Psalms 148

1 Hallelujah! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the highest places.

Aleluja! Hvalite Jahvu s nebesa, hvalite ga u visinama!

2 Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His heavenly hosts.

Hvalite ga, svi anđeli njegovi, hvalite ga, sve vojske njegove!

3 Praise Him, O sun and moon; praise Him, all you shining stars.

Hvalite ga, sunce i mjeseče, hvalite ga, sve zvijezde svjetlosne!

4 Praise Him, O highest heavens, and you waters above the skies.

Hvalite ga, nebesa nebeska, i vode nad svodom nebeskim!

5 Let them praise the name of the LORD, for He gave the command and they were created.

Neka hvale ime Jahvino jer on zapovjedi i postadoše.

6 He established them forever and ever; He issued a decree that will never pass away.

Postavi ih zauvijek i dovijeka po zakonu koji neće proći.

7 Praise the LORD from the earth, all great sea creatures and ocean depths,

Hvalite Jahvu sa zemlje, nemani morske i svi bezdani!

8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, powerful wind fulfilling His word,

Ognju i grÓade, sniježe i maglo, olujni vjetre, što riječ njegovu izvršavaš!

9 mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,

Gore i svi brežuljci, plodonosna stabla i svi cedrovi!

10 wild animals and all cattle, crawling creatures and flying birds,

Zvijeri i sve životinje, gmizavci i ptice krilate!

11 kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all rulers of the earth,

Zemaljski kraljevi i svi narodi, knezovi i suci zemaljski!

12 young men and maidens, old and young together.

Mladići i djevojke, starci s djecom zajedno:

13 Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His splendor is above the earth and the heavens.

nek' svi hvale ime Jahvino, jer jedino je njegovo ime uzvišeno! Njegovo veličanstvo zemlju i nebo nadvisuje,

14 He has raised up a horn for His people, the praise of all His saints, of Israel, a people near to Him. Hallelujah!

on podiže snagu svom narodu, on proslavlja svete svoje, sinove Izraelove - narod njemu blizak. Aleluja!
