Nava Tehila is from psalm 147 verses 1 to 5 in the original Hebrew ( English below)
הַלְלוּיָהּ כִּי טוֹב זַמְּרָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ כִּי-נָעִים
נָאוָה תְהִלָּה הַלְלוּיָהּ
בּוֹנֵה יְרוּשָׁלִַם ה׳ נִדְחֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל יְכַנֵּס
הָרֹפֵא לִשְׁבוּרֵי לֵב וּמְחַבֵּשׁ לְעַצְּבוֹתָם
מוֹנֶה מִסְפָּר לַכּוֹכָבִים
לְכֻלָּם, שֵׁמוֹת יִקְרָא
גָּדוֹל אֲדוֹנֵינוּ וְרַב-כֹּחַ
לִתְבוּנָתוֹ אֵין מִסְפָּר
טוֹב זַמְּרָה
תְהִלָּה
