| Praise the LORD!
For it is good to sing praises to our God;
for he is gracious, and a song of praise is seemly.

הַלְלוּ יָהּ
כִּי־טֹוב זַמְּרָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ כִּי־נָעִים נָאוָה תְהִלָּה׃ | Praise to the Lord the Almighty. Psalm 147a(v146) |
| The LORD builds up Jerusalem;
he gathers the outcasts of Israel.

| He heals the brokenhearted,
and binds up their wounds.

מֹונֶה מִסְפָּר לַכֹּוכָבִים לְכֻלָּם שֵׁמֹות יִקְרָא׃ | |
| Great is our LORD, and abundant in power;
his understanding is beyond measure.
|
גָּדֹול אֲדֹונֵינוּ וְרַב־כֹּחַ לִתְבוּנָתֹו אֵין מִסְפָּר׃ | |

he casts the wicked to the ground.

|
עֱנוּ לַיהוָה בְּתֹודָה זַמְּרוּ לֵאלֹהֵינוּ בְכִנֹּור׃ | |
| He covers the heavens with clouds,
he prepares rain for the earth,
he makes grass grow upon the hills.

הַמְכַסֶּה שָׁמַיִם בְּעָבִים הַמֵּכִין לָאָרֶץ מָטָר
הַמַּצְמִיחַ הָרִים חָצִיר׃ | |
| He gives to the beasts their food,
and to the young ravens which cry.
|
נֹותֵן לִבְהֵמָה לַחְמָהּ לִבְנֵי עֹרֵב אֲשֶׁר יִקְרָאוּ׃ | |
| His delight is not in the strength of the horse,
nor his pleasure in the legs of a man;
|
לֹא בִגְבוּרַת הַסּוּס יֶחְפָּץ לֹא־בְשֹׁוקֵי הָאִישׁ יִרְצֶה׃ | |
| but the LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him,
in those who hope in his steadfast love. |

| Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem!
Praise your God, O Zion!

כִּי־חִזַּק בְּרִיחֵי שְׁעָרָיִךְ בֵּרַךְ בָּנַיִךְ בְּקִרְבֵּךְ׃ | |
| He makes peace in your borders;
he fills you with the finest of the wheat.
|
הַשָּׂם־גְּבוּלֵךְ שָׁלֹום חֵלֶב חִטִּים יַשְׂבִּיעֵךְ׃ | |
| He sends forth his command to the earth;
his word runs swiftly.
|
הַשֹּׁלֵחַ אִמְרָתֹו אָרֶץ עַד־מְהֵרָה יָרוּץ דְּבָרֹו׃ | |

he scatters hoarfrost like ashes.

who can stand before his cold?
|
מַשְׁלִיךְ קַרְחֹו כְפִתִּים לִפְנֵי קָרָתֹו מִי יַעֲמֹד׃ | |
| He sends forth his word, and melts them;
he makes his wind blow, and the waters flow.
|
יִשְׁלַח דְּבָרֹו וְיַמְסֵם יַשֵּׁב רוּחֹו יִזְּלוּ־מָיִם׃ | |
| He declares his word to Jacob,
his statutes and ordinances to Israel.
|
מַגִּיד [כ= דְּבָרֹו] [ק= דְּבָרָיו] לְיַעֲקֹב חֻקָּיו וּמִשְׁפָּטָיו לְיִשְׂרָאֵל׃ | |
| He has not dealt thus with any other nation;
they do not know his ordinances.
Praise the LORD! |
לֹא עָשָׂה כֵן לְכָל־גֹּוי וּמִשְׁפָּטִים בַּל־יְדָעוּם
הַלְלוּ־יָהּ׃ | |
