Psalms 146:1, word by word

Praiseהַלְלוּhallu

praise

To celebrate someone's greatness with voice and song, above all YHWH's.

Where else “hallu” appears

Yahיָהּyah

Yah

Yah: the short form of the name YHWH. It is the form found in "Hallelujah" ("praise Yah").

Where else “yah” appears

YHWHיְהוָהyehva

YHWH

The personal name of the God of Israel, written in Hebrew with four letters, Y-H-W-H, without vowels. Out of reverence Jews stopped pronouncing it and read "Adonai" (Lord), so many Bibles put "the LORD" or "Jehovah". This translation keeps the four letters. The name is related to the verb "to be" (Exodus 3:14-15). He is not a god other than Elohim: "YHWH Elohim" is the same Creator God, called by his name.

Where else “yehva” appears

my soulנַפְשִׁnafshi

soul

A person's innermost self: what they feel and desire.
