< Psalms 148 >
1 Hallelujah. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights.
Mou fakamālō kia Sihova. Mou fakamālō kia Sihova mei he ngaahi langi: fakamālō ki heʻene ʻafio ʻi he ngaahi potu māʻolunga.
2 Praise ye Him, all His angels; praise ye Him, all His hosts.
Mou fakamālō kiate ia, ʻa ʻene kau ʻāngelo kotoa pē: mou fakamālō kiate ia, ʻa ʻene ngaahi kautau kotoa pē.
3 Praise ye Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all ye stars of light.
Mo fakamālō kiate ia, ʻae laʻā mo e māhina: mou fakamālō kiate ia, ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu kotoa pē ʻoe maama.
4 Praise Him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
Mou fakamālō kiate ia, ʻae ngaahi langi ʻoe ngaahi langi, mo e ngaahi vai ʻoku māʻolunga ʻi he ngaahi langi.
5 Let them praise the name of the LORD; for He commanded, and they were created.
Kenau fakamālō ki he huafa ʻo Sihova: he naʻe fekau ʻe ia, pea naʻe fakatupu ʻakinautolu.
6 He hath also established them for ever and ever; He hath made a decree which shall not be transgressed.
Pea kuo ne fokotuʻumaʻu ʻakinautolu ʻo lauikuonga pea taʻengata. Kuo ne tuʻutuʻuni pea ʻe ʻikai mole ia.
7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;
Fakamālō kia Sihova mei māmani, ʻae fanga talākoni, mo e ngaahi loloto kotoa pē:
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling His word;
ʻAe afi, mo e ʻuha maka; ʻae ʻuha hinehina, mo e ngaahi kakapu; ʻae matangi mālohi ʻoku fakamoʻoni ki heʻene folofola:
9 Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars;
ʻAe ngaahi moʻunga, mo e ngaahi foʻi moʻunga kotoa pē; ʻae ngaahi ʻakau fua, mo e ngaahi sita kotoa pē:
10 Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;
ʻAe fanga manu hehengi, mo e manu lalata kotoa pē; ʻae ngaahi meʻa totolo, mo e manupuna:
11 Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;
ʻAe ngaahi tuʻi ʻo māmani, mo e kakai kotoa pē; ʻae ngaahi ʻeiki, mo e kau fakamaau kotoa pē ʻo māmani:
12 Both young men and maidens, old men and children;
ʻAe kau tangata talavou, mo e kau taʻahine; ʻae kau mātuʻa, mo e fānau:
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven.
Ke nau fakamālō ki he huafa ʻo Sihova: he ko hono huafa pē ʻoku māʻolunga; mo hono nāunau ʻoku māʻolunga hake ia ʻi māmani mo e langi.
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.
ʻOku hiki hake foki ʻe ia ʻae nifo ʻo hono kakai, ko ia ʻoku fakamālō ai ʻa ʻene kakai māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē; ʻio, ʻa hono kakai ko ʻIsileli, ko e kakai ʻoku ofi kiate ia. Mou fakamālō kia Sihova.
