你們要讚美耶和華! 從天上讚美耶和華, 在高處讚美他!
2 Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army!
他的眾使者都要讚美他! 他的諸軍都要讚美他!
3 Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
日頭月亮,你們要讚美他! 放光的星宿,你們都要讚美他!
4 Praise him, you heavens of heavens, you waters that are above the heavens.
天上的天和天上的水, 你們都要讚美他!
5 Let them praise the LORD’s name, for he commanded, and they were created.
願這些都讚美耶和華的名! 因他一吩咐便都造成。
6 He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.
他將這些立定,直到永永遠遠; 他定了命,不能廢去。
7 Praise the LORD from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths,
所有在地上的, 大魚和一切深洋,
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, stormy wind, fulfilling his word,
火與冰雹,雪和霧氣, 成就他命的狂風,
9 mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,
大山和小山, 結果的樹木和一切香柏樹,
10 wild animals and all livestock, small creatures and flying birds,
野獸和一切牲畜, 昆蟲和飛鳥,
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth,
世上的君王和萬民, 首領和世上一切審判官,
12 both young men and maidens, old men and children.
少年人和處女, 老年人和孩童, 都當讚美耶和華!
13 Let them praise the LORD’s name, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
願這些都讚美耶和華的名! 因為獨有他的名被尊崇; 他的榮耀在天地之上。
14 He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his holy ones, even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise the LORD!
他將他百姓的角高舉, 因此他一切聖民以色列人, 就是與他相近的百姓,都讚美他! 你們要讚美耶和華!
