Hallel Psalm Praise the LORD! Yes, give praise, O servants of the LORD. Praise the name of the LORD! 2 Blessed be the name of the LORD forever and ever. 3Everywhere—from east to west—praise the name of the LORD. 4For the LORD is high above the nations; his glory is far greater than the heavens. 5Who can be compared with the LORD our God, who is enthroned on high? 6Far below him are the heavens and the earth.

Hallel Give thanks to HaShem; for he is good, for his mercy endures forever. Now let Israel say, “His Mercy endures forever.” Now let the house of Aaron say, “His mercy endures forever.” Now let those who fear HaShem say, “His mercy endures forever.” With HaShem on my side, I fear nothing---what can human beings do to me? With HaShem on my side as my help, I will look with triumph at those who hate me. It is better to take refuge in HaShem than to trust in human beings; Better to take refuge in HaShem than to put one’s trust in princes. The nations all surrounded me; in the name of HaShem I cut them down. HaShem is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation. The sound of rejoicing and victory is heard in the tents of the righteous:

“HaShem’s right hand struck powerfully! HaShem’s right hand is raised in triumph!” HaShem’s right hand struck powerfully! I will not die, NO, I will LIVE and proclaim the great deeds of HaShem! HaShem disciplined me severely, but did not hand me over to death. Open the gates of righteousness for me; I will enter them and thank HaShem. This is the gate of HaShem; the righteous can enter it. I am thankng you becaouse you answered me; you became my salvation. The very stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone! This has come from HaShem, and it is amazing in our eyes. This is the day HaShem has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. Please, Hashem! Save us! Please, HaShem! Rescue us! Blessed is he who comes in the name of HaShem! We bless you from the house of HaShem. HaShem is God, and he gives us light. Bring the sacrifice bound with branches all the wa to the horns of the altar. You are my God, and I thank you. You are my God; I exalt you. Give thanks to HaShem; for he is good, for his mercy endures forever.

Conclusion Pure One in heaven above, restore the congregation of Israel in Your love. Speedily lead Your redeemed people to Zion in joy. And many nations will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of HaShem, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.” For the Torah will go forth from Zion, the word of HaShem from Jerusalem. They will neither harm nor destroy on all My Holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of HaShem as the waters cover the sea. (Isaiah 11:9) May Messiah return quickly, and speedily restore all things! On that day HaShem will be One, and his name the only One. (Zech 14:9) NEXT YEAR IN JERUSALEM!
