1Hallelujah! Praise the name of the LORD! Give praise, you servants of the LORD,1Praise the LORD! Praise the name of the LORD! Praise him, you who serve the LORD,
2you who are standing in the LORD's Temple, in the courtyards of the house of our God.2you who serve in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.
3Praise the LORD, because the LORD is good; Sing to his name, for he is gracious.3Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good; celebrate his lovely name with music.
4It is Jacob whom the LORD chose for himself— Israel as his personal possession.4For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own special treasure.
5Indeed, I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord surpasses all gods.5I know the greatness of the LORD— that our Lord is greater than any other god.
6The LORD does whatever pleases him in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all its deep regions.6The LORD does whatever pleases him throughout all heaven and earth, and on the seas and in their depths.
7He makes the clouds rise from the ends of the earth, fashioning lightning for the rain, bringing the wind from his storehouses.7He causes the clouds to rise over the whole earth. He sends the lightning with the rain and releases the wind from his storehouses.
8It was the LORD who struck down the firstborn of Egypt, including both men and animals.8He destroyed the firstborn in each Egyptian home, both people and animals.
9He sent signs and wonders among you, Egypt, before Pharaoh and all his servants.9He performed miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt against Pharaoh and all his people.
10He struck down many nations, killing many kings—10He struck down great nations and slaughtered mighty kings—
11Sihon, king of the Amorites, Og, king of Bashan, and every kingdom of Canaan—11Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.
12and he gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to his people Israel.12He gave their land as an inheritance, a special possession to his people Israel.
13Your name, LORD, exists forever, and your reputation, LORD, throughout the ages.13Your name, O LORD, endures forever; your fame, O LORD, is known to every generation.
14For the LORD will vindicate his people, and he will show compassion on his servants.14For the LORD will give justice to his people and have compassion on his servants.
15The idols of the nations are silver and gold, worked by the hands of human beings.15The idols of the nations are merely things of silver and gold, shaped by human hands.
16Mouths are attributed to them, but they cannot speak; sight is attributed to them, but they cannot see;16They have mouths but cannot speak, and eyes but cannot see.
17ears are attributed to them, but they do not hear, and there is no breath in their mouths.17They have ears but cannot hear, and mouths but cannot breathe.
18Those who craft them— and all who trust in them— will become like them.18And those who make idols are just like them, as are all who trust in them.
19House of Israel, bless the LORD! House of Aaron, bless the LORD!19O Israel, praise the LORD! O priests—descendants of Aaron—praise the LORD!
20House of Levi, bless the LORD! You who fear the LORD, bless the LORD!20O Levites, praise the LORD! All you who fear the LORD, praise the LORD!
21Blessed be the LORD from Zion, he who lives in Jerusalem. Hallelujah!21The LORD be praised from Zion, for he lives here in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
