< Halelu 148 >
1 E HALELU aku oukou ia Iehova, E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova, e na mea mai ka lani mai; E halelu aku ia ia ma na wahi kiekie.
Praise the Lord from the heavens, praise him in the heights.
2 E halelu aku ia ia, e kona poe anela a pau; E halelu aku oukou ia ia, e kona mau kaua a pau.
Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his hosts.
3 E halelu aku ia ia, o ka la, a me ka mahina; E halelu aku ia ia, e na hoku malamalama a pau.
Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all stars of light.
4 E halelu aku ia ia, e ka lani o na lani, E oukou hoi, na wai maluna o ka lani.
Praise him, you highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens.
5 E halelu aku lakou ia Iehova; No ka mea, kauoha mai la ia, a hanaia iho la lakou.
Let them praise the name of the Lord, for at his command they were made.
6 Ua hookumu paa mai oia ia lakou, a i ka manawa pau ole: Ua haawi mai oe i ka mokuna, aole lakou hele ae ma ia aoao aku.
And he fixed them for ever and ever by a law which they dare not transgress.
7 E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova, mai ka honua ae, E na moonui, a me na wahi hohonu a pau:
Praise the Lord from the earth: you depths, with your monsters, all.
8 Ke ahi, ka huahekili, ka hau, a me ka mahu, Ka makani ino, e hooko ana i kana olelo;
Fire, hail, snow and ice, and stormy wind doing his word.
9 Na kuahiwi, me na mauna a pau; Na laau hua, a me na kedera a pau;
All you mountains and hills, all you fruit trees and cedars,
10 Na holoholona hihiu, a me na holoholona laka a pau; Na mea kolo, a me na manu lele;
all you wild beasts and tame, creeping things, birds on the wing.
11 Na'lii o ka honua, a me na lahuikanaka a pau; Na kaukaualii, a me na lunakanawai a pau o ka honua;
All you kings and nations of earth; all you princes and judges of earth:
12 Na kanaka opiopio, a me na kaikamahine; Ka poe kahiko, a me na keiki;
young men and maidens together, old men and children together.
13 E halelu aku lakou i ka inoa o Iehova; No ka mea, o kona inoa wale no ka i hookiekieia: Ua kiekie hoi kona nani maluna o ka honua a me ka lani.
Let them praise the name of the Lord, for his name alone is exalted. Over heaven and earth is his glory.
14 Ua hookiekie oia i ka pepeiaohao o kona poe kanaka, Oia ka nani o kona poe haipule a pau; O na mamo hoi o ka Iseraela, He poe kanaka e noho kokoke ana ia ia. E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova.
He has lifted his people to honor. Wherefore this chorus of praise from his saints, from Israel, the people who stand in his fellowship. Hallelujah.
