Psalms 148

1 Praise YAH! Praise YHWH from the heavens, Praise Him in high places.

Hvalite Gospoda. Hvalite Gospoda iz nebes, hvalite ga na višavah.

2 Praise Him, all His messengers, Praise Him, all His hosts.

Hvalite ga, vsi njegovi angeli, hvalite ga, vse njegove vojske.

3 Praise Him, sun and moon, Praise Him, all stars of light.

Hvalita ga, sonce in luna, hvalite ga vse ve zvezdne luči.

4 Praise Him, heavens of heavens, And you waters that are above the heavens.

Hvalite ga, ve nebes nebesa in ve vode, ki ste nad nebom.

5 They praise the Name of YHWH, For He commanded, and they were created.

Naj hvalijo Gospodovo ime, kajti ukazal je in bili so ustvarjeni.

6 And He establishes them forever and for all time, He gave a statute, and they do not pass over.

Tudi njih je utrdil na veke vekov; naredil je odlok, ki ne bo minil.

7 Praise YHWH from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,

Hvalite Gospoda z zemlje, vi zmaji in vse globine,

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapor, Whirlwind doing His word;

ogenj in toča, sneg in meglica, viharni veter, izpolnjujoč njegovo besedo,

9 The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,

gore in vsi hribi, rodovitna drevesa in vse cedre,

10 The wild beast, and all livestock, Creeping thing, and winged bird,

živali in vsa živina, plazeče stvari in leteča perjad,

11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,

kralji zemlje in vsi ljudje, princi in vsi zemeljski sodniki,

12 Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,

tako mladeniči kakor mladenke, starci in otroci;

13 They praise the Name of YHWH, For His Name alone has been set on high, His splendor [is] above earth and heavens.

naj hvalijo Gospodovo ime, kajti njegovo ime samó je odlično; njegova slava je nad zemljo in nebom.

14 And He exalts the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, A people near Him. Praise YAH!

Povišuje tudi rog svojega ljudstva, hvalo vseh njegovih svetih, celó Izraelovih otrok, ljudstva blizu njemu. Hvalite Gospoda.
