Psalms 148
1 Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens. Praise him in the heights.
Halleluja. Lofver, I himlar, Herran; lofver honom i höjdene.
2 Praise ye him, all his agents. Praise ye him, all his host.
Lofver honom, alle hans Änglar; lofver honom, all hans här.
3 Praise ye him, sun and moon. Praise him, all ye stars of light.
Lofver honom, sol och måne; lofver honom, alla skinande stjernor.
4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
Lofver honom, I himlar, allt omkring, och de vatten, som ofvan himmelen äro.
5 Let them praise the name of Jehovah. For he commanded, and they were created.
De skola lofva Herrans Namn; ty han bjuder, så varder det skapadt.
6 He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which shall not pass away.
Han håller dem alltid och evinnerliga; han skickar dem, att de icke annorlunda gå måste.
7 Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps,
Lofver Herran på jordene; I hvalfiskar och all djup;
8 fire and hail, snow and vapor, stormy wind, fulfilling his word,
Eld, hagel, snö och dimba, stormväder, de hans ord uträtta;
9 mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars,
Berg, och alle högar; fruktsam trä, och alle cedrer;
10 beasts and all cattle, creeping things and flying birds,
Djur och all fänad; krypande djur, och foglar.
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, rulers and all judges of the earth,
I Konungar på jordene, och all folk; Förstar, och alle domare på jordene;
12 both young men and virgins, old men and sons.
Ynglingar och jungfrur; de gamle med de unga;
13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
Skolen lofva Herrans Namn; ty hans Namn allena är högt; hans lof går så vidt som himmel och jord är.
14 And he has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his sanctified, even of the sons of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye Jehovah.
Och han upphöjer sins folks horn; alle hans helige skola lofva, Israels barn, det folk, som honom tjenar. Halleluja.
