< Psalms 148 >

1 Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh from the heavens! Praise him in the heights!
Msifuni Bwana. Msifuni Bwana kutoka mbinguni, msifuni juu vileleni.
2 Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army!
Msifuni, enyi malaika wake wote, msifuni yeye, enyi jeshi lake lote la mbinguni.
3 Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
Msifuni yeye, enyi jua na mwezi, msifuni yeye, enyi nyota zote zingʼaazo.
4 Praise him, you heavens of heavens, you waters that are above the heavens.
Msifuni yeye, enyi mbingu zilizo juu sana, na ninyi maji juu ya anga.
5 Let them praise Yahweh’s name, for he commanded, and they were created.
Vilisifu jina la Bwana kwa maana aliamuru navyo vikaumbwa.
6 He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.
Aliviweka mahali pake milele na milele, alitoa amri ambayo haibadiliki milele.
7 Praise Yahweh from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths,
Mtukuzeni Bwana kutoka duniani, ninyi viumbe vikubwa vya baharini na vilindi vyote vya bahari,
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, stormy wind, fulfilling his word,
umeme wa radi na mvua ya mawe, theluji na mawingu, pepo za dhoruba zinazofanya amri zake,
9 mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,
ninyi milima na vilima vyote, miti ya matunda na mierezi yote,
10 wild animals and all livestock, small creatures and flying birds,
wanyama wa mwituni na mifugo yote, viumbe vidogo na ndege warukao,
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth,
wafalme wa dunia na mataifa yote, ninyi wakuu na watawala wote wa dunia,
12 both young men and maidens, old men and children.
wanaume vijana na wanawali, wazee na watoto.
13 Let them praise Yahweh’s name, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
Wote na walisifu jina la Bwana, kwa maana jina lake pekee limetukuka, utukufu wake uko juu ya nchi na mbingu.
14 He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints, even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise Yah!
Amewainulia watu wake pembe, sifa ya watakatifu wake wote, ya Israeli, watu walio karibu na moyo wake. Msifuni Bwana.
