1Hallelujah! Praise the name of Yahweh. Give praise, you servants of Yahweh 1Praise the LORD! Praise the name of the LORD, give praise, O servants of the LORD,
2who stand in the house of Yahweh, in the courts of the house of our God. 2who stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God!
3Praise Yahweh, for Yahweh is good; sing praise to His name, for it is delightful. 3Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good; sing to his name, for it is pleasant!
4For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel as His treasured possession. 4For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel as his own possession.
5For I know that Yahweh is great; our Lord is greater than all gods. 5For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
6Yahweh does whatever He pleases in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all the depths. 6Whatever the LORD pleases, he does, in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all deeps.
7He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain and brings the wind from His storehouses. 7He it is who makes the clouds rise at the end of the earth, who makes lightnings for the rain and brings forth the wind from his storehouses.
8He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both man and beast. 8He it was who struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and of beast;
9He sent signs and wonders against you, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his officials. 9who in your midst, O Egypt, sent signs and wonders against Pharaoh and all his servants;
10He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings: 10who struck down many nations and killed mighty kings,
11Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan. 11Sihon, king of the Amorites, and Og, king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan,
12He gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to His people Israel. 12and gave their land as a heritage, a heritage to his people Israel.
13Yahweh, Your name endures forever, Your reputation, Yahweh, through all generations. 13Your name, O LORD, endures forever, your renown, O LORD, throughout all ages.
14For Yahweh will vindicate His people and have compassion on His servants. 14For the LORD will vindicate his people and have compassion on his servants.
15The idols of the nations are of silver and gold, made by human hands. 15The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of human hands.
16They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see. 16They have mouths, but do not speak; they have eyes, but do not see;
17They have ears but cannot hear; indeed, there is no breath in their mouths. 17they have ears, but do not hear, nor is there any breath in their mouths.
18Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them. 18Those who make them become like them, so do all who trust in them.
19House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh! 19O house of Israel, bless the LORD! O house of Aaron, bless the LORD!
20House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who revere the LORD, praise the LORD! 20O house of Levi, bless the LORD! You who fear the LORD, bless the LORD!
21May the LORD be praised from Zion; He dwells in Jerusalem. Hallelujah! 21Blessed be the LORD from Zion, he who dwells in Jerusalem! Praise the LORD!
