For you are their glory and strength, and by your favor you exalt our horn.

For you are the glory of their strength; by your favor our horn is exalted.

You are their glorious strength. It pleases you to make us strong.

For you are their magnificent strength;  by your favor our horn is exalted.

For thou art the glory of their strength: And in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.

For You are the glory of their strength, And in Your favor our horn is exalted.

GOD! Let the cosmos praise your wonderful ways, the choir of holy angels sing anthems to your faithful ways! Search high and low, scan skies and land, you’ll find nothing and no one quite like GOD. The holy angels are in awe before him; he looms immense and august over everyone around him. GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies, who is like you, powerful and faithful from every angle? You put the arrogant ocean in its place and calm its waves when they turn unruly. You gave that old hag Egypt the back of your hand, you brushed off your enemies with a flick of your wrist. You own the cosmos—you made everything in it, everything from atom to archangel. You positioned the North and South Poles; the mountains Tabor and Hermon sing duets to you. With your well-muscled arm and your grip of steel— nobody messes with you! The Right and Justice are the roots of your rule; Love and Truth are its fruits. Blessed are the people who know the passwords of praise, who shout on parade in the bright presence of GOD. Delighted, they dance all day long; they know who you are, what you do—they can’t keep it quiet! Your vibrant beauty has gotten inside us— you’ve been so good to us! We’re walking on air! All we are and have we owe to GOD, Holy God of Israel, our King!

For You are the glory of their strength, And by Your favor our horn is exalted.

For You are the glory of their strength [their proud adornment], And by Your favor our horn is exalted.

For you give them splendor and strength. By your favor we are victorious.
