1

יְהֹוָ֣ה מָלָךְ֮ גֵּא֢וּת לָ֫בֵ֥שׁ לָבֵ֣שׁ יְ֭הֹוָה עֹ֣ז הִתְאַזָּ֑ר אַף־תִּכּ֥וֹן תֵּ֝בֵ֗ל בַּל־תִּמּֽוֹט׃

Adonai malakh ge'ut lavesh lavesh Adonai oz hitazzar af-tikkon tevel bal-timmot

GOD is sovereign, and robed in grandeur; GOD is robed, and girded with strength. The world stands firm; it cannot be shaken.

2

נָכ֣וֹן כִּסְאֲךָ֣ מֵאָ֑ז מֵעוֹלָ֣ם אָֽתָּה׃

nakhon kisakha me'az me'olam attah

Your throne stands firm from of old; from eternity You have existed.

3

נָשְׂא֤וּ נְהָר֨וֹת ׀ יְֽהֹוָ֗ה נָשְׂא֣וּ נְהָר֣וֹת קוֹלָ֑ם יִשְׂא֖וּ נְהָר֣וֹת דׇּכְיָֽם׃

nase'u neharot Adonai nase'u neharot qolam yisu neharot dokhyam

The ocean sounds, O ETERNAL One, the ocean sounds its thunder, the ocean sounds its pounding.

4

מִקֹּל֨וֹת ׀ מַ֤יִם רַבִּ֗ים אַדִּירִ֣ים מִשְׁבְּרֵי־יָ֑ם אַדִּ֖יר בַּמָּר֣וֹם יְהֹוָֽה׃

miqqolot mayim rabbim addirim mishbere-yam addir bammarom Adonai

Above the thunder of the mighty waters, more majestic than the breakers of the sea is GOD, majestic on high.

5

עֵֽדֹתֶ֨יךָ ׀ נֶאֶמְנ֬וּ מְאֹ֗ד לְבֵיתְךָ֥ נַאֲוָה־קֹ֑דֶשׁ יְ֝הֹוָ֗ה לְאֹ֣רֶךְ יָמִֽים׃ {פ}

edotekha ne'emnu me'od levetekha na'avah-qodesh Adonai le'orekh yamim

Your decrees are indeed enduring; holiness befits Your house, O ETERNAL One, for all times.
