Psalm 150

Ψαλμοί

Psalm 150 in the Hebrew numbering, which most Western Bibles follow.

1 Ἀλληλούϊα. ΑΙΝΕΙΤΕ τὸν Θεὸν ἐν τοῖς ἁγίοις αὐτοῦ, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν στερεώματι τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ·

Alleluia. Praise God in his holy places: praise him in the firmament of his power.

2 αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ ταῖς δυναστείαις αὐτοῦ, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν κατὰ τὸ πλῆθος τῆς μεγαλωσύνης αὐτοῦ.

Praise him on [account of] his mighty acts: praise him according to his abundant greatness.

3 αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν ἤχῳ σάλπιγγος, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν ψαλτηρίῳ καὶ κιθάρᾳ·

Praise him with the sound of a trumpet: praise him with lute and harp.

4 αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν τυμπάνῳ καὶ χορῷ, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν χορδαῖς καὶ ὀργάνῳ·

Praise him with timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and the organ.

5 αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν κυμβάλοις εὐήχοις, αἰνεῖτε αὐτὸν ἐν κυμβάλοις ἀλαλαγμοῦ.

Praise him with melodious cymbals: praise him with loud cymbals.

6 πᾶσα πνοὴ αἰνεσάτω τὸν Κύριον. ἀλληλούϊα.

Let every thing that has breath praise the Lord.
