< Psalms 148 >
1 Praise ye Yah, Praise Yahweh, out of the heavens, Praise him, in the heights;
Mutendereze Mukama! Mumutendereze nga musinziira mu ggulu, mumutenderereze mu bifo ebiri waggulu.
2 Praise him, all his messengers, Praise him, all his host;
Mumutendereze mmwe mwenna bamalayika be, mumutendereze mmwe mwenna eggye lye ery’omu ggulu.
3 Praise him, sun and moon, Praise him, all ye stars of light;
Mmwe enjuba n’omwezi mutendereze Mukama, nammwe mwenna emmunyeenye ezaaka mumutendereze.
4 Praise him, O ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens;
Tendereza Mukama ggwe eggulu eriri waggulu ennyo, naawe amazzi agali waggulu w’eggulu.
5 Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for, he, commanded, and they were created;
Leka byonna bitendereze erinnya lya Mukama! Kubanga ye yalagira, ne bitondebwa.
6 So caused he them to stand perpetually—age-abidingly, A decree, hath he given, and it passeth not beyond.
Yabinywereza ddala mu bifo byabyo ennaku zonna, n’ateekawo etteeka eritaliggwaawo.
7 Praise Yahweh, out of the earth, sea monsters, and all resounding deeps;
Mumutendereze nga musinziira ku nsi, mmwe balukwata n’ebifo byonna eby’omu buziba bw’ennyanja,
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling his word;
mmwe okumyansa, n’omuzira ogw’amakerenda, n’omuzira ogukutte era n’olufu, naawe kikuŋŋunta, mugondere ekiragiro kye,
9 Ye mountains, and all hills, fruit trees, and all cedars;
mmwe agasozi n’obusozi, emiti egy’ebibala n’emivule;
10 Thou wild-beast, and all ye cattle, crawling creature, and bird of wing;
ensolo ez’omu nsiko era n’ente zonna, ebyewalula n’ebinyonyi ebibuuka,
11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Rulers, and all judges of earth;
bakabaka b’ensi n’amawanga gonna, abalangira n’abafuzi bonna ab’ensi,
12 Young men, yea even virgins, elders, and children.
abavubuka abalenzi n’abawala; abantu abakulu n’abaana abato.
13 Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for lofty is his Name alone, His splendour is over earth and heavens.
Bitendereze erinnya lya Mukama, kubanga erinnya lye lyokka lye ligulumizibwa; ekitiibwa kye kisinga byonna eby’omu nsi n’eby’omu ggulu.
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!
Abantu be abawadde amaanyi, era agulumizizza abatukuvu be, be bantu be Isirayiri abakolagana naye. Mutendereze Mukama.
