< Psalms 148 >

1 Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggaeus and Zacharias. Praise you the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the highest.
Lover Herren fra Himlene, lover ham i det høje!
2 Praise you him, all his angels: praise you him, all his hosts.
Lover ham, alle hans Engle! lover ham, alle hans Hærskarer!
3 Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all you stars and light.
Lover ham, Sol og Maane! lover ham, alle Lysets Stjerner!
4 Praise him, you heavens of heavens, and the water that is above the heavens.
Lover ham, Himlenes Himle! og I Vande, som ere over Himlene!
5 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
De skulle love Herrens Navn; thi han bød, og de bleve skabte.
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 har stillet dem hen for bestandig, evindelig; han satte dem en Lov, og den skal ikke overskrides.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth, you serpents, and all deeps.
Lover Herren fra Jorden, I Søuhyrer og alle Dyb!
8 Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy wind; the things that perform his word.
Ild og Hagel, Sne og Røg og Stormvejr, som udretter hans Ord!
9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
I Bjerge og alle Høje, Frugttræer og alle Cedre!
10 wild beasts, and all cattle; reptiles, and winged birds:
I vilde Dyr og alt Kvæg, Kryb og vingede Fugle!
11 kings of the earth, and all peoples; princes, and all judges of the earth:
I Konger paa Jorden og alle Folk, Fyrster og alle Dommere paa Jorden!
12 young men and virgins, old men with youths:
Unge Karle og Jomfruer tillige, de gamle med de 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 skulle love Herrens Navn; thi hans Navn alene er ophøjet, hans Majestæt 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 ophøjet et Horn for sit Folk, han, der er en Lovsang for alle sine hellige, for Israels Børn, det Folk, der er ham nær. Halleluja!
