1Hallelujah! How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and lovely to praise Him!
1Ἀλληλούϊα· Ἀγγαίου καὶ Ζαχαρίου. ΕΠΑΙΝΕΙ, Ἱερουσαλήμ, τὸν Κύριον, αἴνει τὸν Θεόν σου, Σιών,
2The LORD builds up Jerusalem; He gathers the exiles of Israel.
2ὅτι ἐνίσχυσε τοὺς μοχλοὺς τῶν πυλῶν σου, εὐλόγησε τοὺς υἱούς σου ἐν σοί·
3He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
3ὁ τιθεὶς τὰ ὅριά σου εἰρήνην καὶ στέαρ πυροῦ ἐμπιπλῶν σε·
4He determines the number of the stars; He calls them each by name.
4ὁ ἀποστέλλων τὸ λόγιον αὐτοῦ τῇ γῇ, ἕως τάχους δραμεῖται ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ·
5Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding has no limit.
5διδόντος χιόνα αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ ἔριον, ὁμίχλην ὡσεὶ σποδὸν πάσσοντος·
6The LORD sustains the humble, but casts the wicked to the ground.
6βάλλοντος κρύσταλλον αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ ψωμούς, κατὰ πρόσωπον ψύχους αὐτοῦ τίς ὑποστήσεται;
7Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make music on the harp to our God,
7ἐξαποστελεῖ τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ καὶ τήξει αὐτά· πνεύσει τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ καὶ ρυήσεται ὕδατα.
8who covers the sky with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow on the hills.
8ὁ ἀπαγγέλλων τὸν λόγον αὐτοῦ τῷ Ἰακώβ, δικαιώματα καὶ κρίματα αὐτοῦ τῷ Ἰσραήλ.
9He provides food for the animals, and for the young ravens when they call.
9οὐκ ἐποίησεν οὕτως παντὶ ἔθνει καὶ τὰ κρίματα αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἐδήλωσεν αὐτοῖς.
10He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He takes no pleasure in the legpower of the man.
