Psalms 148
1 Praise ye Yah, Praise Yahweh, out of the heavens, Praise him, in the heights;
Bokumisa Yawe! Bokumisa Yawe wuta na likolo, bokumisa Ye na bisika oyo eleki likolo.
2 Praise him, all his messengers, Praise him, all his host;
Bokumisa Ye, bino ba-anjelu na Ye nyonso; bokumisa Ye, bino mampinga na Ye nyonso;
3 Praise him, sun and moon, Praise him, all ye stars of light;
bokumisa Ye, bino moyi mpe sanza; bokumisa Ye, bino minzoto nyonso oyo engengaka;
4 Praise him, O ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens;
bokumisa Ye, bino oyo boleki likolo kati na likolo, mpe bino mayi oyo bozali na likolo!
5 Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for, he, commanded, and they were created;
Tika ete ekumisa Kombo ya Yawe! Pamba te apesaki mitindo, mpe ekelamaki.
6 So caused he them to stand perpetually—age-abidingly, A decree, hath he given, and it passeth not beyond.
Atiaki yango mpo na libela; apesaki mibeko oyo ekobongwana te.
7 Praise Yahweh, out of the earth, sea monsters, and all resounding deeps;
Bokumisa Yawe wuta na mokili, ezala bilima ya mayi to mozindo nyonso,
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling his word;
ezala moto to mvula ya mabanga, ezala mvula ya pembe to londende, ezala mopepe makasi oyo ekokisaka liloba na Ye;
9 Ye mountains, and all hills, fruit trees, and all cedars;
ezala bangomba milayi to bangomba mikuse, ezala banzete oyo ebotaka bambuma to banzete ya sedele,
10 Thou wild-beast, and all ye cattle, crawling creature, and bird of wing;
ezala banyama ya zamba to bibwele nyonso, ezala bikelamu oyo etambolaka na libumu to bandeke,
11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Rulers, and all judges of earth;
ezala bakonzi ya mabele to bikolo nyonso, ezala bakambi to batambolisi nyonso ya mokili,
12 Young men, yea even virgins, elders, and children.
ezala bilenge mibali to bilenge basi, ezala bampaka to bana mike!
13 Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for lofty is his Name alone, His splendour is over earth and heavens.
Tika ete bakumisa Kombo ya Yawe! Pamba te Ye moko kaka nde aleki likolo; nkembo na Ye eleki mabele mpe likolo.
14 Therefore hath he exalted a horn for his people, a praise for all his men of lovingkindness, for the sons of Israel—a people near him, Praise ye Yah!
Abongisi elombe mokangoli mpo na bato na Ye! Ezali likambo oyo bayengebene na Ye nyonso, bana nyonso ya Isalaele, bato oyo balingaka Ye, basengeli kokumisa Yawe mpo na yango. Bokumisa Yawe!
