1Praise the LORD! Praise the name of the LORD; Praise Him, O you servants of the LORD!1Hallelujah! Praise the name of Yahweh. Give praise, you servants of Yahweh
2You who stand in the house of the LORD, In the courts of the house of our God,2who stand in the house of Yahweh, in the courts of the house of our God.
3Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good; Sing praises to His name, for it is pleasant.3Praise Yahweh, for Yahweh is good; sing praise to His name, for it is delightful.
4For the LORD has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel for His special treasure.4For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel as His treasured possession.
5For I know that the LORD is great, And our Lord is above all gods.5For I know that Yahweh is great; our Lord is greater than all gods.
6Whatever the LORD pleases He does, In heaven and in earth, In the seas and in all deep places.6Yahweh does whatever He pleases in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all the depths.
7He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; He makes lightning for the rain; He brings the wind out of His treasuries.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.
8He destroyed the firstborn of Egypt, Both of man and beast.8He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both man and beast.
9He sent signs and wonders into the midst of you, O Egypt, Upon Pharaoh and all his servants.9He sent signs and wonders against you, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his officials.
10He defeated many nations And slew mighty kings—10He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings:
11Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, And all the kingdoms of Canaan—11Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.
12And gave their land as a heritage, A heritage to Israel His people.12He gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to His people Israel.
13Your name, O LORD, endures forever, Your fame, O LORD, throughout all generations.13Yahweh, Your name endures forever, Your reputation, Yahweh, through all generations.
14For the LORD will judge His people, And He will have compassion on His servants.14For Yahweh will vindicate His people and have compassion on His servants.
15The idols of the nations are silver and gold, The work of men’s hands.15The idols of the nations are of silver and gold, made by human hands.
16They have mouths, but they do not speak; Eyes they have, but they do not see;16They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see.
17They have ears, but they do not hear; Nor is there any breath in their mouths.17They have ears but cannot hear; indeed, there is no breath in their mouths.
18Those who make them are like them; So is everyone who trusts in them.18Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them.
19Bless the LORD, O house of Israel! Bless the LORD, O house of Aaron!19House of Israel, praise Yahweh! House of Aaron, praise Yahweh!
20Bless the LORD, O house of Levi! You who fear the LORD, bless the LORD!20House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who revere the LORD, praise the LORD!
21Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, Who dwells in Jerusalem! Praise the LORD!21May the LORD be praised from Zion; He dwells in Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
