Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD’s name! Praise him, you servants of the LORD,

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

Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant.

For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession.

For I know that the LORD is great, that our Lord is above all gods.

Whatever the LORD pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps.

He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings with the rain. He brings the wind out of his treasuries.

He struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal.

He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.

He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings—

Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan—

and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people.

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

For the LORD will judge his people and have compassion on his servants.

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

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

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

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

House of Israel, praise the LORD! House of Aaron, praise the LORD!

House of Levi, praise the LORD! You who fear the LORD, praise the LORD!

Blessed be the LORD from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!

هَلِّلُويَا. سَبِّحُوا اسْمَ الرَّبِّ. سَبِّحُوا يَا عَبِيدَ الرَّبِّ،

الْوَاقِفِينَ فِي بَيْتِ الرَّبِّ، فِي دِيَارِ بَيْتِ إِلهِنَا.

سَبِّحوا الرَّبَّ فإِنَّه صالِح إِعزِفوا لِٱسمِه فإِنَّه لَذيذ

لِأَنَّ الرَّبَّ قدِ ٱخْتارَ لَه يَعْقوب وإِسْرائيلَ خاصَّةً لَه

لقد عَلِمتُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ عَظيم وأَنَّ سَيِّدَنا فَوقَ جَميعِ الآلِهَة

كُلَّ ما شاءَ الرَّبُّ صَنَع في السَّمٰواتِ والأَرْض في البِحارِ وجَميعِ الغِمار

مِن أَقْصى الأَرْضِ يُصعِدُ الغُيوم ولِلمَطَرِ يُحدِثُ البُروق ومِن خَزائِنِه يُخرِجُ الرِّيح

هو الَّذي ضَرَبَ أَبْكارَ مِصْر مِنَ النَّاسِ إِلى البَهائِم

وأَرسَلَ آياتٍ ومُعجِزات في وَسَطِكِ يا مِصْر على فِرعَونَ وعلى جَميعِ عَبيدِه

هو الَّذي ضَرَبَ أُمَمًا كَثيرة وقَتَلَ مُلوكًا عُظَماء

سيحونَ مَلِكَ الأَمورِيِّين وعوجًا مَلِكَ باشان وسائِرَ مَمالِكِ كَنْعان

وَأَعْطَى أَرْضَهُمْ مِيرَاثًا، مِيرَاثًا لإِسْرَائِيلَ شَعْبِهِ.

يا رَبُّ، لِلأَبَدِ ٱسمُكَ يا رَبُّ إِلى جيلٍ فجيلٍ ذِكرُكَ

إِنَّ الرَّبَّ يُنصِفُ شَعبَه ويَرأَفُ بِعَبيدِه

أَوثانُ الأُمَمِ فِضَّةٌ وذَهَب صُنعُ أَيدي البَشَر

لَها أَفواهٌ ولا تَتَكَلَّم لَها عُيونٌ ولا تُبصِر

لَها آذانٌ ولا تُصْغي ولَيسَ في أَفْواهِها نَسَمَة

مِثْلَها يَكونُ صانِعوها وجَميعُ المُتَّكِلينَ علَيها

بارِكوا الرَّبَّ يا بَيتَ إِسْرائيل بارِكوا الرَّبَّ يا بَيتَ هارون

بارِكوا الرَّبَّ يا بَيتَ لاوي بارِكوا الرَّبَّ يا مَن يَتَّقونَ الرَّبّ

تَبارَكَ الرَّبُّ مِن صِهْيون السَّاكِنُ في أُورَشَليم. هَلِّلويا!
