1 Praise ye Jah! Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens, Praise ye Him in high places.

亞肋路亞！請您們在天上讚美上主，請您們在高處讚美上主！

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

上主的眾天使，請讚美上主；上主的一切聖者，請讚美上主！

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

太陽和月亮，請讚美上主；燦爛的諸星，請讚美上主！

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

天上的諸天，請讚美上主；天上的雨水，請讚美上主！

5 They do praise the name of Jehovah, For He commanded, and they were created.

願它們齊來讚美上主的名號！因為上主一命令，它們立刻受造。

6 And He establisheth them for ever to the age, A statute He gave, and they pass not over.

他確定的位置，留至永恒，他頒部的規律，永不變更。

7 Praise ye Jehovah from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,

請您們在地上讚美上主：海怪和海深處的眾水族，

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

還有電火與冰雹，白雪和雲霧，以及遵行他命令的狂風暴雨。

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

山岳和一切丘陵，果樹與各種柏松，

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

野獸和一切畜牲，各種爬蟲和鳥類，

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

世上的列王和萬民，地上的元首與公卿，

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

少年人和童貞女，老年人與兒童侶，

13 They praise the name of Jehovah, For His name alone hath been set on high, His honour [is] above earth and heavens.

請您們讚美上主的名字，因為只有他的名字高貴，他的尊嚴遠遠超越天地，

14 And He exalteth the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, a people near Him. Praise ye Jah!

上主使自己百姓的頭角高聳，他是他自己一切聖徒的讚頌，即接近他的以色列民的光榮。
