¹ Hallelujah! Praise the name of Yahweh. Give praise, you servants of Yahweh ⓐ

² who stand in the house of Yahweh, in the courts of the house of our God. ⓑ

³ Praise Yahweh, for Yahweh is good; sing praise to His name, for it is delightful. ⓒ

⁴ For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for Himself, Israel as His treasured possession. ⓓ

⁵ For I know that Yahweh is great; our Lord is greater than all gods. ⓔ

⁶ Yahweh does whatever He pleases in heaven and on earth, in the seas and all the depths. ⓕ

⁷ He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightning for the rain and brings the wind from His storehouses. ⓖ

⁸ He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, both man and beast. ⓗ

⁹ He sent signs and wonders against you, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his officials. ⓘ

¹⁰ He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings: ⓙ

¹¹ Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan. ⓚ

¹² He gave their land as an inheritance, an inheritance to His people Israel. ⓛ

¹³ Yahweh, Your name endures forever, Your reputation, Yahweh, through all generations. ⓜ

¹⁴ For Yahweh will vindicate His people and have compassion on His servants. ⓝ

¹⁵ The idols of the nations are of silver and gold, made by human hands. ⓞ

¹⁶ They have mouths but cannot speak, ⓟ eyes, but cannot see.

¹⁷ They have ears but cannot hear; indeed, there is no breath in their mouths. ⓠ

¹⁸ Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them. ⓡ

¹⁹ House of Israel, praise Yahweh! ⓢ House of Aaron, praise Yahweh! ⓣ

²⁰ House of Levi, praise Yahweh! You who revere the LORD, praise the LORD! ⓤ

²¹ May the LORD be praised from Zion; ⓥ He dwells in Jerusalem. ⓦ Hallelujah!
