וְתָגֵל הָאָרֶץ, וְיֹאמְרוּ בַגּוֹיִם
יְיָ מָלָךְ: יִרְעַם הַיָּם וּמְלֹאוֹ,
יַעֲלֹץ הַשָּׂדֶה וְכָל אֲשֶׁר בּוֹ:
אָז יְרַנְּנוּ עֲצֵי הַיָּעַר, מִלִּפְנֵי
יְיָ כִּי בָא לִשְׁפּוֹט אֶת הָאָרֶץ:1
הוֹדוּ לַיְיָ כִּי טוֹב, כִּי לְעוֹלָם
חַסְדּוֹ: וְאִמְרוּ, הוֹשִׁיעֵנוּ אֱלֹהֵי
יִשְׁעֵנוּ, וְקַבְּצֵנוּ וְהַצִּילֵנוּ מִן
הַגּוֹיִם, לְהוֹדוֹת לְשֵׁם קָדְשֶׁךָ,
לְהִשְׁתַּבֵּחַ בִּתְהִלָּתֶךָ: בָּרוּךְ
יְיָ אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מִן הָעוֹלָם
וְעַד הָעוֹלָם, וַיֹּאמְרוּ כָּל
הָעָם אָמֵן וְהַלֵּל לַיְיָ: רוֹמְמוּ
יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְהִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַהֲדֹם
רַגְלָיו, קָדוֹשׁ הוּא: רוֹמְמוּ2 יְיָ
אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְהִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לְהַר קָדְשׁוֹ,
כִּי קָדוֹשׁ יְיָ אֱלֹהֵינוּ:

of the world will say, “The Lord has always been King of the universe.” The sea and everything in it will roar with joy; the fields and everything in them will rejoice. Then the joy in the world will be so great that even the trees in the forest will sing before the Lord when He comes to judge the people on earth1 and give them what they deserve. Give praise to the Lord because He is good, because His kindness lasts forever. Say to God, “Save us, God of our salvation. Gather us together and save us from the other nations, so that we can give thanks to Your holy name and be glorified by praising You.” When we praise You, we become glorious, because other nations see that we are Your nation. We should praise God by saying, “The Lord, God of the Children of Israel, is blessed forever, from this world to the next world.” All the people said, “Amen,” showing that they agree with everything that was just said, and they praised the Lord. Exalt the Lord, our God, and bow down in the direction of the Holy Temple, God’s footstool, because He is holy. Exalt the Lord,2 our God, and bow down in the direction of His holy mountain, the Temple Mount, because the Lord, our God, is holy.

Hebrew

חַסְדְּךָ וַאֲמִתְּךָ תָּמִיד יִצְּרוּנִי:
זְכֹר רַחֲמֶיךָ יְיָ וַחֲסָדֶיךָ,
כִּי מֵעוֹלָם הֵמָּה: תְּנוּ עֹז
לֵאלֹהִים, עַל יִשְׂרָאֵל גַּאֲוָתוֹ,

God is merciful and forgives our sins; He does not destroy us because of them. Many times He turns His anger away from us, and He does not stir up all of His anger. May You, Lord, not withhold Your mercy from me. Your kindness and Your truth will always protect me. Lord, remember Your acts of mercy and Your acts of kindness, because they have always been done—You’ve always acted with mercy and kindness. Nations of the world, give praise to God because of His strength. God’s pride rests upon the Children of Israel, and His power is shown in the skies. The fact that God controls the positions of the stars and the orbits of the planets in the sky shows us how powerful He is. God, You are feared because of the great miracles that You perform in Your Holy Temple. It is the God of the Children of Israel Who gives strength and power to His nation. God should be blessed for all of this. The Lord is a God of retribution. God of retribution, show Yourself. God, Judge of the earth, rise up and reveal Your glory to the world. Give the arrogant nations what they deserve. The power of salvation belongs to the Lord. God, may Your blessing be upon Your people forever. The Lord, the God of all creations, is always with us. The God of Jacob is our stronghold; He will give us strength forever. Fortunate is the person who trusts in You, Lord, God of all creations. Save us, Lord. May the King of the universe answer us on the day we call out to Him.

Hebrew

הוֹשִׁיעָה אֶת עַמֶּךָ וּבָרֵךְ
אֶת נַחֲלָתֶךָ, וּרְעֵם וְנַשְּׂאֵם
עַד הָעוֹלָם: נַפְשֵׁנוּ חִכְּתָה
לַיְיָ, עֶזְרֵנוּ וּמָגִנֵּנוּ הוּא: כִּי בוֹ
יִשְׂמַח לִבֵּנוּ, כִּי בְשֵׁם קָדְשׁוֹ
בָטָחְנוּ: יְהִי חַסְדְּךָ יְיָ עָלֵינוּ,

English

Save Your people, the Jewish Nation, from their enemies. Bless them in everything they do, because they are Your everlasting inheritance. Take care of them as a shepherd cares for his flock, and raise them above all the other nations forever. Our soul yearns for the Lord to save us. He has always been our rescuer and our shield. Our hearts will be happy; we will rejoice in God when we realize that He is the one Who saves us, because we trust in Him and His holy name. Lord, may Your kindness be upon us, as much as we have placed our hope

Commentary

1 Rather than being a source of fear or concern, God’s judgment in the era of the Redemption will be a source of joy. Just as a king who wishes to renovate his palace must first remove all the dirt and waste from within it, so must God use His judgment to remove all spiritual “dirt” and negativity from the world. This will prepare the world for a new revelation of Godliness, which will bring great joy to all creations.

2 The Talmud tells us that angels, too, exalt God in the heavens each day by praising Him. However, they are not permitted to begin their praises until the Jews on earth below have done so. This is hinted by the repeated expression “exalt.” The first verse, “Exalt... and bow to His footstool,” refers to the praise of the Jewish Nation on earth below; the second verse, “Exalt... and bow to His holy mountain” refers to the praise of the lofty angels.
