< Psalms 148 >

1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord from the heavens. Praise him on the heights.
Aleluja! Hvalite Jahvu s nebesa, hvalite ga u visinama!
2 Praise him, all his Angels. Praise him, all his hosts.
Hvalite ga, svi anđeli njegovi, hvalite ga, sve vojske njegove!
3 Praise him, sun and moon. Praise him, all stars and light.
Hvalite ga, sunce i mjeseče, hvalite ga, sve zvijezde svjetlosne!
4 Praise him, heavens of the heavens. And let all the waters that are above the heavens
Hvalite ga, nebesa nebeska, i vode nad svodom nebeskim!
5 praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they became. He commanded, and they were created.
Neka hvale ime Jahvino jer on zapovjedi i postadoše.
6 He has stationed them in eternity, and for age after age. He has established a precept, and it will not pass away.
Postavi ih zauvijek i dovijeka po zakonu koji neće proći.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth: you dragons and all deep places,
Hvalite Jahvu sa zemlje, nemani morske i svi bezdani!
8 fire, hail, snow, ice, windstorms, which do his word,
Ognju i grÓade, sniježe i maglo, olujni vjetre, što riječ njegovu izvršavaš!
9 mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars,
Gore i svi brežuljci, plodonosna stabla i svi cedrovi!
10 wild beasts and all cattle, serpents and feathered flying things,
Zvijeri i sve životinje, gmizavci i ptice krilate!
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, leaders and all judges of the earth,
Zemaljski kraljevi i svi narodi, knezovi i suci zemaljski!
12 young men and virgins. Let the older men with the younger men, praise the name of the Lord.
Mladići i djevojke, starci s djecom zajedno:
13 For his name alone is exalted.
nek' svi hvale ime Jahvino, jer jedino je njegovo ime uzvišeno! Njegovo veličanstvo zemlju i nebo nadvisuje,
14 Confession of him is beyond heaven and earth, and he has exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his holy ones, to the sons of Israel, to a people close to him. Alleluia.
on podiže snagu svom narodu, on proslavlja svete svoje, sinove Izraelove - narod njemu blizak. Aleluja!
