ֝הוָ֗ה זִכְרְךָ֥ לְדֹר־וָדֹֽר׃ | 13 |
Thy name, O Jehovah, [endureth] for ever; Thy memorial [name], O Jehovah, throughout all generations.
כִּֽי־יָדִ֣ין יְהוָ֣ה עַמֹּ֑ו וְעַל־עֲ֝בָדָ֗יו יִתְנֶחָֽם׃ | 14 |
For Jehovah will judge his people, And repent himself concerning his servants.
עֲצַבֵּ֣י הַ֭גֹּויִם כֶּ֣סֶף וְזָהָ֑ב מַ֝עֲשֵׂ֗ה יְדֵ֣י אָדָֽם׃ | 15 |
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men’s hands.
פֶּֽה־לָ֭הֶם וְלֹ֣א יְדַבֵּ֑רוּ עֵינַ֥יִם לָ֝הֶ֗ם וְלֹ֣א יִרְאֽוּ׃ | 16 |
They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not;
אָזְנַ֣יִם לָ֭הֶם וְלֹ֣א יַאֲזִ֑ינוּ אַ֝֗ף אֵין־יֶשׁ־ר֥וּחַ בְּפִיהֶֽם׃ | 17 |
They have ears, but they hear not; Neither is there any breath in their mouths.
כְּ֭מֹוהֶם יִהְי֣וּ עֹשֵׂיהֶ֑ם כֹּ֭ל אֲשֶׁר־בֹּטֵ֣חַ בָּהֶֽם׃ | 18 |
They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.
בֵּ֣ית יִ֭שְׂרָאֵל בָּרֲכ֣וּ אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה בֵּ֥ית אַ֝הֲרֹ֗ן בָּרֲכ֥וּ אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃ | 19 |
O house of Israel, bless ye Jehovah: O house of Aaron, bless ye Jehovah:
בֵּ֣ית הַ֭לֵּוִי בָּרֲכ֣וּ אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה יִֽרְאֵ֥י יְ֝הוָ֗ה בָּרֲכ֥וּ אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃ | 20 |
O house of Levi, bless ye Jehovah: Ye that fear Jehovah, bless ye Jehovah.
בָּ֘ר֤וּךְ יְהוָ֨ה ׀ מִצִּיֹּ֗ון שֹׁ֘כֵ֤ן יְֽרוּשָׁלָ֗͏ִם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ | 21 |
Blessed be Jehovah out of Zion, Who dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.
