< Psalms 148 >

1 Hallelujah. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights.
Halleluja! Pris HERREN i Himlen, pris ham i det høje!
2 Praise ye Him, all His angels; praise ye Him, all His hosts.
Pris ham, alle hans Engle, pris ham, alle hans Hærskarer,
3 Praise ye Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all ye stars of light.
pris ham, Sol og Maane, pris ham, hver lysende Stjerne,
4 Praise Him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
pris ham, Himlenes Himle og Vandene over Himlene!
5 Let them praise the name of the LORD; for He commanded, and they were created.
De skal prise HERRENS Navn, thi han bød, og de blev skabt;
6 He hath also established them for ever and ever; He hath made a decree which shall not be transgressed.
han gav dem deres Plads for evigt, han gav en Lov, som de ej overtræder!
7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;
Lad Pris stige op til HERREN fra Jorden, I Havdyr og alle Dyb,
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling His word;
Ild og Hagl, Sne og Røg, Storm, som gør, hvad han siger,
9 Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars;
I Bjerge og alle Høje, Frugttræer og alle Cedre,
10 Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;
I vilde Dyr og alt Kvæg, Krybdyr og vingede Fugle,
11 Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;
I Jordens Konger og alle Folkeslag, Fyrster og alle Jordens Dommere,
12 Both young men and maidens, old men and children;
Ynglinge sammen med Jomfruer, gamle sammen med unge!
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven.
De skal prise HERRENS Navn, thi ophøjet er hans Navn alene, hans Højhed omspænder Jord og Himmel.
14 And He hath lifted up a horn for His people, a praise for all His saints, even for the children of Israel, a people near unto Him. Hallelujah.
Han løfter et Horn for sit Folk, lovprist af alle sine fromme, af Israels Børn, det Folk, der staar ham nær. Halleluja!
