Psalms 148
1 Praise ye Jah! Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens, Praise ye Him in high places.
Whakamoemititia a Ihowa. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa i runga i nga rangi: whakamoemititia ia i nga wahi tiketike.
2 Praise ye Him, all His messengers, Praise ye Him, all His hosts.
Whakamoemititia ia, e ana anahera katoa: whakamoemititia ia, e ana mano whaioio.
3 Praise ye Him, sun and moon, Praise ye Him, all stars of light.
Whakamoemititia ia, e te ra, e te marama: whakamoemititia ia, e nga whetu whakamarama katoa.
4 Praise ye Him, heavens of heavens, And ye waters that are above the heavens.
Whakamoemititia ia, e nga rangi o nga rangi, e nga wai hoki o runga atu i nga rangi.
5 They do praise the name of Jehovah, For He commanded, and they were created.
Kia whakamoemititia e ratou te ingoa o Ihowa: nana hoki i whakahau, a kua hanga ratou.
6 And He establisheth them for ever to the age, A statute He gave, and they pass not over.
Nana hoki aua mea i whakapumau ake ake: i whakatakotoria e ia he tikanga e kore e taka.
7 Praise ye Jehovah from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
Whakamoemititia a Ihowa, i runga i te whenua, e nga tarakona, e nga rire katoa;
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, Whirlwind doing His word;
E te kapura, e te whatu; e te hukarere, e te kohu; e te tupuhi, e mahi nei i tana kupu;
9 The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,
E nga maunga, e nga puke katoa; e nga rakau hua, e nga hita katoa;
10 The wild beast, and all cattle, Creeping thing, and winged bird,
E nga kirehe, e nga kararehe katoa; e nga mea ngokingoki, e nga manu whai pakau:
11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,
E nga kingi o te whenua, e nga iwi katoa; e nga rangatira, e nga kaiwhakawa katoa o te whenua:
12 Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,
E nga taitama, e nga taitamahine; e nga koroheke ratou ko nga tamariki:
13 They praise the name of Jehovah, For His name alone hath been set on high, His honour [is] above earth and heavens.
Kia whakamoemititia e ratou te ingoa o Ihowa: nona anake hoki te ingoa e nui ana; kei runga ake i te whenua, i te rangi, tona kororia.
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!
Ko ia hoki te kaiwhakaara o te haona o tana iwi; e whakamoemititia ana e ana tangata tapu katoa; e nga tama a Iharaira, e te iwi e tata ana ki a ia. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
