Psalms 148

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

Aleluja! Hvalite Jahvu s nebesa, hvalite ga u visinama!

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

Hvalite ga, svi anđeli njegovi, hvalite ga, sve vojske njegove!

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

Hvalite ga, sunce i mjeseče, hvalite ga, sve zvijezde svjetlosne!

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

Hvalite ga, nebesa nebeska, i vode nad svodom nebeskim!

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

Neka hvale ime Jahvino jer on zapovjedi i postadoše.

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

Postavi ih zauvijek i dovijeka po zakonu koji neće proći.

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

Hvalite Jahvu sa zemlje, nemani morske i svi bezdani!

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

Ognju i grÓade, sniježe i maglo, olujni vjetre, što riječ njegovu izvršavaš!

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

Gore i svi brežuljci, plodonosna stabla i svi cedrovi!

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

Zvijeri i sve životinje, gmizavci i ptice krilate!

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

Zemaljski kraljevi i svi narodi, knezovi i suci zemaljski!

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

Mladići i djevojke, starci s djecom zajedno:

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

nek' svi hvale ime Jahvino, jer jedino je njegovo ime uzvišeno! Njegovo veličanstvo zemlju i nebo nadvisuje,

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!

on podiže snagu svom narodu, on proslavlja svete svoje, sinove Izraelove - narod njemu blizak. Aleluja!
