1 הֹודוּ לַיהוָה קִרְאוּ בִּשְׁמֹו הֹודִיעוּ בָעַמִּים עֲלִילֹותָיו1 Al eluia! Give thanks to Yahweh, cal on his name, proclaim his deeds to the peoples!
2 שִׁירוּ־לֹו זַמְּרוּ־לֹו יחוּ בְּכָל־נִפְלְאֹותָיו2 Sing to him, make music for him, recount all his wonders!
3 הִתְהַלְלוּ בְּשֵׁם קָדְשֹׁו יִשְׂמַח לֵב ׀ מְבַקְשֵׁי יְהוָה3 Glory in his holy name, let the hearts that seek Yahweh rejoice!
4 דִּרְשׁוּ יְהוָה וְעֻזֹּו בַּקְּשׁוּ פָנָיו תָּמִיד4 Seek Yahweh and his strength, tirelessly seek his presence!
5 זִכְרוּ נִפְלְאֹותָיו אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂה מֹפְתָיו וּמִשְׁפְּטֵי־פִיו5 Remember the marvels he has done, his wonders, the judgements he has spoken.
6 זֶרַע אַבְרָהָם עַבְדֹּו בְּנֵי יַעֲקֹב בְּחִירָיו6 Stock of Abraham, his servant, children of Jacob whom he chose!
7 הוּא יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ בְּכָל־הָאָרֶץ מִשְׁפָּטָיו7 He is Yahweh our God, his judgements touch the whole world.
8 זָכַר לְעֹולָם בְּרִיתֹו דָּבָר צִוָּה לְאֶלֶף דֹּור8 He remembers his covenant for ever, the promise he laid down for a thousand generations,
9 אֲשֶׁר כָּרַת אֶת־אַבְרָהָם וּשְׁבוּעָתֹו לְיִשְׂחָק9 which he concluded with Abraham, the oath he swore to Isaac.
10 וַיַּעֲמִידֶהָ לְיַעֲקֹב לְחֹק לְיִשְׂרָאֵל בְּרִית עֹולָם10 He established it as a statute for Jacob, an everlasting covenant with Israel,
11 לֵאמֹר לְךָ אֶתֵּן אֶת־אֶרֶץ־כְּנָעַן חֶבֶל נַחֲלַתְכֶם11 saying, 'To you I give a land, Canaan, your allotted birthright.'
12 בִּהְיֹותָם מְתֵי מִסְפָּר כִּמְעַט וְגָרִים בָּהּ12 When they were insignificant in numbers, a handful of strangers in the land,
13 וַיִּתְהַלְּכוּ מִגֹּוי אֶל־גֹּוי מִמַּמְלָכָה אֶל־עַם אַחֵר13 wandering from country to country, from one kingdom and nation to another,
14 לֹא־הִנִּיחַ אָדָם לְעָשְׁקָם וַיֹּוכַח עֲלֵיהֶם מְלָכִים14 he al owed no one to oppress them; for their sake he instructed kings,
15 אַל־תִּגְּעוּ בִמְשִׁיחָי וְלִנְבִיאַי אַל־תָּרֵעוּ15 'Do not touch my anointed ones, to my prophets you may do no harm.'
16 וַיִּקְרָא רָעָב עַל־הָאָרֶץ כָּל־מַטֵּה־לֶחֶם שָׁבָר16 He cal ed down famine on the land, he took away their food supply;
17 שָׁלַח לִפְנֵיהֶם אִישׁ לְעֶבֶד נִמְכַּר יֹוסֵף17 he sent a man ahead of them, Joseph, sold as a slave.
18 עִנּוּ בַכֶּבֶל [רַגְלָיו כ] (רַגְלֹו ק) בַּרְזֶל בָּאָה נַפְשֹׁו18 So his feet were weighed down with shackles, his neck was put in irons.
19 עַד־עֵת בֹּא־דְבָרֹו אִמְרַת יְהוָה צְרָפָתְהוּ19 In due time his prophecy was fulfilled, the word of Yahweh proved him true.
20 שָׁלַח מֶלֶךְ וַיַתִּירֵהוּ מֹשֵׁל עַמִּים וַיְפַתְּחֵהוּ20 The king sent orders to release him, the ruler of nations set him free;
21 שָׂמֹו אָדֹון לְבֵיתֹו וּמֹשֵׁל בְּכָל־קִנְיָנֹו21 he put him in charge of his household, the ruler of al he possessed,
22 לֶאְסֹר שָׂרָיו בְּנַפְשֹׁו וּזְקֵנָיו יְחַכֵּם22 to instruct his princes as he saw fit, to teach his counsel ors wisdom.
23 וַיָּבֹא יִשְׂרָאֵל מִצְרָיִם וְיַעֲקֹב גָּר בְּאֶרֶץ־חָם23 Then Israel migrated to Egypt, Jacob settled in the country of Ham.
24 וַיֶּפֶר אֶת־עַמֹּו מְאֹד וַיַּעֲצִמֵהוּ מִצָּרָיו24 He made his people increase in numbers, he gave them more strength than their enemies,
25 הָפַךְ לִבָּם לִשְׂנֹא עַמֹּו לְהִתְנַכֵּל בַּעֲבָדָיו25 whose heart he turned to hate his own people, to double-cross his servants.
26 לַח מֹשֶׁה עַבְדֹּו אַהֲרֹן אֲשֶׁר בָּחַר־בֹּו26 He sent his servant Moses, and Aaron, the man of his choice.
27 שָׂמוּ־בָם דִּבְרֵי אֹתֹותָיו וּמֹפְתִים בְּאֶרֶץ חָם27 They worked there the wonders he commanded, marvels in the country of Ham.
28 שָׁלַח חֹשֶׁךְ וַיַּחְשִׁךְ וְלֹא־מָרוּ אֶת־ [דְּבָרָוו כ] (דְּבָרֹו׃ ק)28 Darkness he sent, and darkness fel , but that nation defied his orders.
29 הָפַךְ אֶת־מֵימֵיהֶם לְדָם וַיָּמֶת אֶת־דְּגָתָם29 He turned their rivers to blood, and kil ed al the fish in them.
30 שָׁרַץ אַרְצָם צְפַרְדְּעִים בְּחַדְרֵי מַלְכֵיהֶם30 Their country was overrun with frogs, even in the royal apartments;
31 אָמַר וַיָּבֹא עָרֹב כִּנִּים בְּכָל־גְּבוּלָם31 at his word came flies, and mosquitoes throughout the country.
32 נָתַן גִּשְׁמֵיהֶם בָּרָד אֵשׁ לֶהָבֹות בְּאַרְצָם32 He gave them hail as their rain, flames of fire in their land;
33 וַיַּךְ גַּפְנָם וּתְאֵנָתָם וַיְשַׁבֵּר עֵץ גְּבוּלָם33 he blasted their vine and their fig tree, and shattered the trees of the country.
34 אָמַר וַיָּבֹא אַרְבֶּה וְיֶלֶק וְאֵין מִסְפָּר34 At his word came locusts, hoppers beyond al counting;
35 וַיֹּאכַל כָּל־עֵשֶׂב בְּאַרְצָם וַיֹּאכַל פְּרִי אַדְמָתָם35 they devoured every green thing in the land, devoured al the produce of the soil.
36 וַיַּךְ כָּל־בְּכֹור בְּאַרְצָם רֵאשִׁית לְכָל־אֹונָם36 He struck al the first-born in their land, the flower of all their manhood;
37 וַיֹּוצִיאֵם בְּכֶסֶף וְזָהָב וְאֵין בִּשְׁבָטָיו כֹּושֵׁל37 he led Israel out with silver and gold; in their tribes there was none who stumbled.
38 שָׂמַח מִצְרַיִם בְּצֵאתָם כִּי־נָפַל פַּחְדָּם עֲלֵיהֶם38 Egypt was glad at their leaving, for terror of Israel had seized them.
39 פָּרַשׂ עָנָן לְמָסָךְ וְאֵשׁ לְהָאִיר לָיְלָה39 He spread out a cloud to cover them, and fire to light up the night.
40 שָׁאַל וַיָּבֵא שְׂלָו וְלֶחֶם מַיִם יַשְׂבִּיעֵם40 They asked and he brought them quails, food from heaven to their hearts' content;
41 פָּתַח צוּר וַיָּזוּבוּ מָיִם הָלְכוּ בַּצִּיֹּות נָהָר41 he opened a rock, the waters gushed out, and flowed in dry ground as a river.
42 כִּי־זָכַר אֶת־דְּבַר קָדְשֹׁו אֶת־אַבְרָהָם עַבְדֹּו42 Faithful to his sacred promise, given to his servant Abraham,
43 וַיֹּוצִא עַמֹּו בְשָׂשֹׂון בְּרִנָּה אֶת־בְּחִירָיו43 he led out his people with rejoicing, his chosen ones with shouts of joy.
44 וַיִּתֵּן לָהֶם אַרְצֹות גֹּויִם וַעֲמַל לְאֻמִּים יִירָשׁוּ44 He gave them the territories of nations, they reaped the fruit of other people's labours,
45 בַּעֲבוּר ׀ יִשְׁמְרוּ חֻקָּיו וְתֹורֹתָיו יִנְצֹרוּ הַלְלוּ־יָהּ45 on condition that they kept his statutes, and remained obedient to his laws.
