| א הוֹדוּ לַיהוָה, קִרְאוּ
בִשְׁמוֹ; הוֹדִיעוּ בָעַמִּים, עֲלִילוֹתָיו. |
1 O give thanks unto the LORD, call upon His name; make known His
doings among the peoples. |
| ב שִׁירוּ-לוֹ, זַמְּרוּ-לוֹ; שִׂיחוּ,
בְּכָל-נִפְלְאוֹתָיו. |
2 Sing unto Him, sing praises unto Him; speak ye of all His
marvellous works. |
| ג הִתְהַלְלוּ, בְּשֵׁם קָדְשׁוֹ; יִשְׂמַח,
לֵב מְבַקְשֵׁי יְהוָה. |
3 Glory ye in His holy name; let the heart of them rejoice that seek
the LORD. |
| ד דִּרְשׁוּ יְהוָה וְעֻזּוֹ; בַּקְּשׁוּ
פָנָיו תָּמִיד. |
4 Seek ye the LORD and His strength; seek His face
continually. |
| ה זִכְרוּ--נִפְלְאוֹתָיו אֲשֶׁר-עָשָׂה;
מֹפְתָיו, וּמִשְׁפְּטֵי-פִיו. |
5 Remember His marvellous works that He hath done, His wonders, and
the judgments of His mouth; |
| ו זֶרַע, אַבְרָהָם עַבְדּוֹ: בְּנֵי יַעֲקֹב
בְּחִירָיו. |
6 O ye seed of Abraham His servant, ye children of Jacob, His chosen
ones. |
| ז הוּא, יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ; בְּכָל-הָאָרֶץ,
מִשְׁפָּטָיו. |
7 He is the LORD our God; His judgments are in all the
earth. |
| ח זָכַר לְעוֹלָם בְּרִיתוֹ; דָּבָר צִוָּה,
לְאֶלֶף דּוֹר. |
8 He hath remembered His covenant for ever, the word which He
commanded to a thousand generations; |
| ט אֲשֶׁר כָּרַת, אֶת-אַבְרָהָם;
וּשְׁבוּעָתוֹ לְיִשְׂחָק. |
9 [The covenant] which He made with Abraham, and His oath unto
Isaac; |
| י וַיַּעֲמִידֶהָ לְיַעֲקֹב לְחֹק;
לְיִשְׂרָאֵל, בְּרִית עוֹלָם. |
10 And He established it unto Jacob for a statute, to Israel for an
everlasting covenant; |
| יא לֵאמֹר--לְךָ, אֶתֵּן אֶת-אֶרֶץ-כְּנָעַן:
חֶבֶל, נַחֲלַתְכֶם. |
11 Saying: 'Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your
inheritance.' |
| יב בִּהְיוֹתָם, מְתֵי מִסְפָּר; כִּמְעַט,
וְגָרִים בָּהּ. |
12 When they were but a few men in number. Yea, very few, and
sojourners in it, |
| יג וַיִּתְהַלְּכוּ, מִגּוֹי אֶל-גּוֹי;
מִמַּמְלָכָה, אֶל-עַם אַחֵר. |
13 And when they went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom
to another people, |
| יד לֹא-הִנִּיחַ אָדָם לְעָשְׁקָם;
וַיּוֹכַח עֲלֵיהֶם מְלָכִים. |
14 He suffered no man to do them wrong, yea, for their sake He
reproved kings: |
| טו אַל-תִּגְּעוּ בִמְשִׁיחָי;
וְלִנְבִיאַי, אַל-תָּרֵעוּ. |
15 'Touch not Mine anointed ones, and do My prophets no
harm.' |
| טז וַיִּקְרָא רָעָב, עַל-הָאָרֶץ;
כָּל-מַטֵּה-לֶחֶם שָׁבָר. |
16 And He called a famine upon the land; He broke the whole staff of
bread. |
| יז שָׁלַח לִפְנֵיהֶם אִישׁ; לְעֶבֶד,
נִמְכַּר יוֹסֵף. |
17 He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a
servant; |
| יח עִנּוּ בַכֶּבֶל רגליו (רַגְלוֹ);
בַּרְזֶל, בָּאָה נַפְשׁוֹ. |
18 His feet they hurt with fetters, his person was laid in
iron; |
| יט עַד-עֵת בֹּא-דְבָרוֹ-- אִמְרַת יְהוָה
צְרָפָתְהוּ. |
19 Until the time that his word came to pass, the word of the LORD
tested him. |
| כ שָׁלַח מֶלֶךְ, וַיַתִּירֵהוּ; מֹשֵׁל
עַמִּים, וַיְפַתְּחֵהוּ. |
20 The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the peoples, and
set him free. |
| כא שָׂמוֹ אָדוֹן לְבֵיתוֹ; וּמֹשֵׁל,
בְּכָל-קִנְיָנוֹ. |
21 He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his
possessions; |
| כב לֶאְסֹר שָׂרָיו בְּנַפְשׁוֹ; וּזְקֵנָיו
יְחַכֵּם. |
22 To bind his princes at his pleasure, and teach his elders
wisdom. |
| כג וַיָּבֹא יִשְׂרָאֵל מִצְרָיִם;
וְיַעֲקֹב, גָּר בְּאֶרֶץ-חָם. |
23 Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of
Ham. |
| כד וַיֶּפֶר אֶת-עַמּוֹ מְאֹד;
וַיַּעֲצִמֵהוּ, מִצָּרָיו. |
24 And He increased His people greatly, and made them too mighty for
their adversaries. |
| כה הָפַךְ לִבָּם, לִשְׂנֹא עַמּוֹ;
לְהִתְנַכֵּל, בַּעֲבָדָיו. |
25 He turned their heart to hate His people, to deal craftily with
His servants. |
| כו שָׁלַח, מֹשֶׁה עַבְדּוֹ; אַהֲרֹן,
אֲשֶׁר בָּחַר-בּוֹ. |
26 He sent Moses His servant, and Aaron whom He had
chosen. |
| כז שָׂמוּ-בָם, דִּבְרֵי אֹתוֹתָיו;
וּמֹפְתִים, בְּאֶרֶץ חָם. |
27 They wrought among them His manifold signs, and wonders in the
land of Ham. |
| כח שָׁלַח חֹשֶׁךְ, וַיַּחְשִׁךְ;
וְלֹא-מָרוּ, אֶת-דבריו (דְּבָרוֹ). |
28 He sent darkness, and it was dark; and they rebelled not against
His word. |
| כט הָפַךְ אֶת-מֵימֵיהֶם לְדָם; וַיָּמֶת,
אֶת-דְּגָתָם. |
29 He turned their waters into blood, and slew their
fish. |
| ל שָׁרַץ אַרְצָם צְפַרְדְּעִים;
בְּחַדְרֵי, מַלְכֵיהֶם. |
30 Their land swarmed with frogs, in the chambers of their
kings. |
| לא אָמַר, וַיָּבֹא עָרֹב; כִּנִּים,
בְּכָל-גְּבוּלָם. |
31 He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats in all their
borders. |
| לב נָתַן גִּשְׁמֵיהֶם בָּרָד; אֵשׁ
לֶהָבוֹת בְּאַרְצָם. |
32 He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their
land. |
| לג וַיַּךְ גַּפְנָם, וּתְאֵנָתָם;
וַיְשַׁבֵּר, עֵץ גְּבוּלָם. |
33 He smote their vines also and their fig-trees; and broke the trees
of their borders. |
| לד אָמַר, וַיָּבֹא אַרְבֶּה; וְיֶלֶק,
וְאֵין מִסְפָּר. |
34 He spoke, and the locust came, and the canker-worm without
number, |
| לה וַיֹּאכַל כָּל-עֵשֶׂב בְּאַרְצָם;
וַיֹּאכַל, פְּרִי אַדְמָתָם. |
35 And did eat up every herb in their land, and did eat up the fruit
of their ground. |
| לו וַיַּךְ כָּל-בְּכוֹר בְּאַרְצָם;
רֵאשִׁית, לְכָל-אוֹנָם. |
36 He smote also all the first-born in their land, the first-fruits
of all their strength. |
| לז וַיּוֹצִיאֵם, בְּכֶסֶף וְזָהָב; וְאֵין
בִּשְׁבָטָיו כּוֹשֵׁל. |
37 And He brought them forth with silver and gold; and there was none
that stumbled among His tribes. |
| לח שָׂמַח מִצְרַיִם בְּצֵאתָם: כִּי-נָפַל
פַּחְדָּם עֲלֵיהֶם. |
38 Egypt was glad when they departed; for the fear of them had fallen
upon them. |
| לט פָּרַשׂ עָנָן לְמָסָךְ; וְאֵשׁ,
לְהָאִיר לָיְלָה. |
39 He spread a cloud for a screen; and fire to give light in the
night. |
| מ שָׁאַל, וַיָּבֵא שְׂלָו; וְלֶחֶם
שָׁמַיִם, יַשְׂבִּיעֵם. |
40 They asked, and He brought quails, and gave them in plenty the
bread of heaven. |
| מא פָּתַח צוּר, וַיָּזוּבוּ מָיִם;
הָלְכוּ, בַּצִּיּוֹת נָהָר. |
41 He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; they ran, a river in
the dry places. |
| מב כִּי-זָכַר, אֶת-דְּבַר קָדְשׁוֹ;
אֶת-אַבְרָהָם עַבְדּוֹ. |
42 For He remembered His holy word unto Abraham His
servant; |
| מג וַיּוֹצִא עַמּוֹ בְשָׂשׂוֹן; בְּרִנָּה,
אֶת-בְּחִירָיו. |
43 And He brought forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with
singing. |
| מד וַיִּתֵּן לָהֶם, אַרְצוֹת גּוֹיִם;
וַעֲמַל לְאֻמִּים יִירָשׁוּ. |
44 And He gave them the lands of the nations, and they took the
labour of the peoples in possession; |
מה בַּעֲבוּר, יִשְׁמְרוּ חֻקָּיו--
וְתוֹרֹתָיו יִנְצֹרוּ;
הַלְלוּ-יָהּ. |
45 That they might keep His statutes, and observe His laws.
{N}
Hallelujah. |
