Siddur Part 6 Halelu-Yah!

Halelu-Yah! My soul, praise the Sacred One!
I will praise the Sacred One while I live;
I will sing praises to my God while I exist.
Do not put your trust in princes, nor in a human being,
in whom there is no salvation.
Whose breath goes forth, and returns to the earth;
whose thoughts will perish on that day.
Fortunate is one whose help is in the God of Ya`aqov,
whose hope is in God, the Sacred One.
Who made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that is in it;
who keeps truth for ever;
Who executes judgment for the oppressed;
Who gives food to the hungry.
The Sacred One frees the captives;
The Sacred One opens the eyes of the blind;
the Sacred One straightens those who are hunched over;
the Sacred One loves the righteous;
The Sacred One protects the strangers;
encouraging the orphan and the widow;
but makes the way of the wicked crooked.
The Sacred One will reign for ever, your God, Siyon,
to all generations, Halelu-Yah!

Halelu-Yah! For it is good to sing praises to our God;
for it is pleasant; and praise is fitting.
The Sacred One builds up Yerushalayim;
and gathers together the outcasts of Yisrael.
The One who heals the broken hearted,
and binds up their wounds.
Who counts the number of the stars;
and calls them all by names.
Great is our Master, and of great power;
of infinite understanding.
The Sacred One lifts up the humble;
and casts the wicked down to the ground.
Sing to the Sacred One with thanksgiving;
sing praise to our God upon the harp;
Who covers the heaven with clouds,
Who prepares rain for the earth,
Who makes the mountains sprout with grass.
Giving food to the beast, and to the young ravens that cry out.
Without delight in the strength of the horse;
without favoring the legs of a man.
The Sacred One takes pleasure in the reverent ones,
in those who hope in the kindness of the One.
Praise the Sacred One, Yerushalayim; praise your God, Siyon.
For the the bars of your gates have been strengthened;
and your children within you have been blessed by the One.
The One who makes peace in your borders,
and satiates you with the cream of the wheat.
The One who sends forth instruction upon earth;
Whose word runs very swiftly.
The One who gives snow like wool;
and scatters frost like ashes.
Casting forth ice like morsels;
who can stand before the coldness of the One?
Who sends out the word, and melts them;
and causes wind to blow, and the waters flow.
Who declares the word to Ya`aqov,
statutes and judgments to Yisrael.
This has not been done with any other nation;
and they have not known these judgements, Halelu-Yah!

Halelu-Yah! Praise the Sacred One from the heavens;
praise the One in the heights.
Praise the One, all the angels; praise the One, all the host.
Praise the One, sun and moon;
praise the One, all you stars of light.
Praise the One, heavens of heavens,
and the waters that are above the heavens.
Let them praise the idea of the Sacred One;
for the One instructed, and they were created.
And they were established by the One for ever and ever;
with a decree that will not be broken.
Praise the Sacred One from the earth,
sea giants, and all watery depths;
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapors;
stormy wind fulfilling the word;
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars;
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and winged birds;
Kings of the earth, and all peoples;
princes, and all judges of the earth;
Young men and also virgins; old men, and children;
Let them praise the idea of the Sacred One;
for the idea of whom is uniquely exalted;
With glory above the earth and heaven.
Raising the pride of the people, a praise for all the pious ones,
for the children of Yisrael, a people brought close. Halelu-Yah!

Halelu-Yah! Sing a new song to the Sacred One,
Whose praise is sounded in the congregation of the pious.
Let Yisrael rejoice in its Maker;
let the children of Siyon be joyful in their Ruler.
The idea of Whom will be praised in their dance;
to Whom they will sing praises with the tambourine and harp.
For the Sacred One takes pleasure in its people;
and will beautify the humble with salvation.
Let the pious be joyful in glory;
let them sing aloud upon their beds.
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,
and a two edged sword in their hand;
To execute vengeance upon the nations,
and chastisement upon the peoples;
To bind their kings with chains,
and their nobles with fetters of iron;
To execute upon them the judgment written;
this is an honor to all the pious ones. Halelu-Yah!

Halelu-Yah! Praise God in the sanctuary!
Praise the One in the firmament of Its power!
Praise the One for mighty acts!
Praise the One according to Its exceeding greatness!
Praise the One with the sound of the shofar!
Praise the One with the lyre and the harp!
Praise the One with the tambourine and dance!
Praise the One with stringed instruments and the pipe!
Praise the One with sounding cymbals!
Praise the One with loud crashing cymbals!
Let every thing that breathes praise the Sacred One! Halelu-Yah!

May the Sacred One be appreciated forever, Amen and Amen.
The Sacred One will reign forever, Amen and Amen.
And Dawid expressed His appreciation of the Sacred One
before all the congregation; and Dawid said,
Appreciated! You are the Sacred One, God of Yisrael our Parent,
from now until forever.
Yours, Sacred One, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory,
and the victory, and the majesty;
for all that is in heaven and in earth;
the majesty is Yours, Sacred One;
and you are exalted as head above all.
Riches and honor come from You, and You reign over all;
and in Your “hand” is power and might;
and in Your “hand” it is to make great, and to give strength to all.
Now therefore, our God, we thank you,
and praise the glorious idea of You.
May the glorious idea of You be appreciated,
which is exalted above all blessing and praise.
