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 ye Jah! Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens, Praise ye Him in high places.
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 ye Him, all His messengers, Praise ye 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 ye Him, sun and moon, Praise ye 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 ye Him, heavens of heavens, And ye waters that are above the heavens.
5 E halelu aku lakou ia Iehova; No ka mea, kauoha mai la ia, a hanaia iho la lakou.
They do praise the name of Jehovah, For He commanded, and they were created.
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 establisheth them for ever to the age, A statute He gave, and they pass not over.
7 E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova, mai ka honua ae, E na moonui, a me na wahi hohonu a pau:
Praise ye Jehovah from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
8 Ke ahi, ka huahekili, ka hau, a me ka mahu, Ka makani ino, e hooko ana i kana olelo;
Fire and hail, snow and vapour, Whirlwind doing His word;
9 Na kuahiwi, me na mauna a pau; Na laau hua, a me na kedera a pau;
The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,
10 Na holoholona hihiu, a me na holoholona laka a pau; Na mea kolo, a me na manu lele;
The wild beast, and all cattle, Creeping thing, and winged bird,
11 Na'lii o ka honua, a me na lahuikanaka a pau; Na kaukaualii, a me na lunakanawai a pau o ka honua;
Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,
12 Na kanaka opiopio, a me na kaikamahine; Ka poe kahiko, a me na keiki;
Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,
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.
They praise the name of Jehovah, For His name alone hath been set on high, His honour [is] above earth and heavens.
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.
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!
