1 Praise ye Jehovah; For it is good to sing praises unto our God; For it is pleasant, `and' praise is comely.

1 הַ֥לְלוּ יָ֨הּ׀ כִּי־טֹ֖וב זַמְּרָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ כִּֽי־נָ֝עִים נָאוָ֥ה תְהִלָּֽה׃

2 Jehovah doth build up Jerusalem; He gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.

2 בֹּונֵ֣ה יְרוּשָׁלִַ֣ם יְהוָ֑ה נִדְחֵ֖י יִשְׂרָאֵ֣ל יְכַנֵּֽס׃

3 He healeth the broken in heart, And bindeth up their wounds.

3 הָ֭רֹפֵא לִשְׁב֣וּרֵי לֵ֑ב וּ֝מְחַבֵּ֗שׁ לְעַצְּבֹותָֽם׃

4 He counteth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by `their' names.

4 מֹונֶ֣ה מִ֭סְפָּר לַכֹּוכָבִ֑ים לְ֝כֻלָּ֗ם שֵׁמֹ֥ות יִקְרָֽא׃

5 Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding is infinite.

5 גָּדֹ֣ול אֲדֹונֵ֣ינוּ וְרַב־כֹּ֑חַ לִ֝תְבוּנָתֹ֗ו אֵ֣ין מִסְפָּֽר׃

6 Jehovah upholdeth the meek: He bringeth the wicked down to the ground.

6 מְעֹודֵ֣ד עֲנָוִ֣ים יְהוָ֑ה מַשְׁפִּ֖יל רְשָׁעִ֣ים עֲדֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃

7 Sing unto Jehovah with thanksgiving; Sing praises upon the harp unto our God,

7 עֱנ֣וּ לַיהוָ֣ה בְּתֹודָ֑ה זַמְּר֖וּ לֵאלֹהֵ֣ינוּ בְכִנֹּֽור׃

8 Who covereth the heavens with clouds, Who prepareth rain for the earth, Who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

8 הַֽמְכַסֶּ֬ה שָׁמַ֨יִם׀ בְּעָבִ֗ים הַמֵּכִ֣ין לָאָ֣רֶץ מָטָ֑ר הַמַּצְמִ֖יחַ הָרִ֣ים חָצִֽיר׃

9 He giveth to the beast his food, `And' to the young ravens which cry.

9 נֹותֵ֣ן לִבְהֵמָ֣ה לַחְמָ֑הּ לִבְנֵ֥י עֹ֝רֵ֗ב אֲשֶׁ֣ר יִקְרָֽאוּ׃

10 He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: He taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man.

10 לֹ֤א בִגְבוּרַ֣ת הַסּ֣וּס יֶחְפָּ֑ץ לֹֽא־בְשֹׁוקֵ֖י הָאִ֣ישׁ יִרְצֶֽה׃

11 Jehovah taketh pleasure in them that fear him, In those that hope in his lovingkindness.

11 רֹוצֶ֣ה יְ֭הוָה אֶת־יְרֵאָ֑יו אֶת־הַֽמְיַחֲלִ֥ים לְחַסְדֹּֽו׃

12 Praise Jehovah, O Jerusalem; Praise thy God, O Zion.

12 שַׁבְּחִ֣י יְ֭רוּשָׁלִַם אֶת־יְהוָ֑ה הַֽלְלִ֖י אֱלֹהַ֣יִךְ צִיֹּֽון׃

13 For he hath strengthened the bars of thy gates; He hath blessed thy children within thee.

13 כִּֽי־חִ֭זַּק בְּרִיחֵ֣י שְׁעָרָ֑יִךְ בֵּרַ֖ךְ בָּנַ֣יִךְ בְּקִרְבֵּֽךְ׃

14 He maketh peace in thy borders; He filleth thee with the finest of the wheat.

14 הַשָּׂם־גְּבוּלֵ֥ךְ שָׁלֹ֑ום חֵ֥לֶב חִ֝טִּ֗ים יַשְׂבִּיעֵֽךְ׃

15 He sendeth out his commandment upon earth; His word runneth very swiftly.

15 הַשֹּׁלֵ֣חַ אִמְרָתֹ֣ו אָ֑רֶץ עַד־מְ֝הֵרָ֗ה יָר֥וּץ דְּבָרֹֽו׃

16 He giveth snow like wool; He scattereth the hoar-frost like ashes.

16 הַנֹּתֵ֣ן שֶׁ֣לֶג כַּצָּ֑מֶר כְּ֝פֹ֗ור כָּאֵ֥פֶר יְפַזֵּֽר׃

17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: Who can stand before his cold?

17 מַשְׁלִ֣יךְ קַֽרְחֹ֣ו כְפִתִּ֑ים לִפְנֵ֥י קָ֝רָתֹ֗ו מִ֣י יַעֲמֹֽד׃

18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: He causeth his wind to blow, and the waters flow.

18 יִשְׁלַ֣ח דְּבָרֹ֣ו וְיַמְסֵ֑ם יַשֵּׁ֥ב ר֝וּחֹ֗ו יִזְּלוּ־מָֽיִם׃

19 He showeth his word unto Jacob, His statutes and his ordinances unto Israel.

19 מַגִּ֣יד דְּבָרֹו דְּבָרָ֣יו לְיַעֲקֹ֑ב חֻקָּ֥יו וּ֝מִשְׁפָּטָ֗יו לְיִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

20 He hath not dealt so with any nation; And as for his ordinances, they have not known them. Praise ye Jehovah.

20 לֹ֘א עָ֤שָׂה כֵ֨ן׀ לְכָל־גֹּ֗וי וּמִשְׁפָּטִ֥ים בַּל־יְדָע֗וּם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃
