1 (1) Great are you, O Lord, Almighty One, and great is your strength,
and of your understanding there is no numbering!
2 O Creator, Savior, Rich One in favors,
Long-sufferer, and Supplier of mercy,
Who do not withdraw from the salvation of your creatures!
3 For by nature you are good;
yet you spare those who are sinning, summoning them to repentance,
for your waming is merciful!
4 For how should we have withstood,
having swift judgment demanded of us?
We who, when being treated patiently, with difficulty refuse our weakness?
5 (2) The heavens proclaimed your might;
and earth, (though) being shaken, (proclaimed) your firmness,
being hung upon nothing!
6 (The) sea, surging with waves,
and shepherding a herd of countless living creatures,
has been shackled with sand,
has shuddered at your Will,
and compels all to cry out:
7 How magnified are your works, O Lord!
You made everything with Wisdom;
the earth wasfilled with your creating!
8 (3) And an army of angels breaking forth,
and intellectual spirits say to Phelmuni,
There is one Holy One!
9 And holy seraphim, together with the six-winged cherubim, singing to you the triumphal song, with never-silent voices cry out,
10 Holy, holy, holy, Lord Sabaoth,
the heaven and the earth are full of your glory!
11 And the Other throngs of the hosts, archangels, thrones, dominions, sovereignties,
authorities, powers, crying out, say,
12 Blessed be the glory of the Lord from its place!
13 (4) But Israel, your earthly assembly out of (the) gentiles,
competing with the heavenly powers by night and by day,
14 with heart filled to the brim and with a Willing spirit sings,
15 The chariot of God is ten thousands multiplied by thousands of thriving ones;
the Lord is among them in Sinai, in the holy place!
16 (5) Heaven knows the one who raised it as a vault upon nothing,
like a stone cube,
17 and united earth and water with each Other,
and poured out air for keeping animals,
18 and plaited together with this fired for warmth and encouragement in darkness.
19 The chorus of stars amazes,
pointing out the one who numbered (them),
and showing the one who named (them).
20 Living creatures (point to) the one who gave (them) life;
trees (point to) the one who produced (them);
21 as all things, having been made by your word, suggest the might of your power.
22 (6) Wherefore also all men ought, from their very breasts,
to send up to you through Christ the hymn on behalf of all,
by reason of you who hold power over all things.
23 (7) For you are the Kind One in good deeds,
and One fond of giving with compassions,
the only All-Mighty one!
For when you desire, to be able is present with you
24 For your eternal power even cools flames,
and muzzles lions, and tames sea monsters,
and raises those who are sick, and overtums powers,
and overthrows an army of enemies and a people numbered for its arrogance.
25 (8) You are the one in heaven, the one upon earth,
the one in the sea,
the one in the farthest boundaries, bounded by nothing.
For of your greatness there is no boundary.
26 For this oracle is not ours, Master, but your servant•s, saying,
And you Shall know in your heart that your God is (the) Lord,
God in heaven above, and upon earth beneath,
and there is no other beside him!
27 (9) For there is no god beside you alone, there is no Holy one beside you;
28 Lord God of knowledge,
God of holy ones,
Holy one above all holy ones.
For those who have been made holy are under your hands.
29 (You are) honored and exalted exceedingly:
invisible by nature,
30 unsearchable in judgments,
whose life is in want of nothing.
31 Unchangeable and unceasing is (your) continuance.
Untiring is (your) activity.
32 Unlimited is (your) greatness.
Unfailing is (your) beauty.
33 Unapproachable is (your) dwelling-place.
Unremovable is (your) resting-place.
34 Without beginning is (your) knowledge.
Unchangeable is (your) truth.
35 Unmediated is (your) work.
Unplotted against is (your) strength.
36 Without successor is (your) monarchy.
Unending is (your) kingdom.
37 Without adversary is (your) might.
Great in number is (your) army.
38 (10) For you are the Father of Wisdom,
the Creator, as cause, of the creative workmanship through a Mediator;
39 the Supplier of foresight;
the Giver of laws;
the Fulfiller of needs;
40 the Punisher of the ungodly,
and the Rewarder of the righteous;
41 the God and Father of the Christ
and the Lord of those who are pious toward him;
42 whose promise is not deceptive,
(whose) judgment is without bribery,
43 (whose) knowledge is never faithless,
(whose) religion is never-ending,
44 (whose) thanksgiving is everlasting;
through whom also the worship wofihy of you is owed by every reasonable and holy nature!
