1 Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord's reputation! Praise the Lord, all you servants of the Lord

2 who worship in the house of the Lord, in the courts of our God.
您們服役於上主聖殿的，您們侍立在我主前庭的，
3 Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing praises to his character because it is wonderful!

5 I know how great the Lord is—our Lord is greater than all gods.

6 The Lord does whatever he wants throughout heaven and earth, on the seas and in the ocean depths.
上天及下地，海洋深淵的任何化工，上主只要願意，無一不由祂造成。
7 He causes the clouds to rise all over the earth, he makes lightning flash and give rain, he sends the winds from his storehouses.
祂使雲彩由地面現露，祂使電光閃爍而成雨，祂使清風由寶庫發出。

10 He struck down many nations, he killed powerful kings, such as
祂擊敗了列國的萬民，祂殺死了強盛的國君：
11 Sihon, king of the Amorites, Og, king of Bashan, and all the kings who ruled in Canaan.

13 Your reputation, Lord, stands forever; you, Lord, are remembered for all generations.

14 The Lord will vindicate his people; he will show compassion to those who follow him.

15 The idols of the foreign nations are only objects of silver and gold, made by human hands.
異民的偶像，無非金銀，只是人手中的製造品：
16 They have mouths, but can't speak; they have eyes, but can't see.
偶像有口，而不能言；偶像有眼，而不能看；
17 They have ears, but can't hear; they can't even breathe!
偶像有耳，而聽不見；偶像有鼻，而無氣喘。
18 Those who make idols will become just like them, and so will everyone who trusts in them.
鑄造偶像的人，將與偶像同亡，凡信賴偶像的人，也將是一樣。
19 People of Israel, praise the Lord! Descendants of Aaron, praise the Lord!
以色列家族，請讚頌上主！亞郎家族，請讚頌上主！
20 Levites, praise the Lord! Everyone who worships the Lord, praise the Lord!
肋末的家族，請讚頌上主！敬愛上主的人讚頌上主！
21 Praise the Lord from Zion, for he lives in Jerusalem! Praise the Lord!
住在耶路撒冷的君王，願他由熙雍承受讚頌！
