1 <A Song of praise. Of David.> Let me give glory to you, O God, my King; and blessing to your name for ever and ever.

1 תְּהִלָּ֗ה לְדָ֫וִ֥ד אֲרֹומִמְךָ֣ אֱלֹוהַ֣י הַמֶּ֑לֶךְ וַאֲבָרֲכָ֥ה מְךָ֗ לְעֹולָ֥ם וָעֶֽד׃

2 Every day will I give you blessing, praising your name for ever and ever.

2 בְּכָל־יֹ֥ום אֲבָרֲכֶ֑ךָּ וַאֲהַלְלָ֥ה מְךָ֗ לְעֹולָ֥ם וָעֶֽד׃

3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; his power may never be searched out.

3 גָּ֘דֹ֤ול³ יְהוָ֣ה וּמְהֻלָּ֣ל מְאֹ֑ד וְ֝לִגְדֻלָּתֹ֗ו אֵ֣ין חֵֽקֶר׃

4 One generation after another will give praise to your great acts, and make clear the operation of your strength.

4 דֹּ֣ור לְ֭דֹור יְשַׁבַּ֣ח מַעֲשֶׂ֑יךָ וּגְב֖וּרֹתֶ֣יךָ יַגִּֽידוּ׃

5 My thoughts will be of the honour and glory of your rule, and of the wonder of your works.

5 הֲ֭דַר כְּבֹ֣וד הֹודֶ֑ךָ וְדִבְרֵ֖י נִפְלְאֹותֶ֣יךָ אָשִֽׂיחָה׃

6 Men will be talking of the power and fear of your acts; I will give word of your glory.

6 וֶעֱז֣וּז נֹורְאֹתֶ֣יךָ יֹאמֵ֑רוּ וּגְדוּלֹּתֶיךָ וּגְדוּלָּתְךָ֥ אֲסַפְּרֶֽנָּה׃

7 Their sayings will be full of the memory of all your mercy, and they will make songs of your righteousness.

7 זֵ֣כֶר רַב־טוּבְךָ֣ יַבִּ֑יעוּ וְצִדְקָתְךָ֥ יְרַנֵּֽנוּ׃

8 The Lord is full of grace and pity; not quickly angry, but great in mercy.

8 חַנּ֣וּן וְרַח֣וּם יְהוָ֑ה אֶ֥רֶךְ אַ֝פַּ֗יִם וּגְדָל־חָֽסֶד׃

9 The Lord is good to all men; and his mercies are over all his works.

9 טֹוב־יְהוָ֥ה לַכֹּ֑ל וְ֝רַחֲמָ֗יו עַל־כָּל־מַעֲשָֽׂיו׃

10 All the works of your hands give praise to you, O Lord; and your saints give you blessing.

10 יֹוד֣וּךָ יְ֭הוָה כָּל־מַעֲשֶׂ֑יךָ וַ֝חֲסִידֶ֗יךָ יְבָרֲכֽוּכָה׃

11 Their words will be of the glory of your kingdom, and their talk of your strength;

11 כְּבֹ֣וד מַלְכוּתְךָ֣ יֹאמֵ֑רוּ וּגְבוּרָתְךָ֥ יְדַבֵּֽרוּ׃

12 So that the sons of men may have knowledge of his acts of power, and of the great glory of his kingdom.

12 לְהֹודִ֤יעַ׀ לִבְנֵ֣י הָ֭אָדָם גְּבוּרֹתָ֑יו וּ֝כְבֹ֗וד הֲדַ֣ר מַלְכוּתֹֽו׃

13 Your kingdom is an eternal kingdom, and your rule is through all generations.

13 מַֽלְכוּתְךָ֗ מַלְכ֥וּת כָּל־עֹֽלָמִ֑ים וּ֝מֶֽמְשֶׁלְתְּךָ֗ בְּכָל־דֹּ֥ור וָדֹֽור׃

14 The Lord is the support of all who are crushed, and the lifter up of all who are bent down.

14 סֹומֵ֣ךְ יְ֭הוָה לְכָל־הַנֹּפְלִ֑ים וְ֝זֹוקֵ֗ף לְכָל־הַכְּפוּפִֽים׃

15 The eyes of all men are waiting for you; and you give them their food in its time.

15 עֵֽינֵי־כֹ֭ל אֵלֶ֣יךָ יְשַׂבֵּ֑רוּ וְאַתָּ֤ה נֹֽותֵן־לָהֶ֖ם אֶת־אָכְלָ֣ם בְּעִתֹּֽו׃

16 By the opening of your hand, every living thing has its desire in full measure.

16 פֹּותֵ֥חַ אֶת־יָדֶ֑ךָ וּמַשְׂבִּ֖יעַ לְכָל־חַ֣י רָצֹֽון׃

17 The Lord is upright in all his ways, and kind in all his works.

17 צַדִּ֣יק יְ֭הוָה בְּכָל־דְּרָכָ֑יו וְ֝חָסִ֗יד בְּכָל־מַעֲשָֽׂיו׃

18 The Lord is near all those who give honour to his name; even to all who give honour to him with true hearts.

18 קָרֹ֣וב יְ֭הוָה לְכָל־קֹרְאָ֑יו לְכֹ֤ל אֲשֶׁ֖ר יִקְרָאֻ֣הוּ בֶאֱמֶֽת׃

19 To his worshippers, he will give their desire; their cry comes to his ears, and he gives them salvation.

19 רְצֹון־יְרֵאָ֥יו יַעֲשֶׂ֑ה וְֽאֶת־שַׁוְעָתָ֥ם יִ֝שְׁמַ֗ע וְיֹושִׁיעֵֽם׃

20 The Lord will keep all his worshippers from danger; but he will send destruction on all sinners.

20 שֹׁומֵ֣ר יְ֭הוָה אֶת־כָּל־אֹהֲבָ֑יו וְאֵ֖ת כָּל־הָרְשָׁעִ֣ים יַשְׁמִֽיד׃

21 My mouth will give praise to the Lord; let all flesh be blessing his holy name for ever and ever.

21 תְּהִלַּ֥ת יְהוָ֗ה יְֽדַבֶּ֫ר־פִּ֥י וִיבָרֵ֣ךְ כָּל־בָּ֭שָׂר שֵׁ֥ם קָדְשֹׁ֗ו לְעֹולָ֥ם וָעֶֽד׃
