Hallelujah.
Praise the name of GOD;
give praise, you servants of GOD who stand in the house of GOD,
in the courts of the house of our God. Praise Yah,aYah See note at 68.5. for GOD is good;
sing hymns to this name, for it is pleasant. For Yah has chosen to keep Jacob close,
[treating] Israel as a treasured possession. For I know that GOD is great,
that our Sovereign is greater than all gods. Whatever GOD desires is done
in heaven and earth,
in the seas and all the depths. This is who makes clouds rise from the end of the earth;
who makes lightning for the rain;
who releases the wind from divine vaults. [God] struck down the first-born of Egypt,
human and animal alike— sending signs and portents againstbagainst In contrast to others “against you.” Egypt,
against Pharaoh and all his servants, striking down many nations
and slaying numerous kings— Sihon, king of the Amorites,
Og, king of Bashan,
and all the royalty of Canaan— and giving their lands as a heritage,
as a heritage to Israel—God’s people. O ETERNAL One, Your name endures forever,
Your fame, O ETERNAL One, through all generations; for GOD will champion this people,
and obtain satisfaction for their service.ctheir service Lit. “His servants.” dCf. Ps. 115.4–11. The idols of the nations are silver and gold,
the work of human hands. They have mouths, but cannot speak;
they have eyes, but cannot see; they have ears, but cannot hear,
nor is there breath in their mouths. Those who fashion them,
all who trust in them,
shall become like them. O house of Israel, bless GOD;
O house of Aaron, bless GOD; O house of Levi, bless GOD;
you who fear GOD, bless GOD. Blessed is GOD from Zion,
the One who dwells in Jerusalem.
Hallelujah.
