English text

I will bless the Lord on High, by day and by the night.
God's praise be always in my mouth.
My soul shall e'er rejoice in God, praise the Lord, my soul!
May the humble hear it. And be joyful.
Come, magnify the Lord, our God, now! Come, magnify Him!
Let us exalt Him, let's exalt His name together!
Hallelujah!
