< Salme 148 >
1 Halleluja! Pris HERREN i Himlen, pris ham i det høje!
Praise YAH! Praise YHWH from the heavens, Praise Him in high places.
2 Pris ham, alle hans Engle, pris ham, alle hans Hærskarer,
Praise Him, all His messengers, Praise Him, all His hosts.
3 pris ham, Sol og Maane, pris ham, hver lysende Stjerne,
Praise Him, sun and moon, Praise Him, all stars of light.
4 pris ham, Himlenes Himle og Vandene over Himlene!
Praise Him, heavens of heavens, And you waters that are above the heavens.
5 De skal prise HERRENS Navn, thi han bød, og de blev skabt;
They praise the Name of YHWH, For He commanded, and they were created.
6 han gav dem deres Plads for evigt, han gav en Lov, som de ej overtræder!
And He establishes them forever and for all time, He gave a statute, and they do not pass over.
7 Lad Pris stige op til HERREN fra Jorden, I Havdyr og alle Dyb,
Praise YHWH from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
8 Ild og Hagl, Sne og Røg, Storm, som gør, hvad han siger,
Fire and hail, snow and vapor, Whirlwind doing His word;
9 I Bjerge og alle Høje, Frugttræer og alle Cedre,
The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,
10 I vilde Dyr og alt Kvæg, Krybdyr og vingede Fugle,
The wild beast, and all livestock, Creeping thing, and winged bird,
11 I Jordens Konger og alle Folkeslag, Fyrster og alle Jordens Dommere,
Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,
12 Ynglinge sammen med Jomfruer, gamle sammen med unge!
Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,
13 De skal prise HERRENS Navn, thi ophøjet er hans Navn alene, hans Højhed omspænder Jord og Himmel.
They praise the Name of YHWH, For His Name alone has been set on high, His splendor [is] above earth and heavens.
14 Han løfter et Horn for sit Folk, lovprist af alle sine fromme, af Israels Børn, det Folk, der staar ham nær. Halleluja!
And He exalts the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, A people near Him. Praise YAH!
