1 Goocai Jehova. Goocai Jehova mũrĩ kũu igũrũ, mũmũgooce mũrĩ kũu gũtũũgĩru mũno.
PRAISE ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
2 Mũgoocei, inyuĩ araika ake othe, mũmũgooce, inyuothe mbũtũ ciake cia igũrũ.
Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
3 Mũgoocei, inyuĩ riũa na mweri, mũgoocei, inyuothe njata iria icangararaga.
Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
4 Mũgoocei, inyuĩ igũrũ rĩa igũrũ, o na inyuĩ maaĩ ma kũu igũrũ wa matu.
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
5 Indo ciothe nĩikĩgooce rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe wathanire na cio ikĩgĩa kuo.
Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.
6 Aaciigire handũ hacio itũũre ho tene na tene; aaheanire kĩrĩra kĩa watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo kĩrĩa gĩtagathira.
He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Goocai Jehova gũkũ thĩ, inyuĩ ciũmbe cia iria-inĩ, na ũriku wothe wa maria marĩa manene,
Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
8 rũheni, na mbura ya mbembe, na tharunji, na matu, na ihuhũkanio cia huho iria ihingagia kĩrĩra gĩake,
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
9 inyuĩ irĩma, na tũrĩma tuothe, na mĩtĩ ya matunda, na mĩtarakwa yothe,
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
10 nyamũ cia gĩthaka, na ngʼombe ciothe, na ciũmbe iria nini, o na nyoni iria ciũmbũkaga,
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
11 athamaki a thĩ, na ndũrĩrĩ ciothe, na inyuĩ anene, na aathani othe a thĩ,
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 aanake, na airĩtu, na andũ arĩa akũrũ, o na ciana.
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
13 Othe nĩmagoocage rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova, nĩgũkorwo rĩĩtwa rĩake riiki nĩrĩo rĩtũũgĩrie; riiri wake ũrĩ igũrũ rĩa thĩ o na rĩa matu.
Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
14 Nĩambararĩtie rũhĩa nĩ ũndũ wa andũ ake, nĩruo ũgooci wa andũ ake arĩa aamũre, nĩo andũ a Isiraeli, andũ arĩa marĩ hakuhĩ na ngoro yake. Goocai Jehova.
He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the Lord.
