1 Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.
2 You who are in the house of the Lord, and in the open spaces of the house of our God,
3 Give praise to Jah, for he is good: make melody to his name, for it is pleasing.
4 For the Lord has taken Jacob for himself, and Israel for his property.
5 I know that the Lord is great, and that our Lord is greater than all other gods.
6 The Lord has done whatever was pleasing to him, in heaven, and on the earth, in the seas and in all the deep waters.
7 He makes the mists go up from the ends of the earth; he makes thunder-flames for the rain; he sends out the winds from his store-houses.
8 He put to death the first-fruits of Egypt, of man and of beast.
9 He sent signs and wonders among you, O Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.
10 He overcame great nations, and put strong kings to death;
11 Sihon, king of the Amorites, and Og, king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan;
12 And gave their land for a heritage, even for a heritage to Israel his people.
13 O Lord, your name is eternal; and the memory of you will have no end.
14 For the Lord will be judge of his people's cause; his feelings will be changed to his servants.
15 The images of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
16 They have mouths, but no voice, they have eyes, but they do not see;
17 They have ears, but no hearing; and there is no breath in their mouths.
18 Those who make them are like them; and so is everyone who puts his hope in them.
19 Give praise to the Lord, O children of Israel: give praise to the Lord, O sons of Aaron:
20 Give praise to the Lord, O sons of Levi: let all the worshippers of the Lord give him praise.
21 Praise be to the Lord out of Zion, even to the Lord whose house is in Jerusalem, Let the Lord be praised.
1 (134:1) Аллилуия. Хвалите имя Господне, хвалите, рабы Господни,
2 (134:2) стоящие в доме Господнем, во дворах дома Бога нашего.
3 (134:3) Хвалите Господа, ибо Господь благ; пойте имени Его, ибо это сладостно,
4 (134:4) ибо Господь избрал Себе Иакова, Израиля в собственность Свою.
5 (134:5) Я познал, что велик Господь, и Господь наш превыше всех богов.
6 (134:6) Господь творит все, что хочет, на небесах и на земле, на морях и во всех безднах;
7 (134:7) возводит облака от края земли, творит молнии при дожде, изводит ветер из хранилищ Своих.
8 (134:8) Он поразил первенцев Египта, от человека до скота,
9 (134:9) послал знамения и чудеса среди тебя, Египет, на фараона и на всех рабов его,
10 (134:10) поразил народы многие и истребил царей сильных:
11 (134:11) Сигона, царя Аморрейского, и Ога, царя Васанского, и все царства Ханаанские;
12 (134:12) и отдал землю их в наследие, в наследие Израилю, народу Своему.
13 (134:13) Господи! имя Твое вовек; Господи! память о Тебе в род и род.
14 (134:14) Ибо Господь будет судить народ Свой и над рабами Своими умилосердится.
15 (134:15) Идолы язычников – серебро и золото, дело рук человеческих:
16 (134:16) есть у них уста, но не говорят; есть у них глаза, но не видят;
17 (134:17) есть у них уши, но не слышат, и нет дыхания в устах их.
18 (134:18) Подобны им будут делающие их и всякий, кто надеется на них.
19 (134:19) Дом Израилев! благословите Господа. Дом Ааронов! благословите Господа.
20 (134:20) Дом Левиин! благословите Господа. Боящиеся Господа! благословите Господа.
21 (134:21) Благословен Господь от Сиона, живущий в Иерусалиме! Аллилуия!
