1Praise <01984> the Lord <03050>! Praise <01984> the name <08034> of the Lord <03068>! Offer praise <01984>, you servants <05650> of the Lord <03068>,
2who serve <05975> in the Lord’s <03068> temple <01004>, in the courts <02691> of the temple <01004> of our God <0430>.
3Praise <01984> the Lord <03050>, for <03588> the Lord <03068> is good <02896>! Sing praises <02167> to his name <08034>, for <03588> it is pleasant <05273>!
4Indeed <03588>, the Lord <03050> has chosen <0977> Jacob <03290> for himself, Israel <03478> to be his special possession <05459>.
5Yes <03588>, I <0589> know <03045> the Lord <03068> is great <01419>, and our Lord <0136> is superior to all <03605> gods <0430>.
6He does <06213> whatever <0834> <03605> he <03068> pleases <02654> in heaven <08064> and on earth <0776>, in the seas <03220> and all <03605> the ocean depths <08415>.
7He causes the clouds <05387> to arise <05927> from the end <07097> of the earth <0776>, makes <06213> lightning bolts <01300> accompany the rain <04306>, and brings <03318> the wind <07307> out <03318> of his storehouses <0214>.
8He struck down <05221> the firstborn <01060> of Egypt <04714>, including both <05704> men <0120> and animals <0929>.
9He performed <07971> awesome <0226> deeds and acts of judgment <04159> in your midst <08432>, O Egypt <04714>, against Pharaoh <06547> and all <03605> his servants <05650>.
10He defeated <05221> many <07227> nations <01471>, and killed <02026> mighty <06099> kings <04428>–
11Sihon <05511>, king <04428> of the Amorites <0567>, and Og <05747>, king <04428> of Bashan <01316>, and all <03605> the kingdoms <04467> of Canaan <03667>.
12He gave <05414> their land <0776> as an inheritance <05159>, as an inheritance <05159> to Israel <03478> his people <05971>.
13O Lord <03068>, your name <08034> endures <05769>, your reputation <02143>, O Lord <03068>, lasts <01755> <01755>.
14For <03588> the Lord <03068> vindicates <01777> his people <05971>, and has compassion <05162> on <05921> his servants <05650>.
15The nations <01471>’ idols <06091> are made of silver <03701> and gold <02091>, they are man-made <0120> <03027> <04639>.
16They <01992> have mouths <06310>, but cannot <03808> speak <01696>, eyes <05869>, but cannot <03808> see <07200>,
17and ears <0241>, but cannot <03808> hear <0238>. Indeed <0637>, they <01992> cannot <0369> breathe <07307>.
18Those who make <06213> them will end up <01961> like <03644> them, as will everyone <03605> who <0834> trusts <0982> in them.
19O family <01004> of Israel <03478>, praise <01288> the Lord <03068>! O family <01004> of Aaron <0175>, praise <01288> the Lord <03068>!
20O family <01004> of Levi <03878>, praise <01288> the Lord <03068>! You loyal followers <03373> of the Lord <03068>, praise <01288> the Lord <03068>!
21The Lord <03068> deserves praise <01288> in Zion <06726>– he who dwells <07931> in Jerusalem <03389>. Praise <01984> the Lord <03050>!
