1Halleluyah ·praise Yah·! Praise Adonai’s name!
Praise him, you servants ²⁵⁴of Adonai,

2you who stand in Adonai’s house, in the courts of our God’s house.

3Halleluyah ·praise Yah·, for Adonai is good. Sing zahmar ·musical praise· to his name, for that is pleasant.

4For Yah has chosen Jacob [Supplanter] for himself; Israel [God prevails] for his own segulah ·special treasure·.

5For I know that Adonai is great, that our Lord is above all deities.

6Whatever Adonai pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps;

7who causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth; who makes lightnings with the rain;
who brings the wind out of his treasuries;

8Who struck the firstborn of Egypt [Abode of slavery], both of man and animal;

9Who sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt [Abode of slavery], on Pharaoh, and on all his servants;

10who struck many nations, and killed mighty kings,

11Sihon king of the Amorites [Descendants of Talkers], Og king of Bashan,
and all the kingdoms of Canaan [Humbled],

12and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel [God prevails], his people.

13Your name, Adonai, endures forever; your renown, Adonai, throughout all generations.

14For Adonai will judge his people, and have compassion on his servants.

15The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

16They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see.

17They have ears, but they can’t hear; ²⁵⁵neither is there any breath in their mouths.

18Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.

19House of Israel [God prevails], praise Adonai! House of Aaron [Light-bringer], praise Adonai!

20House of Levi [United with], praise Adonai! You who fear Adonai, ²⁵⁶praise Adonai!

21Blessed be Adonai from Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking], Who dwells at Jerusalem [City of peace]. Halleluyah ·praise Yah·!
