1 Praise Yah!

Praise, you servants of Yahweh,

praise Yahweh’s name.

2 Blessed be Yahweh’s name,

from this time forward and forever more.

3 From the rising of the sun to its going down,

Yahweh’s name is to be praised.

4 Yahweh is high above all nations,

his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is like Yahweh, our God,

who has his seat on high,

6 who stoops down to see in heaven and in the earth?

7 He raises up the poor out of the dust,

and lifts up the needy from the ash heap,

8 that he may set him with princes,

even with the princes of his people.

9 He settles the barren woman in her home

as a joyful mother of children.

Praise Yah!

2 יְהִי שֵׁם יְהוָה מְבֹרָךְ מֵעַתָּה וְעַד־עֹולָם׃

3 מִמִּזְרַח־שֶׁמֶשׁ עַד־מְבֹואֹו מְהֻלָּל שֵׁם יְהוָה׃

4 רָם עַל־כָּל־גֹּויִם ׀ יְהוָה עַל הַשָּׁמַיִם כְּבֹודֹו׃

5 מִי כַּיהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ הַמַּגְבִּיהִי לָשָׁבֶת׃

6 הַמַּשְׁפִּילִי לִרְאֹות בַּשָּׁמַיִם וּבָאָרֶץ׃

7 מְקִימִי מֵעָפָר דָּל מֵאַשְׁפֹּת יָרִים אֶבְיֹון׃

8 לְהֹושִׁיבִי עִם־נְדִיבִים עִם נְדִיבֵי עַמֹּו׃

9 מֹושִׁיבִי ׀ עֲקֶרֶת הַבַּיִת אֵם־הַבָּנִים שְׂמֵחָה הַלְלוּ־יָהּ׃
