| הֹוד֣וּ לַ֭יהוָה קִרְא֣וּ בִּשְׁמֹ֑ו הֹודִ֥יעוּ בָ֝עַמִּ֗ים עֲלִילֹותָֽיו׃ | 1 |
Give thanks to the LORD! Call on his name! Make his doings known amongst the peoples.
| שִֽׁירוּ־לֹ֖ו זַמְּרוּ־לֹ֑ו שִׂ֝֗יחוּ בְּכָל־נִפְלְאֹותָֽיו׃ | 2 |
Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvellous works.
| הִֽ֭תְהַלְלוּ בְּשֵׁ֣ם קָדְשֹׁ֑ו יִ֝שְׂמַ֗ח לֵ֤ב ׀ מְבַקְשֵׁ֬י יְהוָֽה׃ | 3 |
Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek the LORD rejoice.
| דִּרְשׁ֣וּ יְהוָ֣ה וְעֻזֹּ֑ו בַּקְּשׁ֖וּ פָנָ֣יו תָּמִֽיד׃ | 4 |
Seek the LORD and his strength. Seek his face forever more.
| זִכְר֗וּ נִפְלְאֹותָ֥יו אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂ֑ה מֹ֝פְתָ֗יו וּמִשְׁפְּטֵי־פִֽיו׃ | 5 |
Remember his marvellous works that he has done: his wonders, and the judgements of his mouth,
| זֶ֭רַע אַבְרָהָ֣ם עַבְדֹּ֑ו בְּנֵ֖י יַעֲקֹ֣ב בְּחִירָֽיו׃ | 6 |
you offspring of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
| ה֭וּא יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵ֑ינוּ בְּכָל־הָ֝אָ֗רֶץ מִשְׁפָּטָֽיו׃ | 7 |
He is the LORD, our God. His judgements are in all the earth.
| זָכַ֣ר לְעֹולָ֣ם בְּרִיתֹ֑ו דָּבָ֥ר צִ֝וָּ֗ה לְאֶ֣לֶף דֹּֽור׃ | 8 |
He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,
| אֲשֶׁ֣ר כָּ֭רַת אֶת־אַבְרָהָ֑ם וּשְׁב֖וּעָתֹ֣ו לְיִשְׂחָֽק׃ | 9 |
the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,
| וַיַּֽעֲמִידֶ֣הָ לְיַעֲקֹ֣ב לְחֹ֑ק לְ֝יִשְׂרָאֵ֗ל בְּרִ֣ית עֹולָֽם׃ | 10 |
and confirmed it to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,
| לֵאמֹ֗ר לְךָ֗ אֶתֵּ֥ן אֶת־אֶֽרֶץ־כְּנָ֑עַן חֶ֝֗בֶל נַחֲלַתְכֶֽם׃ | 11 |
saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance,”
| בִּֽ֭הְיֹותָם מְתֵ֣י מִסְפָּ֑ר כִּ֝מְעַ֗ט וְגָרִ֥ים בָּֽהּ׃ | 12 |
when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.
| וַֽ֭יִּתְהַלְּכוּ מִגֹּ֣וי אֶל־גֹּ֑וי מִ֝מַּמְלָכָ֗ה אֶל־עַ֥ם אַחֵֽר׃ | 13 |
They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.
| לֹֽא־הִנִּ֣יחַ אָדָ֣ם לְעָשְׁקָ֑ם וַיֹּ֖וכַח עֲלֵיהֶ֣ם מְלָכִֽים׃ | 14 |
He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,
| אַֽל־תִּגְּע֥וּ בִמְשִׁיחָ֑י וְ֝לִנְבִיאַי אַל־תָּרֵֽעוּ׃ | 15 |
“Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”
| וַיִּקְרָ֣א רָ֭עָב עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ כָּֽל־מַטֵּה־לֶ֥חֶם שָׁבָֽר׃ | 16 |
He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.
| שָׁלַ֣ח לִפְנֵיהֶ֣ם אִ֑ישׁ לְ֝עֶ֗בֶד נִמְכַּ֥ר יֹוסֵֽף׃ | 17 |
He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.
| עִנּ֣וּ בַכֶּ֣בֶל רַגְלָיו (רַגְלֹ֑ו) בַּ֝רְזֶ֗ל בָּ֣אָה נַפְשֹֽׁו׃ | 18 |
They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,
| עַד־עֵ֥ת בֹּֽא־דְבָרֹ֑ו אִמְרַ֖ת יְהוָ֣ה צְרָפָֽתְהוּ׃ | 19 |
until the time that his word happened, and the LORD’s word proved him true.
| שָׁ֣לַח מֶ֭לֶךְ וַיַתִּירֵ֑הוּ מֹשֵׁ֥ל עַ֝מִּ֗ים וַֽיְפַתְּחֵֽהוּ׃ | 20 |
The king sent and freed him, even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.
| שָׂמֹ֣ו אָדֹ֣ון לְבֵיתֹ֑ו וּ֝מֹשֵׁ֗ל בְּכָל־קִנְיָנֹֽו׃ | 21 |
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions,
| לֶאְסֹ֣ר שָׂרָ֣יו בְּנַפְשֹׁ֑ו וּזְקֵנָ֥יו יְחַכֵּֽם׃ | 22 |
to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.
| וַיָּבֹ֣א יִשְׂרָאֵ֣ל מִצְרָ֑יִם וְ֝יַעֲקֹ֗ב גָּ֣ר בְּאֶֽרֶץ־חָֽם׃ | 23 |
Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.
| וַיֶּ֣פֶר אֶת־עַמֹּ֣ו מְאֹ֑ד וַ֝יַּֽעֲצִמֵהוּ מִצָּרָֽיו׃ | 24 |
He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.
| הָפַ֣ךְ לִ֭בָּם לִשְׂנֹ֣א עַמֹּ֑ו לְ֝הִתְנַכֵּ֗ל בַּעֲבָדָֽיו׃ | 25 |
He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.
| שָׁ֭לַח מֹשֶׁ֣ה עַבְדֹּ֑ו אַ֝הֲרֹ֗ן אֲשֶׁ֣ר בָּֽחַר־בֹּֽו׃ | 26 |
He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.
| שָֽׂמוּ־בָ֭ם דִּבְרֵ֣י אֹתֹותָ֑יו וּ֝מֹפְתִ֗ים בְּאֶ֣רֶץ חָֽם׃ | 27 |
They performed miracles amongst them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
| שָׁ֣לַֽח חֹ֭שֶׁךְ וַיַּחְשִׁ֑ךְ וְלֹֽא־מָ֝ר֗וּ אֶת־דְּבָרָוו (דְּבָרֹֽו)׃ | 28 |
He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn’t rebel against his words.
| הָפַ֣ךְ אֶת־מֵימֵיהֶ֣ם לְדָ֑ם וַ֝יָּ֗מֶת אֶת־דְּגָתָֽם׃ | 29 |
He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.
| שָׁרַ֣ץ אַרְצָ֣ם צְפַרְדְּעִ֑ים בְּ֝חַדְרֵ֗י מַלְכֵיהֶֽם׃ | 30 |
Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.
| אָ֭מַר וַיָּבֹ֣א עָרֹ֑ב כִּ֝נִּ֗ים בְּכָל־גְּבוּלָֽם׃ | 31 |
He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.
| נָתַ֣ן גִּשְׁמֵיהֶ֣ם בָּרָ֑ד אֵ֖שׁ לֶהָבֹ֣ות בְּאַרְצָֽם׃ | 32 |
He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.
| וַיַּ֣ךְ גַּ֭פְנָם וּתְאֵנָתָ֑ם וַ֝יְשַׁבֵּ֗ר עֵ֣ץ גְּבוּלָֽם׃ | 33 |
He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.
| אָ֭מַר וַיָּבֹ֣א אַרְבֶּ֑ה וְ֝יֶ֗לֶק וְאֵ֣ין מִסְפָּֽר׃ | 34 |
He spoke, and the locusts came with the grasshoppers, without number.
| וַיֹּ֣אכַל כָּל־עֵ֣שֶׂב בְּאַרְצָ֑ם וַ֝יֹּ֗אכַל פְּרִ֣י אַדְמָתָֽם׃ | 35 |
They ate up every plant in their land, and ate up the fruit of their ground.
| וַיַּ֣ךְ כָּל־בְּכֹ֣ור בְּאַרְצָ֑ם רֵ֝אשִׁ֗ית לְכָל־אֹונָֽם׃ | 36 |
He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.
| וַֽ֭יֹּוצִיאֵם בְּכֶ֣סֶף וְזָהָ֑ב וְאֵ֖ין בִּשְׁבָטָ֣יו כֹּושֵֽׁל׃ | 37 |
He brought them out with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person amongst his tribes.

Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them.
| פָּרַ֣שׂ עָנָ֣ן לְמָסָ֑ךְ וְ֝אֵ֗שׁ לְהָאִ֥יר לָֽיְלָה׃ | 39 |
He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.
| שָׁאַ֣ל וַיָּבֵ֣א שְׂלָ֑ו וְלֶ֥חֶם שָׁ֝מַ֗יִם יַשְׂבִּיעֵֽם׃ | 40 |
They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.
| פָּ֣תַח צ֭וּר וַיָּז֣וּבוּ מָ֑יִם הָ֝לְכ֗וּ בַּצִּיֹּ֥ות נָהָֽר׃ | 41 |
He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places.
| כִּֽי־זָ֭כַר אֶת־דְּבַ֣ר קָדְשֹׁ֑ו אֶֽת־אַבְרָהָ֥ם עַבְדֹּֽו׃ | 42 |
For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.
| וַיֹּוצִ֣א עַמֹּ֣ו בְשָׂשֹׂ֑ון בְּ֝רִנָּ֗ה אֶת־בְּחִירָֽיו׃ | 43 |
He brought his people out with joy, his chosen with singing.
| וַיִּתֵּ֣ן לָ֭הֶם אַרְצֹ֣ות גֹּויִ֑ם וַעֲמַ֖ל לְאֻמִּ֣ים יִירָֽשׁוּ׃ | 44 |
He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labour of the peoples in possession,
| בַּעֲב֤וּר ׀ יִשְׁמְר֣וּ חֻ֭קָּיו וְתֹורֹתָ֥יו יִנְצֹ֗רוּ הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ | 45 |
that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise the LORD!
