1 Halalu Yah! For it is good to psalm to our Elohim; for it is pleasant; and befits halal:
2 Yah Veh builds Yeru Shalem; he gathers the overthrown of Yisra El;
3 he heals the broken in heart and binds their contortions;
4 he numbers the number of the stars; he calls them all by names.
5 Great is our Adonay and great of force; his discernments innumerable:
6 Yah Veh restores the humble; he abases the wicked to the earth.
7 Answer Yah Veh with spread hands; psalm on the harp to our Elohim
8 - who covers the heavens with thick clouds; who prepares rain for the earth; who sprouts grass on the mountains;
9 who gives his bread to the animal and to the sons of ravens who call.
10 He neither delights in the might of the horse; nor takes pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 Yah Veh takes pleasure in them who awe him; who await his mercy.
12 Laud Yah Veh, O Yeru Shalem; halal your Elohim, O Siyon.
13 For he strengthens the bars of your portals; he blesses your sons within you;
14 who sets shalom in your borders and satisfies you with the fat of the wheat;
15 who sends his sayings on earth; whose word runs very quickly;
16 who gives snow as wool: he scatters the hoarfrost as ashes;
17 he casts his ice as morsels. Who stands at the face of his cold?
18 He sends his word and they melt; he blows his wind; the waters flow;
19 he tells his word to Yaaqov - his words and his judgments to Yisra El.
20 He worked not thus with any goyim; and as to judgments, they know them not. Halalu Yah!
148 1 Halalu Yah! Halal Yah Veh from the heavens; halal him in the heights;
2 halal him, all his angels; halal him, all his hosts;
3 halal him, sun and moon; halal him, all you stars of light;
4 halal him, you heavens of the heavens and you waters above the heavens:
5 Halal the name of Yah Veh; for he misvahed and they were created.
6 He stands them eternally and eternally; he gave a statute; they pass not over.
7 Halal Yah Veh from the earth you monsters and all abysses;
8 fire and hail; snow and smoke; stormy wind working his word;
9 mountains and all hills; fruitful trees and all cedars;
10 live beings and all animals; creepers and birds of wing;
11 sovereigns of the earth and all nations; governors and all judges of the earth;
12 both youths and maidens; aged and lads!
13 Halal the name of Yah Veh; for his name alone is lofted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens:
14 he exalts the horn of his people - the halal of all his mercied; of the sons of Yisra El - a people near him. Halalu Yah!
149 1 Halalu Yah! Sing Yah Veh a new song and his halal in the congregation of the mercied.
2 Yisra El cheers in his Worker; the sons of Siyon twirl in their Sovereign:
3 they halal his name in the round dance; they psalm to him with tambourine and harp;
4 for Yah Veh takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation.
5 The mercied jump for joy in honor; they shout on their beds;
6 the exaltation of El is in their throat and a sword of teeth in their hand
7 - to work vengeance on the goyim and reproofs on the nations:
8 to bind their sovereigns with bonds and their honored with fetters of iron:
9 to work on them the inscribed judgment - a majesty for all his mercied. Halalu Yah!
150 1 Halalu Yah! Halal El in his holies; halal him in the expanse of his strength;
2 halal him for his might; halal him according to his abundant greatness;
3 halal him with the blast of the shophar; halal him with the bagpipe and harp;
4 halal him with the tambourine and round dance; halal him with strummers and woodwinds;
5 halal him on the hearkening cymbals; halal him on the clanging cymbals.
6 All you who breathe, halal Yah. Halalu Yah!
