< Sòm 148 >

1 Louwe SENYÈ a! Louwe SENYÈ a soti nan syèl yo! Louwe Li kote ki wo yo!
Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise ye him in the high places.
2 Louwe Li, tout zanj Li yo. Louwe Li tout lame Li yo!
Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
3 Louwe Li, solèy ak lalin nan. Louwe Li, tout zetwal ki limen yo!
Praise ye him, O sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.
4 Louwe Li, pi wo syèl yo, ak dlo ki anwo syèl yo.
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens: and let all the waters that are above the heavens
5 Kite yo louwe non SENYÈ a, paske Li te pase lòd, e sa te fèt.
Praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they were made: he commanded, and they were created.
6 Anplis, Li te etabli yo jis pou tout tan. Li te pase yon dekrè ki p ap janm disparèt.
He hath established them for ever, and for ages of ages: he hath made a decree, and it shall not pass away.
7 Louwe SENYÈ a soti sou latè, gwo bèt voras lanmè a ak tout fon an.
Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all ye deeps:
8 Dife ak lagrèl, lanèj ak nwaj, van tanpèt ki akonpli pawòl Li yo.
Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy winds which fulfill his word:
9 Mòn yo ak tout kolin yo, pye fwi yo ak tout pye sèd yo,
Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars:
10 Bèt sovaj yo ak tout bèt chan yo, sa ki trennen atè ak bèt ki vole yo,
Beasts and all cattle: serpents and feathered fowls:
11 wa latè yo ak tout pèp yo, prens yo ak tout jij latè yo,
Kings of the earth and all people: princes and all judges of the earth:
12 ni jennonm, ni vyèj, granmoun ak timoun.
Young men and maidens: let the old with the younger, praise the name of the Lord:
13 Kite yo louwe non SENYÈ a, paske se sèl non Li ki leve wo. Glwa Li pi wo tè a ak syèl la.
For his name alone is exalted.
14 Li te leve yon kòn pou pèp Li a, Lwanj pou tout fidèl Li yo, menm pou fis Israël yo, yon pèp toupre Li. Louwe SENYÈ a.
The praise of him is above heaven and earth: and he hath exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his saints: to the children of Israel, a people approaching to him. Alleluia.
