Bless Adonai, Angels on High
A portion of Psalm 103 paints a powerful reality that calls all of us to join the praises of angels and all of God's creation. They already praise the Almighty, so why can't we join them? Below is the song and the words to another musical composition inspired by this Psalm.

בָּרֲכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יהוה
וְכָל־קְרָבַי אֶת־שֵׁם קָדְשׁוֹ
בָּרֲכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יהוה
וְאַל־תִּשְׁכְּחִי כָּל־גְּמוּלוֹ
Bless ADONAI, angels on high,
Working his laws, never still.
Bless ADONAI, armies of light,
You mighty doers of will.
Bless ADONAI, O creative works,
In his vast dominion of worlds.
Bless ADONAI, O my soul,
O, bless the LORD, my soul.
Bless my soul, ADONAI all within me bless His name.
Bless my soul, ADONAI holy deeds do not forget.
בָּרֲכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יהוה
All within me bless His name.
בָּרֲכִי נַפְשִׁי אֶת־יהוה
Holy deeds do not forget.
Hebrew-English Interlinear Psalms
For those who love Psalms and especially love the way they sound in Hebrew, this handy volume presents them in an interlinear format. As it is with most poetry, sometimes translations are not so straightforward, and it's so easy to see what original words lay behind the English text. This volume allows students of Hebrew to quickly build their biblical Hebrew vocabulary and, at the same time, immerse themselves into their favorite psalms. I have used it for both study and for devotional reading as well. And I can recommend it for those who would like to try the Psalms in original and grow in their comprehension of the biblical language as they read.
