1 Goocai Jehova. Goocai Jehova mũrĩ kũu igũrũ, mũmũgooce mũrĩ kũu gũtũũgĩru mũno.
Praise the Lord from the heavens, praise him in the heights.
2 Mũgoocei, inyuĩ araika ake othe, mũmũgooce, inyuothe mbũtũ ciake cia igũrũ.
Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his hosts.
3 Mũgoocei, inyuĩ riũa na mweri, mũgoocei, inyuothe njata iria icangararaga.
Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all stars of light.
4 Mũgoocei, inyuĩ igũrũ rĩa igũrũ, o na inyuĩ maaĩ ma kũu igũrũ wa matu.
Praise him, you highest heavens, and you waters 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 at his command they were made.
6 Aaciigire handũ hacio itũũre ho tene na tene; aaheanire kĩrĩra kĩa watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo kĩrĩa gĩtagathira.
And he fixed them for ever and ever by a law which they dare not transgress.
7 Goocai Jehova gũkũ thĩ, inyuĩ ciũmbe cia iria-inĩ, na ũriku wothe wa maria marĩa manene,
Praise the Lord from the earth: you depths, with your monsters, all.
8 rũheni, na mbura ya mbembe, na tharunji, na matu, na ihuhũkanio cia huho iria ihingagia kĩrĩra gĩake,
Fire, hail, snow and ice, and stormy wind doing his word.
9 inyuĩ irĩma, na tũrĩma tuothe, na mĩtĩ ya matunda, na mĩtarakwa yothe,
All you mountains and hills, all you fruit trees and cedars,
10 nyamũ cia gĩthaka, na ngʼombe ciothe, na ciũmbe iria nini, o na nyoni iria ciũmbũkaga,
all you wild beasts and tame, creeping things, birds on the wing.
11 athamaki a thĩ, na ndũrĩrĩ ciothe, na inyuĩ anene, na aathani othe a thĩ,
All you kings and nations of earth; all you princes and judges of earth:
12 aanake, na airĩtu, na andũ arĩa akũrũ, o na ciana.
young men and maidens together, old men and children together.
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 exalted. Over heaven and earth is his glory.
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 has lifted his people to honour. Wherefore this chorus of praise from his saints, from Israel, the people who stand in his fellowship. Hallelujah.
