2who stand in the house of Hashem, in the courts of the house of our God.

3Praise Hashem, for Hashem is good; sing hymns to His name, for it is pleasant.

גהַֽלְלוּ־יָ֭הּ כִּֽי־ט֣וֹב יְהֹוָ֑ה זַמְּר֥וּ לִ֝שְׁמ֗וֹ כִּ֣י נָעִֽים׃

4For Hashem has chosen Yaakov for Himself, Yisrael, as His treasured possession.

5For I know that Hashem is great, that our Lord is greater than all gods.

7He makes clouds rise from the end of the earth; He makes lightning for the rain; He releases the wind from His vaults.
