1 Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah, O my soul.

1 הַֽלְלוּ־יָ֡הּ הַלְלִ֥י נַ֝פְשִׁ֗י אֶת־יְהוָֽה׃

2 As long as I live will I praise Jehovah; I will sing psalms unto my God while I have my being.

2 אֲהַלְלָ֣ה יְהוָ֣ה בְּחַיָּ֑י אֲזַמְּרָ֖ה לֵֽאלֹהַ֣י בְּעֹודִֽי׃

3 Put not confidence in nobles, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation.

3 אַל־תִּבְטְח֥וּ בִנְדִיבִ֑ים בְּבֶן־אָדָ֓ם׀ שֶׁ֤אֵֽין לֹ֥ו תְשׁוּעָֽה׃

4 His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his purposes perish.

4 תֵּצֵ֣א ר֭וּחֹו יָשֻׁ֣ב לְאַדְמָתֹ֑ו בַּיֹּ֥ום הַ֝ה֗וּא אָבְד֥וּ עֶשְׁתֹּנֹתָֽיו׃

5 Blessed is he who hath the ùGod of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in Jehovah his God,

5 אַשְׁרֵ֗י שֶׁ֤אֵ֣ל יַעֲקֹ֣ב בְּעֶזְרֹ֑ו בְרֹ֗ו עַל־יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהָֽיו׃

6 Who made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is therein; who keepeth truth for ever;

6 עֹשֶׂ֤ה׀ שָׁ֘מַ֤יִם וָאָ֗רֶץ אֶת־הַיָּ֥ם וְאֶת־כָּל־אֲשֶׁר־בָּ֑ם הַשֹּׁמֵ֖ר אֱמֶ֣ת לְעֹולָֽם׃

7 Who executeth judgment for the oppressed, who giveth bread to the hungry. Jehovah looseth the prisoners;

7 עֹשֶׂ֤ה מִשְׁפָּ֨ט׀ לָעֲשׁוּקִ֗ים נֹתֵ֣ן לֶ֭חֶם לָרְעֵבִ֑ים יְ֝הוָ֗ה מַתִּ֥יר אֲסוּרִֽים׃

8 Jehovah openeth [the eyes of] the blind; Jehovah raiseth up them that are bowed down; Jehovah loveth the righteous;

8 יְהוָ֤ה׀ פֹּ֘קֵ֤חַ עִוְרִ֗ים יְ֭הוָה זֹקֵ֣ף כְּפוּפִ֑ים יְ֝הוָ֗ה אֹהֵ֥ב צַדִּיקִֽים׃

9 Jehovah preserveth the strangers; he lifteth up the fatherless and the widow; but the way of the wicked doth he subvert.

9 יְהוָ֤ה׀ שֹׁ֘מֵ֤ר אֶת־גֵּרִ֗ים יָתֹ֣ום וְאַלְמָנָ֣ה יְעֹודֵ֑ד וְדֶ֖רֶךְ רְשָׁעִ֣ים יְעַוֵּֽת׃

10 Jehovah will reign for ever, [even] thy God, O Zion, from generation to generation. Halleluiah!

10 יִמְלֹ֤ךְ יְהוָ֨ה׀ לְעֹולָ֗ם אֱלֹהַ֣יִךְ צִ֭יֹּון לְדֹ֥ר וָדֹ֗ר הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃
