Agadelcha

 
אֲגַדֶלְךָ


Agadelchá Elohei kol neshamá, ve'odechá berov páḥad ve'eimá.

Be'omdi tokh kehalchá Tzur leromem; lechá ekhrá ve'ekkof rosh vekomá.

Reki'ei rum haló natá bemivetá; veha'áretz yesadá al belimá.

Hayukhal ish ḥakor et sod yotzró; umi hu ze bekhol kedmá veyamá.

Meromam hu alê kol pe velashon, asher hiflí ve'asá chol beḥokhmá.

Veyitgadal begoi kadosh ve'elyon; veyitkadash shemeh rabá be'almá.
אֲגַדֶּלְךָ אֱלֹהֵי כָּל-נְשָׁמָה. וְאוֹדֶךָ בְּרָב-פַּחַד וְאֵימָה:

בְּעָמְדִי תֹּוךְ קְהַלְךָ צוּר לְרוֹמֵם. לְךָ אֶכְרַע וְאֶכּוֹף רֹאשׁ וְקוֹמָה:

רְקִיעֵי רוּם הֲלֹא נָטָה בְּמִבְטָא. וְהָאָרֶץ יְסָדָהּ עַל בְּלִימָה:

הֲיוּכַל אִיש חֲקוֹר אֶת סוֹד יוֹצְרוֹ. וּמִי הוּא זֶה בְּכָל-קֶדְמָה וְיָמָּה:

מְרֹומָם הוּא עֲלֵי כָל-פֶּה וְלָשוֹן. אֲשֶר הִפְלִיא וְעָשָׂה-כָּל בְּחָכְמָה:

וְיִתְגַּדַּל בְּגוֹי קָדוֹש וְעֶלְיוֹן. וְיִתְקַדַּשׁ שְׁמֵיהּ רַבָּא בְּעָלְמָא:

Translation:

I will greaten Your [reputation], God of all souls, and I will praise You with abundance of fear and awe.
In my standing within Your congregation, forever to exalt; to You I will kneel and lower my head and stature.
The firmament of heights, hasn't He planted [it] with [just a] grunt?—and the land, [he] established it on nothingness.
Is a man able [to] investigate the secret of his creation? And who is He Who is in every location?
He is praised by every mouth and tongue, which He miracled and made each in His wisdom.
And His [reputation] is exalted by a sacred and lofty nation; and may His Great Name be sanctified in the world!
