ג

3 Great is Yahweh—and worthy to be heartily praised, And his greatness is unsearchable.

ד

4 Generation unto generation shall celebrate thy works, And thy mighty deeds shall they tell:

ה

5 The splendour of the glory of thy majesty shall they speak, And thy wonders will I utter.

ו

6 And the might of thy terrible acts shall men speak, And as for thy greatness I will recount it.

ז

7 The memory of thy great goodness shall men pour forth, And thy righteousness shall they shout aloud.

9 Good is Yahweh to all, And his tender compassions are over all his works.

י

10 All thy works, O Yahweh, will give thanks unto thee,—And thy men of lovingkindness will bless thee:
