< 詩篇 148 >
1 你們要讚美耶和華! 從天上讚美耶和華, 在高處讚美他!
Give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised from the heavens: give him praise in the skies.
Give praise to him, all you his angels: give praise to him, all his armies.
3 日頭月亮,你們要讚美他! 放光的星宿,你們都要讚美他!
Give praise to him, you sun and moon: give praise to him, all you stars of light.
Give praise to him, you highest heavens, and you waters which are over the heavens.
5 願這些都讚美耶和華的名! 因他一吩咐便都造成。
Let them give praise to the name of the Lord: for he gave the order, and they were made.
6 他將這些立定,直到永永遠遠; 他定了命,不能廢去。
He has put them in their places for ever; he has given them their limits which may not be broken.
Give praise to the Lord from the earth, you great sea-beasts, and deep places:
Fire and rain of ice, snow and mists; storm-wind, doing his word:
Mountains and all hills; fruit-trees and all trees of the mountains:
Beasts and all cattle; insects and winged birds:
Kings of the earth, and all peoples; rulers and all judges of the earth:
12 少年人和處女, 老年人和孩童, 都當讚美耶和華!
Young men and virgins; old men and children:
13 願這些都讚美耶和華的名! 因為獨有他的名被尊崇; 他的榮耀在天地之上。
Let them give glory to the name of the Lord: for his name only is to be praised: his kingdom is over the earth and the heaven.
14 他將他百姓的角高舉, 因此他一切聖民以色列人, 就是與他相近的百姓,都讚美他! 你們要讚美耶和華!
He has put on high the horn of his people, for the praise of all his saints; even the children of Israel, a people which is near to him. Let the Lord be praised.
