Holman Christian Standard BibleInternational Standard Version
1Hallelujah! Praise the name of Yahweh. Give praise, you servants of Yahweh 1Hallelujah! Praise the name of the LORD! Give praise, you servants of the LORD,
2who stand in the house of Yahweh, in the courts of the house of our God. 2you who are standing in the LORD's Temple, in the courtyards of the house of our God.
3Praise Yahweh, for Yahweh is good; sing praise to His name, for it is delightful. 3Praise the LORD, because the LORD is good; Sing to his name, for he is gracious.
4For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel as His treasured possession. 4It is Jacob whom the LORD chose for himself— Israel as his personal possession.
5For I know that Yahweh is great; our Lord is greater than all gods. 5Indeed, I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord surpasses all gods.
6Yahweh does whatever He pleases in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all the depths. 6The LORD does whatever pleases him in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all its deep regions.
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 makes the clouds rise from the ends of the earth, fashioning lightning for the rain, bringing the wind from his storehouses.
8He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both man and beast. 8It was the LORD who struck down the firstborn of Egypt, including both men and animals.
9He sent signs and wonders against you, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his officials. 9He sent signs and wonders among you, Egypt, before Pharaoh and all his servants.
10He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings: 10He struck down many nations, killing many kings—
11Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan. 11Sihon, king of the Amorites, Og, king of Bashan, and every kingdom of Canaan—
12He gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to His people Israel. 12and he gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to his people Israel.
13Yahweh, Your name endures forever, Your reputation, Yahweh, through all generations. 13Your name, LORD, exists forever, and your reputation, LORD, throughout the ages.
14For Yahweh will vindicate His people and have compassion on His servants. 14For the LORD will vindicate his people, and he will show 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, worked by the hands of human beings.
16They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see. 16Mouths are attributed to them, but they cannot speak; sight is attributed to them, but they cannot see;
17They have ears but cannot hear; indeed, there is no breath in their mouths. 17ears are attributed to them, but they do not hear, and there is no breath in their mouths.
18Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them. 18Those who craft them— and all who trust in them— will become like them.
19House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh! 19House of Israel, bless the LORD! House of Aaron, bless the LORD!
20House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who revere the LORD, praise the LORD! 20House 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 lives in Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
