< 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!
Praise the LORD. Praise the LORD from the heavens. Praise him in the heights.
Praise him, all his angels. Praise him, all his army.
3 日頭月亮,你們要讚美他! 放光的星宿,你們都要讚美他!
Praise him, sun and moon. Praise him, all you shining stars.
Praise him, you heavens of heavens, You waters that are above 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 praise the name of the LORD, For he commanded, and they were created.
6 他將這些立定,直到永永遠遠; 他定了命,不能廢去。
He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.
Praise the LORD from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths.
Lightning and hail, snow and clouds; stormy wind, fulfilling his word;
mountains and all hills; fruit trees and all cedars;
wild animals and all livestock; small creatures and flying birds;
kings of the earth and all peoples; princes 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!
both young men and maidens; 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 praise the name of the LORD, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
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 lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his faithful ones; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise the LORD.
