The text of the psalm

הַלְלוּיָהּ הַלְלוּ־אֵל בְּקָדְשׁוֹ הַלְלוּהוּ בִּרְקִיעַ עֻזּֽוֹ׃

Hallelujah. Praise God in His sanctuary; Praise Him in the firmament of His power.

הַלְלוּהוּ בִגְבוּרֹתָיו הַלְלוּהוּ כְּרֹב גֻּדְלֽוֹ׃

Praise Him for His mighty acts; Praise Him according to His abundant greatness.

הַלְלוּהוּ בְּתֵקַע שׁוֹפָר הַלְלוּהוּ בְּנֵבֶל וְכִנּֽוֹר׃

Praise Him with the blast of the horn; Praise Him with the psaltery and harp.

הַלְלוּהוּ בְּתֹף וּמָחוֹל הַלְלוּהוּ בְּמִנִּים וְעוּגָֽב׃

Praise Him with the timbrel and dance; Praise Him with stringed instruments and the pipe.

הַלְלוּהוּ בְצִלְצְלֵי־שָׁמַע הַלְלוּהוּ בְּצִלְצְלֵי תְרוּעָֽה׃

Praise Him with the loud-sounding cymbals; Praise Him with the clanging cymbals.

כֹּל הַנְּשָׁמָה תְּהַלֵּל יָהּ הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃

Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Hallelujah.
