Psalms 148
1 Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggaeus and Zacharias. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the highest.
Halleluja! Lov Herren fra himmelen, lov ham i det høie!
2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
Lov ham, alle hans engler, lov ham, all hans hær!
3 Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars and light.
Lov ham, sol og måne, lov ham, alle I lysende stjerner!
4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and the water that is above the heavens.
Lov ham, I himlenes himler og I vann som er ovenover himlene!
5 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
De skal love Herrens navn; for han bød, og de blev skapt,
6 He has established them for ever, even for ever and ever: he has made an ordinance, and it shall not pass away.
og han satte dem på deres sted for all tid, for evig; han gav en lov som ingen av dem overskrider.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth, ye serpents, and all deeps.
Lov Herren fra jorden, I store sjødyr og alle vanndyp,
8 Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy wind; the things that perform his word.
ild og hagl, sne og damp, stormvind, som setter hans ord i verk,
9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
I fjell og alle hauger, frukttrær og alle sedrer,
10 wild beasts, and all cattle; reptiles, and winged birds:
I ville dyr og alt fe, krypdyr og vingede fugler,
11 kings of the earth, and all peoples; princes, and all judges of the earth:
I jordens konger og alle folk, fyrster og alle jordens dommere,
12 young men and virgins, old men with youths:
unge menn og jomfruer, gamle sammen med unge!
13 let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name only is exalted; his praise is above the earth and heaven,
De skal love Herrens navn; for hans navn alene er ophøiet, hans herlighet er over jorden og himmelen,
14 and he shall exalt the horn of his people, [there is] a hymn for all his saints, [even] of the children of Israel, a people who draw near to him.
og han har ophøiet et horn for sitt folk til en lovsang for alle sine fromme, for Israels barn, det folk som er ham nær. Halleluja!
